Psychiatric Mental Health NP

I specialize in treating bipolar disorder, depression, and anxiety, with a particular focus on ADHD. My approach centers on compassion, honesty, and cultural competence. I want every client to feel genuinely seen and understood, not just heard. Many of the people I work with come to me feeling overwhelmed, depressed, or caught in cycles of mood instability, often after carrying those feelings alone for a long time. I bring patience and clear, effective communication to every session, so you never feel rushed or unsure of what comes next in your care.

Adrienne Better

Therapist

Virtual • Baltimore, MD


Therapy doesn’t have to feel like sitting across from someone who simply nods and asks, “How does that make you feel?” I’m Adrienne, and I bring warmth, honesty, and real conversation into the therapy room. I work with adults navigating anxiety, depression, trauma, grief, ADHD, relationship and family challenges, low self-esteem, and major life changes. My clients often appreciate that I truly listen, but I’m also willing to gently challenge you when it can help you see something differently. You can come as you are, without having the perfect words or a clear plan for what needs to change.
