It takes two to speak the truth: one to speak, and another to hear - Thoreau
I strive to help clients by being curious, kind, reliable, and insightful. This is how I believe therapy helps people to grow, and to ultimately feel better about themselves and their lives.
I primarily work through a psychodynamic lens, focusing on a client's emotional life, exploring connections between a client's past and present, and addressing internal conflicts. I also use ideas found in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy such as exploring thought patterns and negative core beliefs.
Hi. My name is Sheila and I am passionate about helping people. I have 10 years of experience working with clients from diverse backgrounds with a variety of concerns.
I am a Board-Certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner (PMHNP-BC) dedicated to providing compassionate, evidence-based mental health care in a supportive and judgement free environment. I work with adolescents and adults experiencing anxiety, depression, using collaborative care approach to personalized treatment plans that aligns with each client's goals. I believe that every person deserve to feel heard and empowered. My goal is to help you build resilience, improve your well-being, and achieve lasting, meaningful change.
I’m Magenecka, a board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner with a Master of Science in Nursing and several years of nursing experience. I care for adults ages 18 and older throughout Massachusetts via telehealth, supporting concerns including anxiety, depression, ADHD, bipolar disorder, and trauma-related symptoms. Whether you’re seeking support for the first time or looking for the right fit, you deserve to feel heard and welcomed without judgment. I believe your care should reflect who you are, not just your diagnosis.
As a psychiatric nurse practitioner, my goal is to treat the illness and not the symptoms. I specialize in working with adults experiencing depression and anxiety, and I focus on care that does not rely on medications that can be addicting or create dependence. For the past decade, I have helped clients feel more informed, more supported, and more hopeful about what healing can look like. I want our work together to feel thoughtful, personal, and grounded in what matters most to you, not just a list of symptoms or a quick fix. I work to understand the whole picture of your life so care feels meaningful, steady, and deeply your own.
Welcome ! I’m Telisa Taylor, PMHNP-BC, a board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner with advanced training in psychiatric assessment, medication management, and trauma-informed care. My background includes working with diverse populations in outpatient and community settings, which has given me a deep understanding of both complex mental health needs and everyday life stressors.
I specialize in supporting teens, adults, professionals, and parents who are navigating stress, anxiety, depression, trauma, mood disorders, psychosis, and life transitions. My practice blends medication, therapy, and coaching to treat the whole person and create a personalized path toward stability and wellness.
Above all, clients should know that my style is warm, approachable, and relatable—and that their comfort, safety, and growth are always my top priorities.
