Psychiatric Mental Health NP

Virtual • North Andover, MA


Welcome! I’m Haruna Maliani, a board-certified Psychiatric-Mental Health Nurse Practitioner (PMHNP-BC). My passion for mental healthcare is rooted in a deep respect for human resilience and a belief that everyone deserves compassionate, evidence-based care tailored to their unique journey.

With an extensive background in both inpatient and outpatient psychiatric settings, I specialize in diagnosing, treating, and managing a wide range of mental health conditions—including depression, anxiety disorders, bipolar disorder, ADHD, PTSD/trauma, and stress management. I work primarily with adults and young adults from diverse cultural and socioeconomic backgrounds.

I view mental wellness through a holistic lens: your biology, lifestyle, relationships, and environment all play a role in your overall well-being. My goal is to provide a safe, non-judgmental space where you feel truly heard and empowered to take an active role in your healing process.

Hello, I’m Adedayo, a board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner with over 10 years of healthcare experience including experienced across medical-surgical, skilled nursing, inpatient psychiatric care, and addiction medicine settings. I earned my Bachelor of Science in Nursing from the University of Massachusetts Boston and my Master’s degree in Psychiatric Mental Health from South College in Tennessee.

My approach integrates comprehensive psychiatric assessment, personalized medication management, and brief therapeutic interventions to provide holistic, evidence-based care.

I believe mental health treatment should feel collaborative, respectful, and empowering. My goal is to create a safe, stigma-free space where you feel heard and supported. I value shared decision-making, open communication, and individualized care plans that reflect your unique needs and strengths.

Above all, I am committed to helping you build resilience, restore balance, and move toward a more fulfilling and meaningful life.
