I am a psychotherapist, licensed in Massachusetts and Vermont. I work with children/adolescents (8 years and older), and adults. I have experience working with individuals from a variety of cultural backgrounds.

To inquire about availability please send me a message.
We all need connection, community, and the ability to be our authentic selves in order to thrive. Many of us are not provided these attachment needs in childhood, and we grow into adulthood burdened by this wounding, unsure of how to relate safely and from a place of wholeness. If you struggle to align your inner and outer worlds, find yourself repeating difficult relational patterns, or feel as if your authentic self must remain hidden, I would love to work with you. I am particularly interested in supporting the health of queer families and cooperatives.
Seeing Patients in MA and NH. About me, For YOU! I'm a Board-Certified Psychiatric Nurse Practitioner and a Board certified Family Nurse Practitioner. My current specialty is treating patients with anxiety, depression and PTSD. Opioid use disorder with suboxone. As a provider I like to collaborate with my patients as to their desires and the direction they want to take on their journey to wellness. I like to take a conservative approach. In addition to any medications that may be prescribed, therapy is encouraged to all patients. I believe in mindfulness, exercise, and behavioral therapies.
I have worked in several clinical and therapeutic settings including working in private practice for several years, and having had the unique opportunity to work with underprivileged folks in a correctional setting both in an individual therapy and group therapy capacity. These unique experiences have given me the opportunity to work across a variety of settings and acquire a multidisciplinary approach for individuals with unique and specific needs.
Hello, my name is Inyang Mercy, and I’m a Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner who values compassion, respect, and individualized care.

I take the time to understand each client’s unique experiences, concerns, and goals and believe in building a trusting relationship that supports meaningful progress and long-term well-being.
I’m a licensed mental health counselor based in Massachusetts, and I work with teens through adults through virtual therapy. In addition to my clinical experience writing assessments for a juvenile facility, I bring a background in education and business to my work. I’m drawn to therapy because of the meaningful relationships it creates and the opportunity to help people move toward their goals. My hope is to offer a warm, supportive space where you feel heard and understood.
I believe therapy works best when there is a strong connection between therapist and client. My style is warm, genuine, and direct. I'll offer compassion and support, but I'll also help you recognize patterns that may be keeping you stuck.
As a trauma-informed therapist and EMDR specialist, I create a space where you can be yourself without judgment. Clients often tell me they feel comfortable with me quickly because I show up as a real person—not just a therapist.
I believe healing happens through both insight and action. My goal is to help you feel more grounded, confident, and empowered to create meaningful change in your life.
