Nice to meet you!
I’m Lunie Joseph, PMHNP-BC, a board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner providing compassionate, evidence-based care to adolescents and adults. I specialize in anxiety, depression, ADHD, bipolar disorder, schizophrenia, PTSD, and OCD.
I am an LICSW with 33 years of experience, including over a decade of leadership and supervising clinical staff in community mental health programs. After earning my MSW from Simmons College, I focused my practice on helping adults of all ages navigate complex life transitions, depression, anxiety, and intense emotions. I provide practical, real-world skills to help you manage stress and build emotional balance. My extensive clinical background allows me to provide deeply knowledgeable, collaborative care tailored to your unique goals.
I am a board-certified Psychiatric Nurse Practitioner with a passion for integrative, whole-person care. By blending the principles of integrative psychiatry with a deep understanding of adult medicine, I am committed to treating the mind and body as a unified system. I believe that true wellness requires dedicated attention to both.
Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker | Certified Dementia Practitioner
Boston, MA | In-Person & Telehealth Sessions
I am a Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker (LICSW) and Certified Dementia Practitioner (CDP) with more than two decades of clinical experience helping adults navigate complex emotional, relational, and medical challenges. I hold a Master’s in Clinical Social Work from Boston College and have dedicated my career to providing thoughtful, evidence-based care rooted in authenticity, compassion, and the belief that genuine change is possible at every stage of life.
My areas of specialization include anxiety, depression, trauma, chronic pain, medical conditions, LGBTQ+ identity and relationships, grief and loss, end-of-life issues, and advanced care planning. My integrative approach draws from Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Solution-Focused Therapy, and a Humanistic framework. I believe that movement is medicine, and that healing emerges through the mind–body connection — where awareness, purpose, and action intersect.
As a gay clinician, I am deeply committed to creating an affirming, inclusive space where clients can explore identity, relationships, and resilience with honesty and respect. I strive to help each person cultivate balance, clarity, and a renewed sense of possibility in their lives.
I have worked in the field of psychology for over 25 years and hold two Master’s degrees as well as a PhD in Neuropsychology. I provide psychotherapy for individuals across the lifespan and specialize in the treatment of mood disorders, including anxiety, depression, and post-traumatic stress disorder.
I also work with individuals who are navigating major life stressors such as divorce, career transitions, and other significant changes. In addition, I help clients address concerns related to anger management, chronic stress, and the psychological impact of health issues.
My goal is to support clients in developing effective coping strategies, gaining insight, and making meaningful changes that improve their overall well-being and quality of life.
My path into this work started with film. What drew me was people in their real moments, the hard ones, the ones that matter. In 2004 I volunteered on a suicide hotline, and I didn't want to capture those moments anymore. I wanted to help people find their way through them. That's still what I'm here for.
I'm a Licensed Mental Health Counselor with over two decades of experience across private practice, outpatient care, community mental health, and interdisciplinary teams. I've also held supervisory and leadership roles, mostly with clinicians early in their careers.
I work with adults of all backgrounds, including LGBTQ+ clients, managing anxiety, anger, overthinking, and life transitions. My approach draws on ACT, CBT, and mindfulness based practices, shaped by Taoist philosophy, Zen Buddhism, and existential psychology. I pay close attention, I don't push, and I say what I notice.
Sessions are available via telehealth, Tuesday through Saturday, across Massachusetts.
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.
If you've been feeling overwhelmed, lost, or like you're carrying the weight of your struggles completely alone — you're not. And you don't have to be.
As a psychiatric nurse practitioner serving Massachusetts & Maine via telehealth, I specialize in anxiety, depression, and other mood disorders. But more than treating symptoms, I'm focused on understanding you — the whole person behind them. My approach is holistic and collaborative, which means we work together to figure out what wellness actually looks like for your life, not just on paper.
I’m a board-certified Psychiatric-Mental Health Nurse Practitioner with a background in pharmacy, giving me a well-rounded perspective on mental health care. I work primarily with children, adolescents, and young adults, while also supporting older adults. My practice is rooted in compassion, advocacy, and respect for each person’s unique journey.
