Bipolar disorder therapists & psychiatrists in Springfield, MA

I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor, educator, and artist. I am skilled and experienced in supporting people working on issues of self-esteem/worth, traditional and non-traditional relationship issues, sexual wellness, body-positivity, grief, depression, anxiety, trauma, recovery, life transitions, family issues, and more.

The work we do will be directed by the Person-Centered, Rogerian principles of unconditional positive regard, empathy, and belief in authentic human connection.

I have been working with teens and young adults for over 20yrs, mostly in group homes. I specifically work with people who have experienced trauma and lived in foster care. I think it is important for you to have choice and control of your life, and that many systems and therapy have often not been helpful. I want to try something different.

"Empowering you toward lasting growth through empathy and action.

I strive to create a supportive environment where individuals feel safe processing life’s hurdles. Whether you are navigating stress, crisis, or multicultural concerns, I provide a safe space to develop coping skills and find your footing.

• Experience: 10 years in clinical practice.
• Specialties: Anxiety, trauma, substance use, and life transitions.
• Languages: Fully bilingual in Spanish and English.

I deeply value diversity and operate from a foundation of inclusion and compassion. My mission is to help you feel seen, heard, and equipped to reach your goals."

My journey started with volunteering in the Guidance Counselor's office at my high school. In this setting, my emotional intelligence and level of empathy began to grow. I decided to study Psychology to understand how the mind works, then studied Social Work to understand how that mind works when affected by events in the environment. I have worked extensively with children/ students, the LGBTQIA+ community, people living with HIV/ AIDS, the elderly, Veterans, Immigrants, couples and families. I accept clients no matter their race, gender, ethnicity or background. I utilize a strength- based approach for my clients as I believe we all have the ability to take control of our own lives.

Dr. Muriana B. Jeanniton, DNP, PMHNP‐BC, is a psychiatric clinician, military officer, and founder of BMPMHS, LLC. She brings a calm, steady presence to every session — the kind that helps people breathe again.

Born in Port‐au‐Prince and raised in Boston, Dr. Jeanniton built her life from resilience, overcoming early hardship and homelessness to become a leader in mental health, forensic nursing, and crisis stabilization.

With 12 years of experience as a psychiatric provider and nearly 20 years in healthcare overall, she blends clinical precision with genuine human connection. Her background spans medical‐surgical nursing, emergency care, inpatient psychiatry, outpatient treatment, and crisis stabilization. Patients describe her as warm, direct, and grounding — someone who listens with intention and treats with clarity.

In addition to her civilian practice, Dr. Jeanniton serves as a Lieutenant Colonel in the U.S. Army Reserve, supporting humanitarian missions, crisis deployments, and large‐scale public health operations. Her dual background in military leadership and psychiatric care shapes her ability to remain steady, thoughtful, and effective in high‐pressure environments.

She believes healing begins with being truly understood. Her work reflects purpose, service, and the belief that every person deserves dignity, stability, and a space where they can finally exhale.
