Bipolar disorder therapists & psychiatrists in Wellesley, MA

Miriam Fernandes, MSN, PMHNP-BC

I am a board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner providing compassionate, evidence-based care to adults. I specialize in treating anxiety, depression, mood disorders, trauma-related conditions, and burnout. My professional background includes experience in both high-acuity and outpatient psychiatric settings, where I have worked with individuals facing complex emotional and behavioral health challenges.

I strive to create a safe, respectful space where clients feel heard and empowered. My goal is to partner with you in developing a treatment plan that supports long-term wellness and meaningful change.

Hello and welcome!

I'm a board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner with experience in outpatient psychiatry and community mental health. I enjoy working with adults experiencing anxiety, depression, ADHD, and other mental health conditions. I have a special interest in women's mental health, including pregnancy, postpartum, and menopause. My goal is to provide compassionate, evidence-based care in a welcoming and supportive environment where you feel heard, respected, and empowered to take an active role in your mental health journey.

Mental healthcare has been a lifelong passion of mine, and I am committed to helping others. My therapeutic style builds on my compassionate, empathetic, and attentive nature. In the past, I have worked well with clients with anxiety, complex trauma, PTSD, narcissistic abuse, personality and/or mood disorders. I genuinely care about the people who entrust me within my therapy practice and consider being a therapist one of the greatest privileges of my life.

*Former clients are welcome to reach out if they want to resume therapy, even if I do not have scheduled openings on Headway.

I am a Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker (LICSW) with years of experience working with a variety of clients, including both children and adults. I have experience supporting individuals with depression, anxiety, suicidal ideation, functional neurological disorder, dissociative identity disorder, bipolar disorder, psychosis, personality disorders, trauma, and more.

Hi, I’m Taylor—I’m a therapist who believes therapy should feel like a place where you can breathe and be yourself. Clients often tell me they open up with me about things they’ve never shared before. I’m warm, friendly, a good listener, and always real. If you’ve ever felt like you had to hold everything in or pretend you’re “fine,” this is a space where you don’t have to do that.

I primarily work with adults (18+), and I specialize in Depression, Anxiety, OCD, Trauma, PTSD, Mood Disorders, ADD/ADHD, Bipolar Disorder, and Personality Disorders. I also support people who are navigating identity, self-discovery, emotional overwhelm, and rebuilding life after difficult or painful chapters.

Are you tired of carrying the weight of everything on your own? Ready to stop feeling stuck and start creating meaningful change? I help adults navigate anxiety, depression, trauma, grief, relationship and intimacy concerns, family challenges, OCD, health-related stress, sexual identity exploration, seasonal affective disorder, work stress, and major life transitions. You deserve a space where you feel genuinely heard, understood, and supported. Together, we'll uncover what's keeping you stuck, explore new perspectives, and develop practical strategies that help you move forward with greater confidence and clarity.
