Integrative psychiatric care for when life no longer feels familiar
Instead of just medicating the exhaustion of a destabilizing life transition, shifting ADHD symptoms, or the upheaval of midlife, I help you safely navigate the profound shifts happening in your mind and body through integrative psychiatry. This may include medication, safe deprescribing, evidence-informed supplements, nutritional guidance, lifestyle adjustments, and attention to the connection between physical and emotional well-being.
I believe that you are already equipped to heal. I use medication when clinically appropriate because it can be an effective, compassionate way to turn down the volume of distress. But a prescription is one supportive part of healing, not the entire answer. True healing requires a collaborative partnership where your autonomy is honored, your voice guides your care, and you are supported as a whole person.

Destabilizing life situations can make the coping skills that once worked feel ineffective. It can become difficult to find stability, regain a sense of yourself, and know how to move forward. With the right support, it is possible to find your footing again.

Welcome, I’m Lisa Heredia, APRN, PMHNP-BC
I’m a Psychiatric-Mental Health Nurse Practitioner whose perspective has been shaped by both personal experience and years of caring for patients and families through acute medical crises.
I saw how efficiently healthcare can manage the logistics of change while the person living through it is often left alone with the emotional aftermath: anxiety, uncertainty, grief, and a reality that suddenly feels unfamiliar.
That gap shaped the practice I wanted to create: integrative, compassionate psychiatric care that makes room for both the clinical and human sides of what you are going through.
Do you...
- feel capable, but unmoored?
- believe you are resilient, but right now, the ground has shifted beneath you?
- recognize that you cannot navigate this specific “in-between” chapter alone?
- find yourself in the “Who Am I Now?” crisis: “If I am no longer a full-time caregiver, a spouse, or perfectly healthy, who exactly am I? I don’t recognize the person in the mirror.”
- carry the "Invisible Struggle": “People look at me and think I’m fine, but they don’t see the toll this transition is taking on my mind. I am exhausted from pretending to have it all together.
- fear a diminished future: "Is this it?" Am I just going to feel this burnt out, brain-fogged, and limited forever? I’m operating at 50% capacity, and I’m terrified everyone is noticing.
- wonder why everyone else seems to be handling adulthood, career shifts, or grief so smoothly while you feel completely overwhelmed?
If any of this sounds familiar, you’re in the right place. We can start with what is happening now and build care around your symptoms, your values, and the life you are trying to build.
