Anna Naeva
(She/Her/Hers)
Psychiatric Nurse Practitioner
Supporting people of color and LGBTQ+ individuals with anxiety, depression, bipolar disorder, and other mood disorders; fluent in Haitian Creole.
As a board-certified psychiatric nurse practitioner, I specialize in supporting individuals managing mental health conditions, particularly bipolar disorder. My expertise lies in helping older adults and people of color—populations often underrepresented in mental healthcare—gain a deeper understanding of their condition and develop sustainable strategies for lasting well-being. I offer services in Haitian Creole and strive to create a safe, welcoming space where you'll feel genuinely heard and understood. In our work together, we’ll focus on symptom management while also exploring your purpose and passions, key aspects of a fulfilling life. Using evidence-based treatments like motivational interviewing, positive psychology, and CBT, I’ll help you build confidence and resilience. My conversational, client-centered approach ensures sessions feel natural and engaging, fostering a strong therapeutic relationship. With years of experience and a commitment to compassionate care, I guide clients toward meaningful progress, blending practical tools with personal connection for transformative mental health care.
