Meet Rachel Ward, MSN PMHNP-BC  

I work with patients across the lifespan, presenting with an array of conditions such as Depression, OCD, PTSD, Anxiety, ADHD, Autism Spectrum Disorder, Bipolar Disorder, among others. Equipped with specialized training in Trauma Based Care facilitated by the Boston Trauma foundation, I am committed to fostering collaborative partnerships with my patients. My overarching goal is to assist you in adapting your lifestyle to facilitate your journey towards self-actualization, complemented by judicious medication management to alleviate hurdles along the way. My ethos revolves around a collaborative approach, where patient empowerment and mutual engagement form the cornerstone of our therapeutic alliance.
