Getting to know Denise Mcclellan
*After booking, you will receive a link via IntakeQ so you can complete required intake forms prior to your appointment.*
I am a board-certified psychiatric nurse practitioner with specialized experience in treating anxiety, depression, sleep disorders, PTSD, and adjustment challenges. I earned my Master's in Family Psychiatric Mental Health Nursing from Rutgers, The State University of New Jersey, and hold a Bachelor's degree from the University of Medicine & Dentistry. Additionally, I completed an EdM in Counseling Psychology at Rutgers University. My passion lies in supporting veterans, first responders, and individuals facing significant life transitions. Having worked extensively with the US Army, I understand the unique mental health challenges that active-duty military personnel and veterans encounter. I have also provided clinical care in a variety of settings, including Columbia University, where I combined research with hands-on treatment. Throughout my career, I have been dedicated to treating a wide range of conditions, including grief and loss, relationship issues, and personal transformation. My goal is to offer compassionate, comprehensive care that addresses both the emotional and physical aspects of mental health.
What should a new client know about working with you?
When we work together, my primary focus is to provide a supportive, non-judgmental space where you feel heard and understood. I take a holistic approach to care, which means I don’t just focus on symptoms but look at the full picture of your life—your experiences, challenges, and goals. Whether you are grappling with anxiety, depression, or navigating a major life change, I’m here to help guide you through it. My experience with veterans and first responders gives me a deep appreciation for the complexities of trauma, and I am committed to helping individuals heal in a way that is tailored to their unique needs. I believe in fostering a collaborative relationship, where we work together to develop a treatment plan that feels right for you.
What is your typical process for working with clients?
Our first session will be a comprehensive evaluation, where I’ll take the time to get to know you—your history, current challenges, and what you hope to achieve through treatment. Together, we will identify your strengths and work through any obstacles that may be holding you back. My approach blends evidence-based practices with personalized care, and depending on your needs, treatment may include medication management, therapy, or lifestyle changes to improve your overall well-being. I am a firm believer in the importance of accessible care, which is why I offer telepsychiatry services for convenience and flexibility. Each session is designed to help you feel empowered and supported on your journey toward better mental health.
