Michele Litwin, APRN, RN, NP

Adult Psychiatric & Mental Health Nurse Practitioner
CT
I am an adult mental health NP and practice evidence-based treatments with a focus on a holistic approach. Looking at the entire person with regard to their lifestyles, values, and of course, their individual needs. Each patient is assessed based on their individual needs, with a treatment plan tailored to the patient. My approach is collaborative. After reviewing your symptoms, I provide education and medication options, allowing you to make informed decisions about what works best. In therapy, I use cognitive behavioral therapy, mindfulness, and goal-oriented treatments. Being in the mental health field for almost 30 years, my comfort with most diagnoses is apparent; however, my preference is women's trauma, bipolar disorders, depression, and anxiety. When working with patients, empathy becomes the priority. Being able to see things from the patient's point of view is crucial, and meeting the patient where they are at in life. My main goal is to assist the patient in feeling comfortable, validated, and accepted. My journey began after a family member became ill with depression. A psychology professor intrigued me, and I combined my passion for psychology and nursing into this profession. Seeing patients improve with the right treatment drives my work. Meeting the patient where they are is the best way for me to help the patients set goals that are achievable. The first session is the intake. We'll review your mental health, medical, and family history so I can develop the best treatment plan. We'll discuss medication options and therapy needs, then establish how often we'll meet until your symptoms subside and your quality of life improves.
