More about Sharon Drakos, NP, APRN

Sharon Drakos is a Yale trained Psychiatric Clinical Specialist with over 30 years experience practicing psychotherapy and medication management. She draws from a number of theoretical frameworks including psychodynamic, which views the client’s personal and family history as having historical connections to his/her presenting problems which leads to greater understanding of the current problem. She also uses the holistic model of the person as a biophysicalsocialspiritual being. All of these aspects of the self are studied and analyzed to bring clarity to issues the person is currently struggling with. She also brings a foundation of cognitive behavioral theory and the principles of solution-focused brief treatment to her work. If Sharon and her patients determine that medication is indicated and appropriate, her approach is scientific and evidence-based. Sharon strives to provide compassionate, unhurried care tailored to the unique needs of the individual.

Excellent.
Very helpful.
I always enjoy my visit. By the end I am able to process some things that have bothered me over the past month, and work on some things for my next visits.
It is very good to discuss family situations with a professional who is objective and helps you see things in a new light. It helps release some of the stress of the situation.
