Getting to know Stephanie Nazaire

Dual Board-Certified Family & Psychiatric Nurse Practitioner With over 10 years of experience, I specialize in delivering holistic, patient-centered care that addresses both physical and mental health. As a dual board-certified Family and Psychiatric Nurse Practitioner, I’m passionate about bridging the gap between mind and body to support my patients in achieving lasting wellness. My approach is warm, compassionate, and deeply rooted in education and empowerment. I believe in creating a safe, nonjudgmental space where individuals feel heard, supported, and equipped with the tools they need to thrive. Whether managing anxiety, PTSD, depression, ADHD , or other mental health concerns, my goal is to walk alongside my patients with empathy, clarity, and evidence-based care.

What should a new client know about working with you?

My goal is to create a supportive, nonjudgmental space where you feel comfortable discussing your concerns openly. I believe therapy should be collaborative—we work together to understand what's contributing to your symptoms, identify patterns that may be keeping you stuck, and develop practical strategies to help you move forward. My approach is individualized and draws from evidence-based therapies, including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), supportive therapy, motivational interviewing, and solution-focused techniques. I focus on helping clients build healthy coping skills, improve emotional regulation, manage anxiety and depression, navigate ADHD and life transitions, strengthen relationships, and increase overall resilience. I encourage active participation between sessions by practicing the skills we discuss, as meaningful change often comes from small, consistent steps. Whether you're seeking medication management, psychotherapy, or both, my goal is to help you feel heard, supported, and empowered while working toward your personal goals.

5 Stars – Compassionate, Knowledgeable, and Truly Supportive I can honestly say this has been one of the most positive experiences I’ve had in mental health care. From the very first appointment, she made me feel heard, respected, and understood. They take the time to really listen without judgment and offer thoughtful, evidence-based treatment options that are tailored to my specific needs. She explain things clearly, answer all my questions, and make me feel like a true partner in my care. Whether we're discussing medication, therapy, or lifestyle changes, I always leave sessions feeling more informed and empowered. I’ve noticed significant improvement in my mental health, including better focus, mood stability, and overall wellbeing. I’m grateful to have found a provider who not only treats the symptoms but truly cares about me as a person. Highly recommend to anyone seeking psychiatric care.
My provider is compassionate, attentive, and truly listens. They’ve made a huge difference in my mental health journey—I highly recommend them!”
Stephanie is an amazing NP and was incredible throughout my weight loss journey. She took the time to understand my health, needs, concerns and created a personalized plan that actually worked. I’ve lost 42 pounds with her weight loss program and felt supported every step of the way. She is professional, and focused on long term wellness and not just quick results. Highly recommend for anyone serious about getting healthier.
Stephanie is great at what she do. Very respectful and answered all my questions. It's been about 2 months since I've started taking my weight loss injection and I've lost over 20 lbs. While on this injection you should always change the way you eat and do minimal exercise to help speed the process of your weight loss journey.
My experience was better than I expected ! ! My provider Stephanie was wonderful and made me have some hope again after being down for awhile . Great listener , great personality , professional , very compassionate, overall just wonderful experience.

Stephanie is fantastic. She helped me navigate a very dark time in my life, and I’ve continued to enjoy seeing her regularly ever since. She has a warm demeanor and provides thoughtful insights into the wide variety of experiences I’ve shared with her. I’m so grateful to have found her and highly recommend her.
Stephanie has made such a huge impact on my life in a relatively short amount of time. I found her during a time when my mental health issues could no longer be pushed off and I needed to be seen immediately. My ADHD alongside PMDD put me into a headspace that was likely not easy to take on but Stephanie did it happily and never made me feel like my issues were trivial or common but also didn't make me feel as though what I was experiencing was unheard of. She takes the decision to medicate seriously - not withholding medications but also not looking to them as a permanent solution. I look forward to our appts every month. Outside of Stephanie's prompt wait times, the team at Orenda has been great. I'm able to communicate via text and when I feel a phone call is needed, I'm never on hold for too long. I highly recommend Dr. Stephanie Nazaire and the team at Orenda to anyone looking for holistic mental health care -- especially those with ADHD.
She was incredibly nice and patient. As she asked me questions about myself, she made it clear why she asked and what she was looking for. She was a great listener and seemed very caring. I’m excited to continue my care with her. If you’re feeling uneasy about seeking help, she may be the perfect fit for you!
Horrible experience, this organization only exists to push adhd medication that they don’t even understand. I wanted thoughtful answers to very easy questions and was met with disdain. During our zoom call, only the top of Stephanie’s head was visible, she was clearly looking elsewhere the whole time, and when I asked her the difference between two medications, she googled the question and read aloud the first infographic she found on Google images.
