Welcome! I am Dr. Melvina Bissonette, a Board Certified Psychiatrist with over 10 years of experience working with individuals 16 to 65 years of age. I have a focus on reproductive psychiatry and women’s mental health. I treat mental health challenges related to peri/menopause, ante/peri/post-partum, trauma, ADHD, anxiety, depression, bipolar disorder, psychosis, chronic stress related to life, school, work, etc. I aim to offer holistic mental health care, taking into consideration the challenges of your complex professional and personal life.
Depression, anxiety, panic attacks… I’ve been there, I know what it feels like. I know what it feels like to struggle to find the right kind of support that is available, confidential, and holistic. Work with me and know you will be working with a doctor who gets it and will never make you feel alone or unheard.
By using a membership model with a flat monthly fee, there is no need for copays or deductibles. Without billing or using insurance, I can focus solely on providing you truly unrushed, personalized, direct care.
