Danielle Mainardi, PMHNP--BC

My practice specializes in the diagnosis of OCD and the management of OCD with evidence-based medication treatment across the lifespan. A significant portion of my caseload includes individuals with OCD and related anxiety disorders, often alongside co-occurring depression, ADHD, panic disorder, insomnia, and mood disorders. I provide comprehensive psychiatric evaluations, individualized medication management, incorporate ERP- and CBT-informed strategies into treatment, and collaborate closely with ERP therapists and other members of the treatment team.

I specialize in OCD and anxiety across the lifespan, with expertise in treating co-occurring depression, ADHD, panic disorder, insomnia, and mood disorders. I provide personalized treatment plans that include medication when appropriate, while incorporating practical ERP- and CBT-informed strategies into my sessions. I also collaborate closely with therapists to support lasting progress.

I am a board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner (PMHNP-BC) with experience diagnosing and managing OCD, as well as treating individuals with co-occurring anxiety disorders across inpatient and outpatient settings. My training includes graduate education in psychiatric diagnosis and psychopharmacology, with ongoing continuing education focused on OCD, anxiety disorders, Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP), and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT).

Throughout my Bachelor of Science in Nursing (BSN) and Master of Science in Nursing (MSN) education, I received formal training in cultural competency, health equity, and providing culturally responsive psychiatric care. My clinical training and practice have included working with individuals from diverse cultural, racial, ethnic, religious, gender, and socioeconomic backgrounds. I strive to provide an inclusive, respectful, and nonjudgmental environment where treatment is individualized to each person’s unique experiences, values, and goals.
