PMHNP E. Gabrielle Rosengarten is a well respected, remarkably experienced and dedicated, board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner licensed in the states of Oregon, Washington, Massachusetts, New Hampshire and Vermont who provides psychiatric and mental health services to adults and teens. She has a specialisation in Medical Anthropology from Oxford University, United Nations certificates in peace building, conflict transformation and post-war recovery and has worked extensively in different countries, languages and with different cultures. In the past, she’s worked as Director of Advanced Practice Care and Education for the Global Psychiatry Department of the Massachusetts General Hospital, Chief of Psychiatry at Harvard Vanguard Medical Associates and Director of Clinical Operations for the Center of Excellence in Co-Occurring Medicine.
She holds a private practice called MIND HUB (short for Medical Interventions for Neuroplastic Development: Holistically Understanding the Brain) from which she evaluates, diagnoses, and when necessary prescribes medications to help a wide variety of mental health disorders associated to emotional suffering and/or instability, anxiety, psychotic symptoms, substance abuse and/or issues with concentration. Her practice doesn’t only aim to identify and ease what ails patients however, it also focuses on helping them find meaning in their experience, reconnect with and further develop inner strengths and make a plan to better handle life’s curve balls moving forward.
Every individual is genetically, biologically and psychologically unique. In order to best help, she therefore first tries to understand the neurological and psychological connections that make up their unique perspective. She works closely with patients to find what medications will suit them best and are least likely to cause them side effects, adverse reactions or discomforts upon discontinuation. She aims to prescribe the least amount of medication needed to help the issue(s) at hand and will gladly help patients safely come off medications that are no longer needed, wanted or sufficiently helpful. Thanks to the brain’s ability to rewire itself, it’s only natural that its need for medication may change during the course of treatment, which is why re-evaluating this need regularly is one of her top priorities.
She operates from a holistic point of view, keeping in mind that lifestyle, environment and our perceptions are key players in determining our biology and emotional wellness. Everyone has a unique perception of the world and of themselves, as well as their own values, beliefs, experiences and concepts of what would lead them to a happier life. She incorporates a certain amount of psychotherapy in the care she provides to catalyze healing and strongly believes in her patients being full partners in their treatment and well informed as to the processes that underlie their discomforts and options for betterment.
