Psychiatric Mental Health NP

Virtual • New York


Hello, and welcome! I'm a board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner (PMHNP-BC) dedicated to providing compassionate, evidence-based care for children, adolescents, and adults experiencing a wide range of mental health conditions.

My approach to psychiatric care begins with listening. I believe every person has a unique story, and understanding your experiences, concerns, and goals is the foundation of effective treatment. My priority is to create a safe, supportive, and nonjudgmental environment where you feel heard, respected, and actively involved in your care.

I take a patient-centered, holistic approach, looking beyond symptoms to understand the whole person. Rather than treating diagnoses alone, we will work together to identify what is causing you the most distress and address it one step at a time. I carefully review your psychiatric history, including previous medications, what has or hasn't worked, and any side effects you've experienced, so we can develop a treatment plan that is individualized, practical, and based on the best available evidence.

My treatment philosophy combines medication management with education, supportive therapy, lifestyle recommendations, and collaborative decision-making. I strive to identify the root causes contributing to your symptoms while helping you build lasting coping skills and improve your overall quality of life.

Above all, patient safety, compassion, and collaboration guide every decision I make. My goal is to build a trusting therapeutic relationship where you feel comfortable asking questions, sharing concerns, and participating in decisions about your care. Together, we'll create a personalized treatment plan that supports your mental wellness and helps you achieve meaningful, lasting progress.

Dr. Isaiah Crum

Psychiatrist

Virtual • New York


I’m Isaiah Crum, MD, a board-certified psychiatrist in New York City. I work with Black professionals who are excelling on paper and quietly struggling underneath. People navigating predominantly white spaces, carrying the weight of high achievement, and rarely getting room to not be okay.

I know that experience firsthand. I built this practice because you deserve psychiatric care that understands your life, not just your symptoms.

Dana Denaris

Dana Denaris

Psychiatric Mental Health NP

Virtual • New York


I’m a board-certified Nurse Practitioner with over a decade of experience working in ICU. My background in ICU shaped how I understand the deep connection between physical and mental health, especially how stress, trauma, and anxiety often show up in the body. I transitioned into psychiatry after witnessing firsthand the emotional toll the pandemic had on patients, families, and healthcare workers. It became clear to me that supporting people’s mental health is just as essential as treating physical conditions.

**Important for New Jersey patients seeking STIMULANT treatment:

Due to New Jersey state regulations, patients prescribed stimulant medications are required to attend an in-person visit at least once every three months. These visits are scheduled at my SoHo office in Manhattan.

Please note that there is a $100 facility fee for in-person visits to cover the cost of the clinical space. This fee is separate from insurance and is due at the time of the visit.**
