Hi, Iā€™m Christta!

I am the owner, founder and provider here at Destination Psychiatry. I am a Board Certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner with over 14 years of experience in nursing, 12 of which were in Psychiatry. My professional experience includes both inpatient and outpatient general, forensic and addiction psychiatry with adults and additional experience working with children and adolescents and providing therapy. Over these many years, I have worked with highly skilled psychiatric providers and clinicians in a variety of settings to build upon my robust knowledge of mental health conditions, evaluations and treatment approaches.

My hobbies and interests include enhancing my own holistic wellbeing through activities such as nature walks, Pilates, journaling, meditation, gardening, trying new recipes and traveling to different destinations. To ensure that I show up as my best self for my clients, I also receive my own therapy, as I believe that this is an essential component of all wellness journeys.

My goal is to provide Connecticut residents with the quality mental health services they deserve!
