Andreia Sabau,DNP, APRN, PMHNP-BC
Hello, I’m Andreia Sabau, a Board Certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner dedicated to providing compassionate, personalized mental health care to individuals across the lifespan—starting from age 5 through adulthood. I’m here to support you through life’s challenges, whether you’re navigating anxiety, depression, trauma, or major life transitions.
Education and Experience
My journey in mental health care is built on a strong educational foundation. I hold a Post Graduate Certificate as a Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner (PMHNP), earned in 2021, and a Doctor of Nursing Practice (DNP) from George Mason University. My academic background also includes:
- Master of Science in Health Policy from Chamberlain College of Nursing (2017)
- Bachelor of Science in Nursing from Marymount University
- Bachelor of Arts in Biology from City University of New York–Brooklyn College
Over the years, I’ve worked extensively in both inpatient and outpatient psychiatric settings, including high-risk labor and delivery units, crisis stabilization services, and forensic psychiatry. This experience has allowed me to develop a well-rounded approach to mental health care.
Areas of Specialization
I’m passionate about tailoring care to meet the unique needs of every individual and family. My specialties include:
- Children and Adolescents: Addressing concerns like anxiety, depression, ADHD, and trauma while supporting families in creating nurturing environments.
- Adults: Helping individuals manage mood disorders, PTSD, and life changes with holistic and evidence-based strategies.
- Perinatal Mental Health: Providing compassionate care to women during pregnancy and postpartum to address mood and anxiety disorders during this important phase of life.
- Trauma-Informed Care: Using safe, evidence-based approaches to help individuals process and recover from trauma, fostering resilience and healing.
Holistic Approach
I believe in treating the whole person, not just the diagnosis. My practice combines psychotropic medication, natural evidence-based supplements, and psychoeducation to create individualized treatment plans. I prioritize empowering my clients to make informed decisions about their mental health.
What to Expect During Appointments
Your time with me is focused on truly understanding your story. I’ll take the time to listen, provide thorough explanations, and ensure you feel comfortable with every step of your care. Whether we’re working together on a treatment plan for ADHD or navigating trauma recovery, my goal is to create a supportive, judgment-free space where you can begin to heal and grow.
