About

About me
Hi, I'm Mary Ann Starkes, a Board-Certified Advanced Practice Registered Nurse with over three decades of experience in mental health. My journey began with a Bachelor of Science in Nursing from Western Connecticut State University and a Master of Science in Nursing from Yale University, specializing in Adult Psychiatric and Mental Health Nursing.

I have had the privilege of working in various settings, including private practice, the Veterans Administration Hospital, and the CT Healing Center. Each role has deepened my understanding and commitment to providing compassionate mental health care.

I'm licensed in both Connecticut and Washington, and I hold multiple certifications, ensuring the highest standards of care for my patients. My experience ranges from managing chronic psychiatric conditions to participating in cutting-edge research.

At the heart of my practice is a dedication to helping individuals lead healthier, more fulfilling lives. I believe in a personalized approach to treatment, focusing on the unique needs of each patient. I'm here to support you on your journey to mental wellness.
