Joseph Herskovic, PMHNP's style

Why Joseph Herskovic, PMHNP chose to be in the helping profession

I chose to be in the helping profession because I genuinely enjoy making a difference in people’s lives. There is something incredibly rewarding about being there for others during their most vulnerable moments, offering support, and helping them navigate their challenges. Seeing patients improve, regain confidence, and find hope reaffirms my passion for this work and reminds me why I chose this path.

I believe that everyone deserves compassionate, high-quality care, and I take great pride in being able to provide that. Helping others is more than just a job—it’s a calling that brings me deep fulfillment and a true sense of purpose. Knowing that I can be a source of comfort, guidance, and encouragement for those in need makes this work meaningful and motivates me to continue giving my best every day.

Joseph Herskovic, PMHNP's approach

My approach is holistic, patient-centered, and evidence-based. I believe in meeting each individual where they are, taking the time to understand their unique challenges, and working collaboratively to create realistic, sustainable goals. In therapy, I emphasize building self-awareness, resilience, and practical coping strategies to help patients navigate life’s difficulties with confidence.

When it comes to nutrition counseling, I take a comprehensive approach—considering not just dietary needs, but also lifestyle factors, mental health, and cultural or religious influences to ensure a plan that is both personalized and practical. By integrating these elements, I strive to provide well-rounded support that acknowledges the whole person, not just isolated concerns. Ultimately, my goal is to empower individuals with the knowledge, skills, and confidence to take charge of their well-being in a way that feels both manageable and meaningful.

Joseph Herskovic, PMHNP's experience working with the Jewish community

In my experience working within the Jewish community, I’ve developed a deep understanding of the unique cultural, religious, and familial dynamics that can significantly influence mental health and overall well-being. As a Jewish PMHNP who grew up with religious traditions, I have a unique perspective that allows me to offer care that is both clinically effective and culturally sensitive. I understand the challenges many face in balancing mental health needs with religious obligations, community expectations, and personal struggles.

My approach respects Jewish values while ensuring that patients feel heard, understood, and supported in ways that align with their beliefs and practices. It’s deeply meaningful to me to be able to help individuals within my own community navigate mental health with compassion, understanding, and professional expertise. By integrating both clinical knowledge and cultural awareness, I strive to provide a level of care that honors each person’s experience and helps them thrive.
