Hello, my name is Michelle Castro. I am a board certified Advanced Nurse Practitioner who specializes in adult mental health, preventive medicine, and weight loss management. I completed both my undergraduate and graduate studies at Rutgers University and currently hold a Master’s degree in Nursing, Bachelor of Science in Nursing, and a Bachelor of Science in Business. I have over ten years of experience as a healthcare provider and have worked at reputable institutions including Hackensack University Medical Center, and New York- Presbyterian Hospital/ Columbia University Medical Center.
As an active member of the American Association of Nurse Practitioners (AANP), I am proud to walk alongside my patients as their advocate. I cultivate successful relationships with my patients by providing customized clinical support, guidance and medication management with the goal of obtaining improved and optimal wellness. My ability to anticipate and respond to the individualized needs of each of the patients I work with while ensuring proper patient care has been the cornerstone of my career.
I look forward to working with you throughout your experience with Blue Skies Psychological Services.
