Hi, I'm Carl Teleus, PMHNP-BC, a board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner. I earned my Master of Science in Nursing from Duke University and I am currently completing my Doctor of Nursing Practice (DNP). Before specializing in psychiatry, I spent several years working as both a trauma and travel registered nurse, experiences that strengthened my ability to provide compassionate, patient-centered care in a variety of healthcare settings.

I believe that meaningful mental health care begins with listening. My goal is to create a safe, supportive, and nonjudgmental environment where you feel comfortable sharing your experiences and actively participating in your treatment. I value building strong therapeutic relationships based on trust, respect, and collaboration, and I tailor each treatment plan to meet your unique needs and goals.

I provide evidence-based treatment for anxiety, depression, ADHD, bipolar disorder, trauma-related disorders, obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD), schizophrenia spectrum disorders, insomnia, and other mental health concerns across the lifespan. My approach combines medication management, psychoeducation, and supportive care to help individuals achieve lasting improvements in their mental health and overall quality of life.

Whether you're seeking support for the first time or continuing your mental health journey, I look forward to partnering with you to promote healing, resilience, and overall well-being.
