See what our patients are saying about Sharlene Famisan

Sharlene has been my mental health nurse practitioner since Sept. 2021. She is nice and easy to talk to. Last year, I started having a mental health crisis due to a life event. She took very good care of me and made sure all my needs were addressed. Her compassionate approach and professional expertise made me feel genuinely supported and understood. I am still receiving ongoing treatment, but things are starting to calm down. Sharlene is not a therapist, she manages medications. I highly recommend her if you are needing help and support for your mental health. Thank you Sharlene and Lifestance. Eloisa

"I have been seeing Sharlene Famisan for some time, and the care I’ve received has been exceptional. She is incredibly knowledgeable and takes the time to explain treatment options in a way that is easy to understand. I never feel rushed during our appointments, and I truly feel like a partner in my own mental health journey. Since working with her, I have seen a significant improvement in my daily life. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a compassionate and professional Psychiatric NP."
