One Provider for Therapy and Medication — No More Bouncing Between Offices, Bloomfield

If you've ever tried to get mental health care from two different providers, you know how fragmented it can feel. Your therapist says one thing. Your prescriber hasn't read those notes yet. You spend half your appointments re-explaining your history. And somehow, the two people who are supposed to be helping you don't quite have the same picture. There's a better way. Sindhia Shyras, APRN at Elite Health LLC is a board-certified Psychiatric Nurse Practitioner who handles both supportive therapy and medication management — in the same relationship, with the same provider who already knows you. For Bloomfield residents, that means care that's actually connected.

Therapy and Medication Management in Bloomfield, CT

Why Integrated Care Works Better

When the same person manages your medication and provides your therapy, adjustments happen faster. If you've been sleeping terribly and it's affecting your mood, Sindhia can look at both the medication side and what's going on in your life at the same time. There's no delay waiting for a note to transfer. No inconsistency in approach. And no starting over with someone new when you need a change. It's just one relationship, building over time — which is actually how good psychiatric care is supposed to work.

What Supportive Therapy Looks Like Here

It's a real conversation. Not a structured program or a homework assignment. Supportive therapy follows where you are — what's hard right now, what you're trying to figure out, what keeps coming up. Sindhia listens deeply and asks the kinds of questions that help things become clearer. And because she's also your prescriber, if something shifts — if your anxiety spikes or your sleep starts falling apart — she can address it in the same appointment. No separate scheduling, no additional copay for a second provider.

Bloomfield, CT — Serving a Community That Deserves Better Access

Bloomfield is a diverse, working community just north of Hartford — and mental health access there hasn't always been easy. Telehealth changes that. Sindhia sees patients across all of Connecticut via secure video, which means you don't need to take half a day off to get to an appointment. For those who want face-to-face, the New Britain office at 1 Liberty Sq, Suite 301 is under 20 minutes away. She accepts Aetna, Cigna, Husky Health, Medicaid, United Healthcare, Anthem, ConnectiCare, and self-pay. And she's fluent in English, Malayalam, Tamil, and Telugu.

Frequently Asked Questions

Yes, absolutely. Not everyone wants or needs to switch their therapy setup — and if you have a therapist you trust, that relationship has real value. Sindhia is happy to handle the medication management side and collaborate with your existing therapist as needed. She can also provide supportive therapy alongside that if it makes sense for your care. The goal is for your mental health team to work together, not create competition between them.

No — and that's part of what makes this approach different. Your first appointment is an evaluation, not a prescription pad. Sindhia asks about your history, what you're currently experiencing, and what's already been tried. From there, she gives you her honest recommendation and explains her thinking. Some people start with therapy only. Some start with medication. Some do both from day one. It's a conversation, not a checklist.

That's a perfectly reasonable goal — and one Sindhia will support thoughtfully. Tapering off medication isn't something that should happen abruptly or without a plan, but many patients do reach a point where they feel stable enough to try reducing or stopping. Because she's managing both sides of your care, she can do that carefully, with supportive therapy already in place as a safety net. You're not navigating that transition alone or with two providers who don't agree.
