Debra Bennett is a board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner with more than 20 years of experience in psychiatry, addiction medicine, and behavioral health. Her clinical background spans psychiatric assessment and medication management, substance use disorders, detoxification and withdrawal management, and co-occurring psychiatric conditions.
In addition to her traditional psychiatric and addiction training, Debra has pursued advanced education in functional and integrative psychiatry, allowing her to incorporate a whole-person perspective that considers the complex relationship between mental health, physical health, nutrition, sleep, stress physiology, hormones, and lifestyle.
Throughout her career, she has worked across inpatient, outpatient, residential, and private-care settings, supporting individuals and families through some of the most complex and vulnerable moments of their lives.
Debra brings particular expertise in working with executives, public figures, and other high-profile individuals and families for whom privacy, discretion, and highly personalized care are essential. She understands that navigating addiction or a mental health crisis can be profoundly difficult, not only for the individual, but for the entire family system. Her approach combines clinical expertise with compassion, empathy, and respect, helping clients feel cared for rather than defined by the circumstances that brought them into treatment.
