About Char'Lese Perry, PMHNP-BC

Utilizing basic psychotherapy, I meet clients at their level of need, helping to set and achieve practical goals for treatment. In most cases, I work with your current therapist to provide medication management but also love to utilize more holistic approaches to care. While medication management is my niche, I also love to work with clients who are open to complimentary therapy. I am a doctorate prepared psychiatric mental health nurse practitioner with experience working in forensics, long term care and both inpatient and outpatient mental healthcare. Treatment areas include severe and persistent mental illnesses (SPMIs), anxiety, depression, adjustment disorders and personality disorders. Humans are complex, so beyond medication management, you can expect to learn more about stress management and coping, nutrition, sleep hygiene, trauma, comorbid disorders and family structure/dynamics. I invite you to take the next steps towards your mental wellbeing.

About Dr. Michael Hutchinson, MD

Michael Hutchinson, MD, PhD

Dr. Hutchinson is a board-certified neurologist and senior faculty at the Icahn School of Medicine, Mount Sinai, Manhattan. His clinical interests include headaches, dementia, concussion, traumatic brain injury (TBI), Parkinson's Disease, multiple sclerosis, epilepsy, anxiety, and REM sleep disorders. He has an extensive scientific background and brings a science-based approach to solving clinical problems.

During his residency at the University of Washington, Hutchinson used his knowledge of chaos theory to propose a new way of treating status epilepticus, the most lethal form of epilepsy. The treatment proved successful and is now standard-of-care in the US. Hutchinson later did a sabbatical at Queen Square, London, where Ian McDonald was pioneering the use of beta interferon as the first treatment for multiple sclerosis.

After residency training, Hutchinson underwent a neuroimaging fellowship in Los Angeles.

After arriving at NYU in 1994, Hutchinson pioneered the use of cholinesterase inhibitors as a treatment for the dementia of Parkinson's disease. At the time this was considered forbidden because it might make the patient physically worse, but Hutchinson argued that this premise was ill-conceived. Today, cholineserase inhibitors are standard-of-care in Parkinson's dementia. Hutchinson later developed a new way of treating acute relapses in multiple sclerosis, which puts the patient in charge, and has yielded impressive long-term results.

During his time at NYU, Hutchinson made early contributions to functional MRI, discovering that regional brain activations during cognitive tasks are accompanied by widespread deactivations. In structural imaging, Hutchinson combined physics, neuropathology, and image processing to develop a robust MRI biomarker for Parkinson's disease.

In addition to certification in neurology, Hutchinson is certified in neuroimaging (MRI and CT of the brain and spine), which combines neuroanatomy, neuropathology, and neurophysiology, fields that form the unique base of clinical neurology.

Dr. Hutchinson holds a Ph.D. in molecular physics and is the inventor of spatial sensitivity encoding for MRI - sometimes referred to as parallel MRI - which is now the acknowledged standard for clinical MRI. He is currently exploring a possible extension of this to ultrafast imaging.

My therapeutic approach is client-centered and grounded in evidence-based practices, particularly Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT). Together, we work to identify patterns in thoughts and behaviors while developing practical tools to manage challenges and improve overall well-being.

I specialize in working with individuals experiencing anxiety and stress-related concerns (including social anxiety and panic), depression, self-esteem and identity challenges, relationship difficulties and boundary setting, academic or career stress, and patterns such as overthinking and negative thought cycles.

My goal is to empower clients with the insight and skills needed to navigate challenges and create meaningful, lasting change.

Throughout the therapy process, I focus on building resilience, increasing self-awareness, and supporting personal growth. I believe that everyone has the capacity for change and healing. I am committed to helping clients develop practical strategies and a deeper understanding of themselves so they can move forward with confidence and resilience.
