Getting to know Dr. Alyssa Hamel

I’ve been in the field for more than a decade helping thousands of people over my career. My approach is all about teamwork – working together to create a clear, structured treatment plan that feels right for you. While there’s always a bit of trial and error with medications, I believe in minimizing guesswork by building a thoughtful, results-driven plan from the start. Having taught many nurse practitioners over my career, I’m very experienced in explaining the behind-the-scenes of how the medication works so that you can make an informed decision about which approach to try.

What should a new client know about working with you?

My practice isn’t just about writing prescriptions. I’m passionate about saying I’m here to partner with you and include myself on your team. We’ll stay in close communication, adjusting the plan as needed, so you feel supported and in control of your care before moving into more of a follow-up phase of treatment.

What is your typical process for working with clients?

I take the time to get to know you and your therapeutic goals, so that our decisions are therapeutically aligned with your bigger picture. I’ll explain how different medications work, how brain chemistry plays a role, and how we can optimize your treatment to get the best possible outcome.
