Peter R. Bourque Jr.
MSN, APRN, PMHNP-BC
Founder & Clinical Director | Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner (New York)
I’m Peter R. Bourque Jr., a Board-Certified Psychiatric-Mental Health Nurse Practitioner (PMHNP-BC) licensed in New York State and the Founder and Clinical Director of our practice. I built this practice alongside my wife, Jocelyn R. Bourque, with the shared goal of providing accessible, compassionate, and high-quality psychiatric care through secure, HIPAA-compliant telehealth services across New York State.
I have over 13 years of experience providing psychiatric evaluation and medication management for adults and young adults. My clinical approach is evidence-based, outcomes-focused, and individualized, with careful attention to diagnostic accuracy, treatment response, and patient safety. Care is delivered through a secure virtual platform, allowing patients throughout New York to access consistent, confidential psychiatric treatment without geographic barriers.
My clinical style is approachable, collaborative, and patient-centered. I prioritize creating a supportive environment where individuals feel heard, respected, and actively involved in their care. I take time to understand each person’s symptoms, history, and treatment goals, and I believe effective psychiatric care is built on trust, clear communication, and shared decision-making.
I commonly treat anxiety disorders, depression, ADHD, bipolar disorder, obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD), post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), trauma-related conditions, stress-related disorders, and substance use concerns. Treatment plans are tailored to each individual and may include psychiatric medication management, education, and coordination with therapists or other healthcare providers when clinically appropriate.
As Founder and Clinical Director, I oversee clinical operations and maintain responsibility for diagnostic decision-making, treatment planning, and medication management. I also provide direct clinical supervision to advanced practice trainees and collaborate closely with clinical and administrative teams to ensure services meet New York State regulations, CMS standards, and commercial payer requirements.
In addition to clinical practice, I provide expert witness consulting and psychiatric case review for mental health-related legal matters, offering objective, ethically grounded clinical opinions within my scope of practice.
I remain deeply committed to expanding access to trusted psychiatric care in New York and supporting individuals as they work toward improved stability, confidence, and long-term mental well-being.
