Susan Fratoni, MSN, APRN, PMHNP-BC

Owner & Psychiatric Nurse Practitioner

Susan (“Sue”) Fratoni is the founder and owner of The Right Mind Psychiatric Services and a Board-Certified Psychiatric Nurse Practitioner with more than 25 years of experience in mental health care. Her background includes working with both adolescents and adults across a wide range of psychiatric settings, including psychopharmacology research, outpatient psychiatry, inpatient psychiatry at the state hospital level, substance use treatment, eating disorder care, psychiatric home care, and outpatient medication management.

Sue understands that seeking mental health treatment can feel overwhelming, especially when symptoms are affecting relationships, work, school, or daily life. Her goal is to create a welcoming, judgment-free environment where clients feel heard, respected, and actively involved in their care.

She believes the best outcomes come from a collaborative approach. Rather than focusing only on symptoms or diagnoses, Sue works closely with each client to understand their goals, challenges, treatment history, and preferences. Together, they develop an individualized plan designed to support long-term wellness and improve quality of life.

Her philosophy toward medication management is that treatment should feel right for the individual. Medication is only effective if you feel comfortable taking it and believe it is helping you. Sue strives to use the least amount of medication necessary to achieve the best possible outcome. She believes that “less is often best” and focuses on creating treatment plans that are effective, practical, and sustainable while minimizing unnecessary medications and side effects whenever possible.

Whether someone is starting treatment for the first time or looking for a fresh perspective on an existing medication regimen, Sue is committed to helping clients find balance, regain hope, and move toward lasting improvement.

“My goal is simple: to help you feel like yourself again and get back to your right mind.”
