About Me
LaSharon Hernandez (Sharon)
"Hello, I am the owner of Resilient Mind Behavioral Health and a board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner with a master’s degree from Fairfield University. My passion lies in inspiring meaningful change in the lives of my patients. I established Resilient Mind Behavioral Health to provide a space where patients are genuinely seen and heard—not treated as just a number. My mission is to deliver reliable, long-term care while fostering authentic connections that empower individuals to overcome challenges and achieve their mental health and personal goals.
My nursing journey began at Gateway Community College, where I earned my associate degree, followed by a bachelor’s degree from Western Connecticut State University. With over a decade of experience in the nursing profession, I am deeply committed to providing compassionate and transformative care.
Originally from North Carolina, I have called Connecticut home since the age of eight. My own life experiences—navigating transitions, addressing career burnout, and overcoming life’s challenges—have shaped my dedication to helping others. Outside of work, I cherish time with family and friends and find renewal in the beauty of nature. At Resilient Mind Behavioral Health, it is my honor to support patients in discovering their resilience, creating balance, and fostering growth on their journeys to well-being."
Fun Facts
- I’m a nature enthusiast and love exploring scenic trails and peaceful parks in my free time.
- Growing up in Connecticut has made me a fan of New England’s vibrant autumns and cozy winters.
- I’m passionate about lifelong learning and enjoy staying updated on the latest in mental health care.

Long-term Goal
Our long-term goal is to expand the practice as our client base grows. We plan to bring on additional psychiatric providers and therapists to better serve our community. This expansion will allow us to accommodate more patients and offer a wider range of services, including group therapy, individual therapy, and specialized care for children.
I am currently accepting new patients.
