Sumi Dolben, Nurse Practitioner
Sumi Dolben helps adults and older adults in Massachusetts find stability, clarity, and relief from mental health symptoms through thoughtful, evidence-based medication management. Practicing with LifeStance Health, she partners with patients across MA to develop individualized treatment plans that support daily functioning, emotional balance, and long-term well-being. Her clinical work centers on the evaluation and treatment of ADHD, anxiety disorders, and depression, while also addressing related concerns such as mood changes, sleep difficulties, and life stressors. Sumi takes a careful, collaborative approach to prescribing, ensuring medications are selected and adjusted with attention to each patient’s goals, medical history, and overall health. She also has experience supporting individuals navigating complex conditions and offers additional areas of focus beyond her core specialties. Sumi is especially committed to caring for adults facing high-stress roles and major life transitions. She works with populations including first responders and military veterans, recognizing the unique mental health challenges that can accompany service, trauma exposure, and reintegration into civilian life. Her approach emphasizes respect, discretion, and steady support, particularly for patients managing long-standing symptoms or later-life transitions. As a prescriber, Sumi provides medication management for adults and seniors, integrating clinical expertise with compassionate listening. She has been practicing since 2011 and values continuity of care, patient education, and shared decision-making as key elements of effective treatment. Outside of clinical practice, Sumi enjoys playing the piano, cooking, and traveling, interests that reflect her appreciation for creativity, balance, and lifelong learning.
