About Michael
Michael Carraturo is a psychiatric nurse practitioner who sees patients 10 and older at the Boynton Beach office, Suite B710. He trained at Chamberlain University and Keiser University and spent more than a decade as an emergency room nurse before specializing in psychiatry. Watching patients in psychiatric crisis wait hours or days for care, with no outpatient provider to follow up, convinced him that accessible psychiatric care was the problem he wanted to solve.
Carraturo treats anxiety, depression, and trauma-related conditions, and he has a particular interest in life transitions: a move, a divorce, a new diagnosis, the start of college, or retirement, any of which can tip a manageable situation into a clinical one. He is comfortable with adolescents as well as adults, and he is used to the emergency-room reality that symptoms rarely arrive in tidy categories.
His approach is evidence-based and focused on resilience. He wants patients to leave treatment not only with fewer symptoms but with better tools for the next hard season. Boynton Beach is a Spravato site, and he can coordinate esketamine evaluation for adults with treatment-resistant depression.
