Mary Cahill

Psychiatric Mental Health NP

Virtual • New York


Hello and welcome to my practice.

My name is Mary Cahill and I am board-certified psychiatric nurse practitioner.

At my practice I offer delivery of excellent psychiatric care using the most up to date evidence based research and clinical guidelines, while also providing you with a respectful, compassionate and non-judgemental space.

I provide comprehensive psychiatric evaluations, consultations and ongoing medication management.

I have expertise in psychopharmacology, which is considered both an art and a science. And, as such, should be grounded in strong science and a deep understanding of psychopharmacology, but also be a considered and highly individualized process.

In 1997, I received my Bachelor of Science in Nursing from the University of San Francisco, graduating summa cum laude.

In 2004, I received a Master of Science in Nursing from Columbia University where I trained as an adult and geriatric nurse practitioner.

In 2022 I received a post-masters certificate as a psychiatric nurse practitioner from NYU Rory Meyers College of Nursing , where I also did a one year internship at Bellevue Hospital focusing on Inpatient Psychiatry.

Happy patient looking away

Find the right psychiatrist for you

Headway makes it easy to find support for your mental health — from finding the right provider, to understanding costs, to scheduling with ease.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Therapist in Buffalo

Finding the right psychiatrist in Buffalo starts with understanding the type of care you want. Psychiatrists and psychiatric mental health nurse practitioners can diagnose mental health conditions, prescribe medication, and provide medication management. Therapists focus on talk therapy and support. Both can be helpful depending on your needs. If you are looking for support with anxiety, depression, ADHD, bipolar disorder, or OCD, review each psychiatrist’s listed specialties, training, and approach to see whether they match what you are looking for.

Buffalo has a steady range of psychiatry options, including local offices in the city and nearby areas like Amherst and Hamburg, plus virtual appointments across New York. Medication management visits are often shorter and less frequent than therapy sessions, so scheduling fit matters. Some psychiatrists also offer therapy, and some people work with both a therapist and a prescriber. Before booking, read psychiatrist bios to understand their communication style, appointment format, availability, and whether they offer a free phone consultation.

Psychiatric care in Buffalo can be a significant expense without insurance. Using in-network coverage is one of the most reliable ways to reduce out-of-pocket costs. Headway helps you find psychiatrists who are accepting new patients, match your preferences, and take your insurance. You can enter your plan details to see estimated costs before booking, then browse profiles and book directly when you’re ready.

If you're already taking psychiatric medication and considering switching providers, talk to your current prescriber before changing or stopping any medication — most psychiatric medications shouldn't be stopped abruptly. Anyone experiencing thoughts of self-harm or in acute crisis should call 988 or go to the nearest emergency department rather than wait for an outpatient appointment.
