My name is Marie. I am an advanced practice nurse dedicated to supporting individuals on their journey toward mental and emotional well-being. I hold an MSN from Walden University I have about 5 years of experience working in the mental health field as a nurse.

I am an internist and board-certified psychiatrist with several years of experience working with mentally ill patients and individuals in various phases of substance addiction. My decision to enter the field of psychiatry stemmed from clinical curiosity; while living in New York City, I became fascinated with addiction and wondered why some people develop substance addictions while others do not. After training in internal medicine, I continued specialized residency training in psychiatry at the Columbia University College of Physicians and Surgeons. Following my residency, I pursued further training in addiction and obesity medicine. Additionally, I have a strong academic background in geriatric mental health research.

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 East Meadow
Finding the right psychiatrist in East Meadow starts with knowing what kind of care you need. Psychiatrists and psychiatric mental health nurse practitioners can diagnose mental health conditions, prescribe medication, and manage medication over time. Therapists provide talk therapy, and some people choose therapy, psychiatry, or both. If you are looking for support with anxiety, depression, ADHD, bipolar disorder, OCD, or medication management, review each psychiatrist’s listed specialties, credentials, and approach to care before booking.
East Meadow is a smaller local market, so nearby in-person psychiatry options may be more limited than in larger parts of Long Island or New York City. Virtual appointments can expand your options while still letting you choose a psychiatrist who accepts new patients and fits your schedule. Psychiatry visits, including medication management appointments, are often shorter and less frequent than therapy sessions. Some psychiatrists also offer therapy, and some people work with both a therapist and a prescriber. Reading bios can help you compare appointment style, areas of focus, and whether a free phone consultation is available.
Psychiatric care in East Meadow can be a significant expense without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs and understand what you may pay before your first visit. Headway helps you find psychiatrists who match your preferences, verifies that they are accepting new patients with your plan, and shows your estimated cost before you book. You can browse profiles, compare virtual and in-person options, and book directly when you are 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.
