Hello,
I am Dr. Tameka White, a Board-Certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner and Acute Care Nurse Practitioner with more than a decade of experience caring for adults with complex medical and mental health conditions.
Many of my clients have spent years putting everyone else first before finally seeking help for themselves. Whether you are struggling with anxiety, depression, ADHD, trauma, emotional inheritance, and or caregiver role strain caring for individuals affected by HIV, I strive to provide a space where you feel heard, respected, and never judged.
My background includes critical care and HIV management, allowing me to understand the close relationship between physical health and emotional well-being.
I have a special interest in caring for men's health, professionals, caregivers, and adults from diverse communities, including Black, Caribbean, Asian, and other diaspora communities.
Your mind and body are speaking—are you listening? As a board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner with over a decade of experience in high-stakes intensive care, I understand what many overlook: mental and physical health are inseparable.
In critical care, I saw how stress, trauma, and anxiety manifest in the body—tight chests, sleepless nights, unexplained pain. And when the pandemic hit, I witnessed the silent emotional suffering of patients, families, and healthcare workers alike. That moment changed everything.
I chose psychiatry because healing your mind is just as vital as healing your body. If you’re feeling overwhelmed, exhausted, or like no one sees what you’re carrying—you don’t have to hold it alone. I’m here to help you reconnect, restore, and rise.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Psychiatrist in Farmingdale, NY
Finding psychiatrists in Farmingdale starts with understanding the type of care psychiatrists provide. Psychiatrists, psychiatric nurse practitioners, medical doctors, and doctors of osteopathic medicine can diagnose mental health conditions and prescribe medication. Therapists provide talk therapy and do not prescribe medication. If you are looking for support with anxiety, depression, ADHD, bipolar disorder, OCD, or medication management, either psychiatry, therapy, or both may fit your needs. Review each psychiatrist’s listed specialties, clinical background, and approach to understand whether their experience matches what you want help with.
Farmingdale is a smaller Long Island community, so local psychiatry appointment options may be more limited than in larger nearby areas. Virtual appointments can expand your search across New York while still letting you choose someone who fits your schedule and care preferences. Medication management visits are often shorter and less frequent than therapy sessions, and some psychiatrists also offer therapy. Some people work with both a therapist and a prescriber. Before booking, read each bio for details on appointment availability, whether the psychiatrist is accepting new patients, session structure, and communication style.
Psychiatric care in Farmingdale can be a significant expense without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to lower your session costs and understand what you may pay before care begins. Headway helps you search psychiatrists who are accepting new patients, check whether they take your plan, and see your estimated out-of-pocket cost before you book. You can compare bios, filter by virtual or in-person care, 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.
