Reaching out for support is one of the bravest things you can do — and I'm honored to be part of your journey. I work with individuals living with anxiety, chronic illness and pain, and substance use and addiction. I believe every person carries their own resilience, and my role is to help you access it. My practice is built on trust, warmth, and a deep commitment to your growth. I show up for my clients with honesty and the genuine conviction that meaningful change is always within reach
As a Board-Certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner, I partner with children, teens, and families to provide comprehensive, compassionate mental health care. My practice specializes in the evaluation, diagnosis, and treatment of ADHD, anxiety, Oppositional Defiant Disorder (ODD), depression, and OCD. I believe in looking at the whole child, blending evidence-based medical management with therapeutic support to help your child thrive at home, in school, and in life.
What uniquely informs my psychiatric practice is my foundational background in pediatric neurology. This specialized experience allows me to deeply understand the complex intersection between brain development, neurological functioning, and behavioral health. When treating conditions like ADHD or OCD, I look beyond surface-level symptoms to understand the underlying neurological drivers, allowing me to create highly precise, targeted treatment plans that standard approaches might miss.
I am a Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner serving clients in Texas, Maryland & New York. I work with diverse kinds of clients (Age 18 +) with different cultural backgrounds and mental health problems. I specialize in depression, anxiety, ADHD, PTSD, Insomnia, bipolar disorder, eating disorder, personality disorder and much more. I am a compassionate provider with a passion for patients with mental illness.
Anxiety and depression can make everyday life feel exhausting — and finding the right support shouldn't add to that. I'm a Psychiatric Nurse Practitioner practicing via telehealth across New York State, and I genuinely love what I do. My style is collaborative: I'm not here to hand you a prescription and send you on your way. I want to understand your full picture — your history, your goals, what you've tried before — and build a plan that actually fits your life. Care works best when it feels like a partnership, and that's exactly what I aim for. There's no one-size-fits-all when it comes to mental health, and I'll never treat it that way. If you're ready to take the next step — or even just curious about what that might look like — I'd love to connect.
As a psychiatric mental health nurse practitioner (PMHNP), I provide evidence-based medication management to clients seeking care. Since becoming a PMHNP, I have worked in different settings such as community health and women’s health. I have a true passion for working with the LGBTQAI and BIPOC communities. I focus on empowering clients within these communities to help them understand possible treatments for their mental health concerns and provide a therapeutic approach to care.
Hi, I’m Arelys! I’m a board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner (PMHNP-BC) with over 15 years of nursing experience. Throughout my career, I’ve had the privilege of caring for people from all walks of life, across different ages, cultures, backgrounds, and circumstances. Those experiences have shaped the way I approach mental health care: with curiosity, compassion, and an understanding that there is always more to a person than what brings them into the room.
I work with adolescents, college students, and adults experiencing anxiety, depression, ADHD, mood disorders, and the challenges and transitions that life can bring.
I chose to specialize in mental health because I believe meaningful care begins with truly getting to know the person in front of me. Your symptoms matter, but so do the experiences, relationships, stressors, strengths, and circumstances that shape them. I want our time together to be a space where you feel comfortable being honest, where your concerns are heard, and where you never feel like you have to fit into a one-size-fits-all approach.
My goal is to build a genuine, collaborative relationship and create a treatment plan that makes sense for you—one that supports not only symptom improvement, but your ability to feel more like yourself and move forward with confidence.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Therapist in Harrison
Finding psychiatrists in Harrison starts with knowing which type of mental health care fits your needs. Psychiatrists and psychiatric nurse practitioners can diagnose mental health conditions, prescribe medication, and manage medication plans. Therapists provide talk therapy and may work with psychiatrists as part of your care. If you are looking for support with anxiety, depression, ADHD, bipolar disorder, OCD, or medication management, review each psychiatrist’s listed specialties, training, and bio to see how their experience matches what you want to address.
Harrison is a smaller local market, so nearby in-person psychiatry appointments may be more limited than in larger parts of Westchester County or New York City. Virtual appointments can expand your options while still letting you choose a psychiatrist licensed in New York. Psychiatric care often includes shorter, less frequent medication management visits than therapy, though some psychiatrists also offer therapy. As you compare options, look at appointment availability, whether the psychiatrist is accepting new patients, and whether a free phone consultation is offered. Bios can also show communication style, areas of focus, and what to expect from sessions.
Psychiatric care in Harrison 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 booking. Headway helps you search for psychiatrists who match your needs, verify your insurance, and view estimated out-of-pocket costs upfront. Every psychiatrist listed is accepting new patients, making it easier to compare profiles, confirm coverage for your plan, 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.
