Hi there, I am Sarah. I work with adolescents and young adults who are looking for support with mental health concerns that are affecting daily life, relationships, school, work, or overall well-being. Many of my clients come to me with symptoms of depression, anxiety, bipolar disorder, ADHD, trauma-related concerns, insomnia, or other psychiatric conditions.

Virtual • New York, NY
I am a board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner (PMHNP-BC) with over 10 years of healthcare experience, providing telehealth psychiatry and virtual care to patients across New York. My strong medical background helps me recognize the vital link between
mental and physical health, allowing me to deliver thoughtful, integrated psychiatry services rather than treating symptoms in isolation.
I focus on medication management for anxiety and depression, along with adult ADHD, bipolar disorder, and trauma and PTSD management, using thorough psychiatric assessments, medication management, and supportive therapy for stress, burnout, and mood disorders. I also have particular experience in women’s mental health,
including postpartum depression and the concerns that often go unaddressed in general psychiatric care.
My aim is to foster a safe, compassionate, and non-judgmental environment where clients feel heard and respected. I believe mental health treatment is most effective when it’s collaborative and personalized
I work closely with each client to develop a tailored
treatment plan that promotes emotional well-being, stability, and an improved quality of life.
All appointments are conducted through secure virtual care, and I accept insurance through Headway, so cost is rarely a barrier to getting started.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Psychiatrist in Wantagh, NY
Finding psychiatrists in Wantagh starts with understanding the type of mental health care you want to book. Psychiatrists and psychiatric nurse practitioners can diagnose mental health conditions, prescribe medication, and support medication management. Therapists provide talk therapy and support through other clinical approaches. If you’re looking for care for anxiety, depression, ADHD, bipolar disorder, or OCD, review each psychiatrist’s listed specialties, training, and care focus to see whether their background matches your needs.
In a smaller Long Island community like Wantagh, local psychiatry options may be more limited than in larger nearby areas, so virtual appointments can help expand your search. Psychiatric appointments for medication management are often shorter and less frequent than therapy sessions, though some psychiatrists also offer therapy. Some people work with both a therapist and a prescriber. As you compare options, look at appointment availability, whether the psychiatrist offers virtual or in-person visits, and whether a free phone consultation is available. Reading bios can also help you understand communication style, areas of focus, and what to expect before booking.
Psychiatric care in Wantagh can be a significant expense without insurance. Using in-network coverage is one of the most reliable ways to lower out-of-pocket costs. Headway helps you find psychiatrists who are accepting new patients, match your insurance, and offer upfront cost estimates before you book. You can browse profiles, compare availability, 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.
