I believe that therapy can be an essential tool used to maintain a well-balanced, healthy, and fulfilling life. As a therapist, I find it important to create a safe and friendly environment. I strive to always be in tune with what you need and assist you in exploring whatever difficulty you may be experiencing.
I am a Double Board-Certified nurse practitioner specializing in psychiatric mental health and family health. As a dedicated psychiatric nurse practitioner, I use an integrative and holistic approach to mental health. As a family nurse practitioner, I take into consideration how physical health impacts mood and relationships. I employ evidence-based medication management. Together, we can pinpoint what's causing you stress and navigate towards a balanced state. I employ brief supportive psychotherapy in every session to help patients manage their emotions, particularly those dealing with chronic illnesses or experiencing high levels of stress. By offering empathy and validation, I aim to strengthen coping mechanisms, boost resilience, and enhance overall mental well-being.

Factors to Consider When Choosing an ADHD Therapist in Brooklyn, NY
Searching for ADHD therapists in Brooklyn starts with knowing what kind of support you want. Therapy for ADHD can focus on executive function skills, cognitive behavioral therapy for ADHD, emotional regulation strategies, and support with organization or follow-through. Medication management is separate from therapy and is handled by a psychiatrist or another qualified prescriber. Some people look for one type of care, while others work with both. If you are looking for an ADHD therapist for adults, support for a child or teen, or care that also addresses anxiety, depression, or stress, review each therapist’s listed specialties and approach before booking.
Brooklyn has many mental health therapists across neighborhoods, which can make the number of choices harder to sort through. Location may matter if you prefer in-person sessions near home, work, school, or transit. Virtual sessions can also expand your options if your schedule changes often or you want to search beyond nearby offices. As you compare therapists, look at appointment availability, whether they are accepting new patients, and whether they offer a free phone consultation. Therapist bios can help you understand how they work with ADHD, how they structure sessions, and whether their communication style matches what you are looking for.
Therapy in Brooklyn 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 care begins. Headway helps you find therapists who take your insurance, show real-time availability, and are accepting new patients. You can enter your plan details to see estimated out-of-pocket costs upfront, then browse profiles, compare fit, 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.
