Chandni Chaudhry

Psychiatric Mental Health NP

Virtual • New York


I’m a board-certified psychiatric nurse practitioner who began my career at the Dent Neurologic Institute, where I focused on the connection between brain function and mental health. I am a good listener and devote much of my appointment time to understanding patient concerns and treatment expectations. This helps me provide consistently positive outcomes without relying on polypharmacy or a hit-and-trial approach. My psychiatric practice is rooted in my knowledge of how different neurotransmitters influence mood, memory, intellect, and cognition, shaping each person’s unique experience.

If you're looking for a therapist who is direct and will challenge you, I might be a good fit. I'm not a therapist to just sit, listen, and provide head nods. My approach is straight forward and transparent. I'm able to probe if needed and provide honest and direct feedback when necessary. While I'm here to listen, my priority is to help people improve their lives. I enjoy working with Trauma, Anxiety and OCD especially.

Happy patient looking away

Find an expert who truly understands OCD

Headway helps you manage obsessive-compulsive disorder with expert-guided support — from finding the right therapist or psychiatrist, to understanding costs, to scheduling with ease.

Factors to Consider When Choosing an OCD Therapist in Brooklyn

Finding OCD therapists in Brooklyn starts with looking for training that matches the type of care you need. OCD can involve intrusive thoughts, compulsive checking, contamination fears, reassurance seeking, or unwanted mental rituals. Some therapists have training in approaches used to support people with OCD-related concerns, and not all therapists have specific training in every approach. As you compare therapists, look for bios that list OCD, ERP, cognitive behavioral therapy, or experience supporting people with obsessive thoughts and compulsive behaviors.

Brooklyn has many therapists across neighborhoods, but the right fit may depend on more than location. If local appointment times or commute options limit your search, virtual OCD therapy can expand the number of therapists available to you in New York. Pay close attention to whether a therapist lists OCD as an area of familiarity or names specific ERP training in their profile. It also helps to compare appointment availability, therapy approach, and whether a free phone consultation is offered before you book.

Therapy in Brooklyn can be expensive without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs and see your estimated out-of-pocket cost before your first visit. Headway helps you search for OCD therapists who are accepting new patients, compare detailed profiles, verify insurance, and book directly when you’re ready.
