I’m a board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner dedicated to providing compassionate, evidence-based mental health care. I work with adolescents and adults ages 13-65 experiencing anxiety, depression, ADHD, insomnia, mood disorders, trauma-related concerns, and substance use challenges. My practice focuses on integrative psychiatry, combining traditional psychiatric treatment with lifestyle, nutrition, sleep optimization, and wellness strategies to support whole-person healing. I am especially passionate about helping individuals from diverse backgrounds, including BIPOC communities, LGBTQIA+ individuals, college students, and young professionals.
I am a New York State Licensed Mental Health Counselor with over 15 years of experience working in the field. I am passionate about what I do and feel very fortunate to have worked with a very diverse and inspiring group of individuals, families and community providers in my time in the field. I also love hiking, biking and spending as much time as I can with my family.
Hi there! I'm Dr. Sean. I help people break out of vicious cycles and build a life they love to live.
I work with individuals from birth to age 30, and their families. My specialty is treating ADHD and other complex issues for which help is often hard to find.
In addition to my doctoral training, I completed a postdoctoral fellowship at Geisinger in pediatric psychology (2014). I am a licensed psychologist in PA and NY.
I came to therapy from teaching, and that background shapes how I show up: I'm used to adapting to who's in front of me, reading what's unsaid, and finding an approach that actually fits the person — not just the presenting concern.
I work with adolescents and adults on trauma, PTSD, anxiety, panic, maternal mental health, grief, and family stress. EMDR is a core part of my practice — particularly for clients whose past experiences still affect how they feel and function today, even when they'd rather they didn't.
I keep a small, intentional caseload. If you'd like to see if we're a good fit, I offer a free phone consultation before we commit to anything.
My name is Janet O’Hare. In my psychotherapy practice, I work with people of all ages and many backgrounds, with all kinds of goals and concerns. These often include:
· Addressing worries and stresses
· Navigating knotty problems in life
· Working on relationships
· Welcoming a new child into the family
· Dealing with a serious illness
· Handling a major career challenge
· Managing trauma-related issues
I am especially interested in the zone where the waves of the soul crash on the rocks of the body. I have a great deal of experience with trauma of many types, in many degrees of severity. I have also worked extensively with, and have a special love for, new families, mothers and childbearing. I am honored to be present at the end of life. I am a psychodynamic feminist and am deeply interested in history and in political and moral movements.
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.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Postpartum Therapist in Buffalo
Finding postpartum therapists in Buffalo starts with knowing what kind of support fits this stage of care. Postpartum concerns can include more than depression, such as postpartum anxiety, birth-related stress, identity shifts, and relationship strain. As you compare therapists, look for experience in perinatal mental health, post-natal care, postpartum care services, or post pregnancy care. A listed PMH-C credential can also signal specialized training in perinatal mental health.
In Buffalo, local options may include therapists with offices near your home, workplace, or regular route, while virtual sessions can expand access when scheduling is tight. For many new parents, appointment time, infant care, physical recovery, and transportation all shape what feels realistic. You can narrow your search by availability, session format, therapeutic approach, and whether a therapist offers a free phone consultation. Reading therapist bios can also help you see how they describe postpartum care plans, communication style, and experience with new parents.
Postpartum health care in Buffalo can be a significant expense without insurance. Using in-network coverage is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs and understand what you may pay before care begins. Headway makes it easier to search for therapists who match your needs and are accepting new patients. You can enter your insurance details on Headway to confirm coverage for your specific plan and see available options in Buffalo. You can review profiles, check estimated out-of-pocket costs, and book directly when you’re ready.
