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.
Hello , I am a therapist with over 30 years of experience working with teens and adults. I have worked in both inpatient and outpatient mental health settings. My priority is to create a therapeutic relationship in a safe, judgement free space.
Reaching out for help can be challenging and often feels overwhelming. I understand first hand just how dark the path to recovery can seem. But please know, you are not alone! I specialize in working with young adults and adults ages 18+ who suffer from mild-moderate anxiety, depression, intrusive thoughts, addiction, and life transitions. I utilize a collaborative and individualized approach so my client's always feel heard and understood. No two individuals are ever treated the same!

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Therapist in East Meadow
Searching for therapists in East Meadow starts with finding someone whose training fits what you want support with. Many people look for therapy for anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, grief, stress, or life transitions. As you compare therapists, look for listed specialties and therapy approaches that match your needs, such as cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavior therapy, acceptance and commitment therapy, or trauma-informed care. A therapist’s bio can also help you understand their style, what they focus on, and what a first session may look like.
East Meadow is a smaller Long Island community, so the number of nearby in-person therapists may vary by schedule, specialty, and office location. Virtual therapy can expand your options across New York while still letting you see a therapist licensed in the state. As you narrow your search, consider whether the therapist is accepting new patients, offers appointment times that fit your calendar, and provides a free phone consultation. Reading profiles before booking can help you compare communication style, session structure, and areas of focus.
Therapy in East Meadow can be a significant cost 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 makes it easier to search for therapists who take insurance, review estimated out-of-pocket costs before booking, and choose between virtual and in-person appointments when available. You can browse therapists, read bios, and book directly when you’re ready.
