I am a Double Board-Certified nurse practitioner specializing in psychiatric mental health and family 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.

Do you notice patterns of behaviors that you are unsatisfied with? Therapy is a significant step towards working through and facing life's most difficult challenges. I have worked with adults, adolescents and children treating issues of adjustment, self-doubt, mood swings, trauma and anxiety attacks. When you approach the therapeutic process with curiosity, you can grow, heal, and thrive.
Hi, I'm Elizabeth. I'm an LCSW with 10+ years of experience helping clients work towards their life goals.
Life today can be very stressful. We play many roles and we are constantly bombarded with information. We have many responsibilities and too little time. Sometimes it's hard to talk to your friends because they're going through the same thing and you don't want to burden them.
I believe prioritizing mental health is key to stability in life. I know there is a better world out there and people need the tools to connect with their upmost insight for mental well being. In this field I am always eager to research and find healing processes to tailor the need of each individual.
I am a board certified Mental Health Counselor who works with individuals and couples and provides care for patients who struggle with interpersonal relationships, depression and anxiety. I studied at Brooklyn College, where I obtained a MA in Mental Health Counseling. I also worked in the profession for over four years, where I established my objection relations & cognitive restructuring techniques that have been a crucial part of my practice and my patients' success and progress.
As a clinical psychologist, I assist patients in reshaping negative thought and behavior patterns in a judgement free setting.

Factors to Consider When Choosing an Anxiety Therapist in Garden City, NY
Searching for therapists in Garden City starts with knowing what kind of support and approach fits your needs. You may be looking for help with anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, grief, work stress, or a life transition. As you compare Garden City therapists, look for someone whose listed specialties and training match what you want to focus on. Provider bios can also show whether a therapist uses approaches like cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavior therapy, eye movement desensitization and reprocessing, or acceptance and commitment therapy.
Garden City is part of a larger Nassau County and Long Island mental health care market, so nearby options may include therapists in Mineola, Hempstead, Stewart Manor, and other surrounding communities. Local availability can vary, which makes virtual therapy a useful way to expand your search beyond the closest office. As you narrow your options, consider appointment times, whether the therapist is accepting new patients, session format, and whether a free phone consultation is offered. Reading profiles before booking can help you understand a therapist’s communication style, clinical focus, and what to expect in a first session.
Therapy in Garden City can be a significant expense 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 you book. Headway helps you find therapists who accept a wide range of insurance plans, offer in-person or virtual appointments, and are accepting new patients. You can browse therapists on Long Island, review bios, check your insurance, and book directly when you’re ready.
