Introduce yourself to help prospective clients learn about you and your practice. We recommend including your professional background, education and any specific treatment areas you specialize in.
I am a board certified psychiatrist specializing in child, adolescent and adult psychiatry . I have 27 years of experience in practice treating patients with depression, anxiety , mood and bipolar disorders, ADHD, impulse control disorders , schizophrenia , obsessive compulsive disorder , post traumatic stress disorder , dementia and autism related mood and impulse control disorders as well as Somatoform and personality disorders
I am an LMHC in New York. I have been in private practice since 2015. I obtained my Master's Degree in Mental Health Counseling in 2012 and began working in a residential setting, providing services to adults with chronic mental illness and substance use disorders, receiving numerous promotions along the way. After 11 years, I decided to move onto something new, obtaining a position as a Clinical Director in an outpatient clinic. I recently decided to pursue my private practice full time.
You hold the world together for everyone else. But balancing the complex demands of caretaking, family crises, or supporting a child's disability means your own needs have likely taken a backseat.
My goal is to give you that space back. I bring a grounded, warm presence (and a little humor) to the therapeutic process. Together, we can actively untangle the overwhelm or create a quiet space for profound realizations. Let's talk about how to get you feeling grounded again.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Mental Health Therapist in Mount Vernon, NY
Searching for therapists in Mount Vernon starts with finding someone whose training fits what you want to work on. People often look for therapy for anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, grief, work stress, or life transitions. As you compare Mount Vernon therapists, look for specialties and approaches that match your needs, such as cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavior therapy, trauma-informed care, or family therapy. A therapist’s bio can also show how they structure sessions and what you can expect from their style.
In a smaller city like Mount Vernon, the right local fit may depend on more than office location. Virtual therapy can expand your options while still letting you choose a therapist licensed in New York. You may also want to compare appointment availability, whether a therapist is accepting new patients, and whether they offer a free phone consultation before the first session. Reading profiles before booking can help you evaluate communication style, experience, and whether the therapist’s approach fits the kind of support you want.
Therapy in Mount Vernon can be a significant investment without insurance, and using in-network coverage is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs. Headway helps you search for a Mount Vernon therapist who takes your insurance, view estimated out-of-pocket costs before booking, and choose between virtual and in-person care. You can browse therapists, review bios, and book directly when you’re ready.
If anyone in your family is experiencing or worried about abuse, threats, or coercion, joint family or couples therapy usually isn't the right starting point — individual support is safer. The Childhelp National Child Abuse Hotline (1-800-422-4453) and National Domestic Violence Hotline (1-800-799-7233, or text START to 88788\) can help you think through next steps.
