Book a therapist or psychiatrist in New Paltz, NY covered by United Healthcare

Hi, I’m a board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner with over 20 years of nursing experience across acute care, leadership, and education. I’ve worked with children, adolescents, and adults managing depression, anxiety, bipolar disorder, ADHD, trauma, and complex mental health needs. My approach is warm, collaborative, and practical. I believe in meeting people where they are and creating a safe space to be heard. Together, we’ll build a treatment plan that feels realistic, supportive, and centered around your goals.

My therapeutic approach focuses on my belief that when it comes to an individual’s life, they are the expert. However, managing that alone can be cumbersome and stressful. As a therapist, I’m interested in collaborating with you to discover what parts of your life you hope to keep or perhaps enrich and what factors you want to change. I look to combine my experience with my clinical knowledge to aid clients in their journey to becoming their best selves.

My passion is to help others achieve wellness. I am a board certified Psychiatric Nurse Practitioner with over 10 years of experience. I currently work both inpatient and outpatient facilities within New York City. I specialize in the diagnoses and treatment of adults with a range of mental health issues.

I offer comprehensive psychiatric evaluation, individual psychotherapy and medication management for adults. My goal is to explore each of my patient's situations and issues judiciously before arriving at appropriate diagnosis and treatment plan.

My patients often say that I am approachable, personable, and respond quickly to emails/phone calls. I am accepting new patients.

Hello, and welcome! I'm a board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner (PMHNP-BC) dedicated to providing compassionate, evidence-based care for children, adolescents, and adults experiencing a wide range of mental health conditions.

My approach to psychiatric care begins with listening. I believe every person has a unique story, and understanding your experiences, concerns, and goals is the foundation of effective treatment. My priority is to create a safe, supportive, and nonjudgmental environment where you feel heard, respected, and actively involved in your care.

I take a patient-centered, holistic approach, looking beyond symptoms to understand the whole person. Rather than treating diagnoses alone, we will work together to identify what is causing you the most distress and address it one step at a time. I carefully review your psychiatric history, including previous medications, what has or hasn't worked, and any side effects you've experienced, so we can develop a treatment plan that is individualized, practical, and based on the best available evidence.

My treatment philosophy combines medication management with education, supportive therapy, lifestyle recommendations, and collaborative decision-making. I strive to identify the root causes contributing to your symptoms while helping you build lasting coping skills and improve your overall quality of life.

Above all, patient safety, compassion, and collaboration guide every decision I make. My goal is to build a trusting therapeutic relationship where you feel comfortable asking questions, sharing concerns, and participating in decisions about your care. Together, we'll create a personalized treatment plan that supports your mental wellness and helps you achieve meaningful, lasting progress.

I'm so happy you're here and have chosen to take that first step that is often the most difficult. My primary focus is to meet you where you are on your journey and sit with you as we explore your story and sort through the experiences that brought you here. I will support you as we process the stuff keeping you feeling stuck.

I also have a RN degree from Rutgers University making me an excellent health coach and case management for health and dialysis questions

I received my BA in Psychology from LIU CW Post Campus (2004) and my MSW from Fordham Graduate School of Social Service (2013). I have 17 years of experience in the child welfare system, seven years of clinical practice, five years of practicum instruction and two years as an adjunct professor for social work education. .

I use a variety of treatment modalities including Cognitive Behavioral Treatment (CBT), Gestalt-therapy, trauma-based therapy, and psychodynamic therapy,

I’m Dylan, a Licensed Clinical Social Worker in New York and New Jersey. I support adults who grew up in difficult family systems and are realizing past experiences are still showing up in their relationships today. Most of my clients are in their 20's and 30's and have experienced trauma, anxiety, and challenging family and relationship dynamics. They sometimes feel overwhelmed by the idea of starting therapy, when their plates are already full with day-to-day life. I help them start their therapeutic process in a way that feels welcoming and approachable. I have experience working with diverse client populations and the LGBTQIA+ community. I strive to foster an environment in sessions where clients feel comfortable showing up as their most authentic selves.
