Hi, I’m Nikki — owner of Dragonfly Haven Wellness LCSW PLLC. I’m looking forward to starting our work together.
I’m a licensed clinical social worker with a Master’s in Social Work from Fordham University, earned in 2003. Since then, I’ve had the privilege of supporting children, teens, adults, and families through life’s challenges in both outpatient and school-based mental health settings.
I believe therapy works best when you feel safe, supported, and genuinely understood. My approach is warm and collaborative, while also helping to point out connections to support your growth. I draw from a blend of psychodynamic therapy, relational approaches, CBT, DBT, motivational interviewing, and Encompass co-occurring treatment to help clients build insight, strengthen coping skills, and create meaningful change.
I’ve recently completed a certified integrative mental health provider course and somatic technique training to focus more on body-based approaches alongside traditional talk therapy to support healing as a whole-person process.
Whether you’re navigating anxiety, depression, stress, relationship challenges, life transitions, or simply feeling stuck, you don’t have to do it alone. My goal is to create a space where you feel comfortable showing up exactly as you are and knowing that I am here to work alongside you as you move towards change.
I believe everyone deserves a space where they feel seen, heard, understood, and supported. With more than 20 years of experience in mental health, community healthcare, education, and non-profit settings, I've had the privilege of walking alongside adolescents, adults, and families through life's most challenging moments. I understand that seeking therapy can feel vulnerable, and I strive to create a warm, compassionate, and culturally responsive environment where you can show up as your authentic self. My goal is to help you build on your strengths, deepen self-awareness, and move toward a life that feels balanced, fulfilling, and aligned with your values.
I am a Board Certified Mental Health Nurse Practitioner (PMHNP). I offer comprehensive Psychiatric evaluations, medication management, and therapy for Adults, adolescents and children. I look forward to meeting with you, together we will be able to formulate and individualized your treatment plan.
I specialize in a wide range of mental health conditions, including anxiety, depression, ADHD, mood disorders and behavioral concerns.
You can have a positive mindset with SOLUTION-FOCUSED THERAPY. Feeling worried, or your thoughts race, your sleep is off, or you get that feeling in your stomach? At times we get frustrated enough with someone that it affects your work, family life, or health. I know how it sucks to be questioning, stuck, and worked up with tension and concern. Then, self-doubt creeps in--but it doesn’t need to be like that anymore. If you’re curious how to get things calmer, under control, and feel more self-assured, I’m here as a confidant who listens deeply AND offers tools that really work. You CAN increase confidence!

Headway helps you stay on track with expert-guided support for ADHD — from finding the right therapist or psychiatrist, to understanding costs, to scheduling with ease.
Factors to Consider When Choosing an ADHD Therapist in New York City
Finding ADHD therapists in New York starts with knowing what kind of support you want. A therapist for ADHD may help with executive function skills, cognitive behavioral therapy for ADHD, emotional regulation strategies, and patterns that affect focus, planning, or impulse control. A psychiatrist can support medication management when that is part of your care plan. Some people look for one type of care, while others work with both. If you are searching for ADHD therapy for adults, pediatric ADHD support, counseling for ADHD, or help with anxiety or depression that can occur alongside ADHD, look for a therapist whose listed specialties and bio match your needs.
Across New York, available ADHD specialists can vary between New York City, Buffalo, Albany, and more rural areas. Virtual appointments can expand your options if nearby offices have limited availability or if your schedule works better from home. As you compare therapists, review whether they are accepting new clients, offer appointment times that fit your calendar, and have experience with both ADHD and related concerns like anxiety or depression. Provider bios can also show how a therapist structures sessions, communicates, and approaches practical skill-building.
The cost of ADHD therapy in New York varies, and using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs. Headway helps you search for licensed therapists and psychiatrists who are accepting new clients, review detailed profiles, and see your estimated out-of-pocket cost before you book. Nationally, Headway partners with many insurance plans, and you can enter your insurance details to confirm coverage for your location and plan. From there, you can compare ADHD therapists, review bios, and book directly when you are ready.
If you're already taking psychiatric medication and considering switching providers, talk to your current prescriber before changing or stopping any medication — most psychiatric medications shouldn't be stopped abruptly. Anyone experiencing thoughts of self-harm or in acute crisis should call 988 or go to the nearest emergency department rather than wait for an outpatient appointment.
