As a Board-Certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner, I partner with children, teens, and families to provide comprehensive, compassionate mental health care. My practice specializes in the evaluation, diagnosis, and treatment of ADHD, anxiety, Oppositional Defiant Disorder (ODD), depression, and OCD. I believe in looking at the whole child, blending evidence-based medical management with therapeutic support to help your child thrive at home, in school, and in life.

What uniquely informs my psychiatric practice is my foundational background in pediatric neurology. This specialized experience allows me to deeply understand the complex intersection between brain development, neurological functioning, and behavioral health. When treating conditions like ADHD or OCD, I look beyond surface-level symptoms to understand the underlying neurological drivers, allowing me to create highly precise, targeted treatment plans that standard approaches might miss.

Happy patient looking away

Find the right counselor for your family

Headway makes it easier to find family-focused support — from finding the right provider, to understanding costs, to scheduling with ease.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Family Therapist in New York

Searching for family therapists in New York starts with finding someone whose training fits what your family is navigating. Family therapy may support concerns like parenting conflict, adolescent struggles, blended family dynamics, and communication breakdowns across generations. Family therapists are trained to work with the relational system, not just one person. As you compare options, look for therapists whose listed specialties, approach, and experience match the needs you want to address.

Across New York, available therapists and appointment formats can vary between New York City, Buffalo, Albany, and rural areas. Some families prefer meeting in person, while others use virtual sessions to make scheduling easier across households, school schedules, or work hours. Session attendance may include the full family, smaller groups, or individual family members, depending on the therapist’s approach. Reading therapist bios can help you understand how they structure family sessions, whether they offer a free phone consultation, and when they are available.

The cost of new york family counseling can vary, and using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs. Headway helps you find therapists who are accepting new patients, review estimated out-of-pocket costs before booking, and choose between virtual and in-person care. Nationally, Headway partners with over 100 insurance plans, so you can confirm coverage for your location and plan, compare therapist profiles, 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.
