Saheed Jalade

Psychiatric Mental Health NP

Virtual • New York


I am a board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner (PMHNP-BC) with over 10 years of healthcare experience, providing telehealth psychiatry and virtual care to patients across New York. My strong medical background helps me recognize the vital link between

mental and physical health, allowing me to deliver thoughtful, integrated psychiatry services rather than treating symptoms in isolation.

I focus on medication management for anxiety and depression, along with adult ADHD, bipolar disorder, and trauma and PTSD management, using thorough psychiatric assessments, medication management, and supportive therapy for stress, burnout, and mood disorders. I also have particular experience in women’s mental health,

including postpartum depression and the concerns that often go unaddressed in general psychiatric care.

My aim is to foster a safe, compassionate, and non-judgmental environment where clients feel heard and respected. I believe mental health treatment is most effective when it’s collaborative and personalized

I work closely with each client to develop a tailored

treatment plan that promotes emotional well-being, stability, and an improved quality of life.

All appointments are conducted through secure virtual care, and I accept insurance through Headway, so cost is rarely a barrier to getting started.

Frequently asked questions

Therapy Chair

Happy patient looking away

Find an expert who truly understands OCD

Headway helps you manage obsessive-compulsive disorder with expert-guided support — from finding the right therapist or psychiatrist, to understanding costs, to scheduling with ease.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Therapist in Yonkers

Finding the right OCD therapist in Yonkers starts with looking for a licensed provider who has specific training in obsessive-compulsive disorder. Exposure and response prevention (ERP), a specialized form of cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), is one treatment approach that some providers use for obsessive-compulsive disorder, and a qualified clinician can help determine what approach may be appropriate. Some providers also use acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT) or combine therapy with medication management. A psychiatrist or psychiatric nurse practitioner can help if medication is part of your care plan.

When evaluating providers, consider whether they have direct experience with OCD rather than listing it as one of many specialties. Reading a provider's bio can help you understand their background, clinical approach, and what a session looks like before you commit. Practical factors matter too — like whether they offer virtual sessions, have availability that fits your schedule, and are located in or near Yonkers or the broader Westchester County area.

Therapy in the New York metro area can be expensive, but using your in-network insurance benefits is one of the most reliable ways to reduce your out-of-pocket costs. On Headway, you can enter your insurance details to see estimated session costs before you book, and many patients pay as low as $0 per visit. Nationally, Headway partners with over 100 insurance plans, making it easier to find an OCD specialist who is both the right clinical fit and covered by your plan.
