Stephen Migden

Psychologist

Virtual • Plainview, NY


I'm a very well educated and deeply experienced therapist. My undergrad degree is from Columbia U, and my Ph.D. in clinical psychology is from NYU. I'm Board Certified in Clinical Psychology, and I also have a Postdoctoral Diploma in Psychotherapy. I was the director of a large and well regarded psychology internship program, and I have taught and supervised doctoral and postdoctoral psychology students at two major universities. I've been in practice for about 40 years. All of my professional experiences, along with my personal values, have contributed to my understanding that effective therapy not only requires a knowledge of technique, but also a capacity to build an emotionally safe setting for my clients, one in which we will be able to work together in addressing your challenges and building on your assets.

Have you been let down by the mental health system?

As a psychiatric nurse practitioner, I created my practice for individuals like you who are ready to move beyond symptom-chasing and find a clear, root-cause understanding of their mental health.

Find the right therapist for you

Headway makes it easy to find support for your mental health — from finding the right provider, to understanding costs, to scheduling with ease.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Therapist in New York

Searching for therapists in New York means choosing from a wide range of licensed professionals across urban, suburban, and rural areas. Your options may vary depending on where you live, what kind of support you want, and whether you prefer in-person or virtual sessions. If you’re looking for care related to anxiety, depression, ADHD, relationship challenges, grief, or life transitions, start by looking for a therapist whose listed specialties match your needs. Provider bios can also show whether a therapist uses approaches like cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavior therapy, or trauma-informed care.

Location and schedule matter, too. A therapist in New York City may offer different appointment options than one in Buffalo, Albany, or the Hudson Valley, and virtual therapy can help broaden your search beyond nearby offices. Some people prefer meeting in person, while others prefer the flexibility of virtual appointments from home. As you compare therapists, look at appointment availability, whether they offer free phone consultations, and how they describe their session style. Reading profiles before booking can help you understand how a therapist communicates, what they focus on, and whether their approach fits what you’re looking for.

The cost of mental health care in New York varies, but using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs. Headway helps make that process easier by showing therapists who are accepting new patients, verifying your insurance, and estimating your out-of-pocket cost before you book. Nationally, Headway partners with 100+ insurance plans, and you can confirm coverage based on your location and specific plan. Browse therapists, review bios, and book directly when you’re ready.
