I am a board-certified Psychiatrist (medical doctor) providing virtual care throughout NY and PA. I taper medications. This means most of my patients want to safely reduce or ultimately stop taking psychiatric medications, and I guide them through that process safely and at their own pace. I include therapy in my 30-min follow up sessions, though do not offer weekly 1-hour therapy sessions. Many of my patients also work with a therapist.

Hi, I’m a Board Certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner. I graduated from Drexel University with my Master's degree in Nursing. I then completed my Post-Graduate Certificate in Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner. I have over twenty years of experience working in healthcare. Psych has always been my passion. My experiences encompass working with clients across the life span, including Child and Adolescents, Adult, and Geriatric patient populations. I’ve provided services to clients presenting with many psychiatric disorders, such as Anxiety, Depression, ADHD, Bipolar Disorder, and more. I’m in the belief that mental health wellbeing is a priority. Human beings are resilient. Holistic care is the key to promoting better patient outcomes. Therefore, I believe that with an evidence-based practice treatment plan consisting of psychotherapy and/or a combination of psychotherapy and medication management, one will be able to control their mental health.
I’m a very compassionate, caring, and empathetic person. I strive to provide holistic care and collaborate with my clients to develop a treatment plan that they are comfortable with.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Mental Health Therapist in Philadelphia
Searching for therapists in Philadelphia starts with finding the right clinical fit for your needs. Across neighborhoods like Center City, South Philly, West Philly, and Northeast Philadelphia, therapists may support concerns such as anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, grief, trauma, ADHD, and life transitions. As you compare options, look for a therapist whose listed specialties, therapy style, and experience match what you want support with. Provider bios can also help you understand whether a therapist uses approaches like cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavior therapy, eye movement desensitization and reprocessing, or strength-based care.
Philadelphia has many therapists, which can make the search feel harder to narrow. Practical details matter, too. Consider whether you prefer in-person therapy near work, home, campus, or a transit route, or virtual therapy that fits your schedule from home. You can also compare appointment availability, whether the therapist is accepting new patients, and whether they offer a free phone consultation before you book. Reading profiles closely can give you a clearer sense of communication style, session structure, and what to expect in the first appointment.
Therapy in Philadelphia can be a significant investment without insurance, and using in-network benefits is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs. Headway helps you search for Philadelphia therapists who are accepting new patients, match your preferences, and accept a wide range of insurance plans. You can enter your insurance details to see an estimated out-of-pocket cost before booking, then review bios and schedule directly when you are ready.
