Great to meet you!

I'm Peggy Hardy, a Psychiatric-Mental Health Nurse Practitioner (PMHNP) with over 8 years in private practice. I offer telehealth psychiatric care to clients in New York, specializing in ADHD, anxiety, and depression. My practice has grown entirely through word of mouth — a reflection of the trust my clients place in me. I accept most major insurance plans, including Medicare and Medicaid, making quality care accessible. Whether you're newly struggling or have lived with these challenges for years, I'll meet you where you are — without judgment — and partner with you on a plan that truly fits your life.

My approach to therapy

I lead with compassion, experience, and directness. My approach is collaborative — I listen closely, ask the right questions, and involve you in every decision. With 8+ years of clinical experience, I tailor each treatment plan to the individual. Care should be clear, effective, and centered on you.

What you can expect from me

Your first session is a conversation, not an evaluation. I'll learn about your history, what's been challenging, and what you hope to achieve. Together we'll map out a care plan — including medication management if appropriate. You'll leave with clarity, clear next steps, and confidence you're in good hands
