Dr. Rachael Murphy

PLEASE READ BEFORE BOOKING, thank you. I am a board-certified Psychiatrist (medical doctor) providing virtual care throughout NY and PA. I taper medications. This means my patients want to reduce or stop psychiatric medications, and I guide them through that process at a safe pace. My 30-minute follow-up sessions include supportive counsel, though I do not offer weekly one-hour therapy. Many of my patients also work with a therapist. My understanding of suffering and hope is rooted in a Christ-centered faith, which shapes the wisdom and care I bring to my work.

I founded RiverStep Health to create a place where healing isn't about labels, quick fixes, or pharmaceutical dependency, but about finding real solutions instead of trading your original symptoms for medication side effects.

My approach bridges neuroscience, lifestyle medicine, and real-world practicality, without losing sight of your story or your autonomy.

This is recovery work, not quitting. We're not just getting you down off medication. We're treating underlying causes, managing any withdrawal symptoms, and helping you get your life back.
