Accepting New Patients! Hello! I'm Siji Varghese, a Nurse Practitioner in Psychiatry. I conduct psychiatric evaluations, diagnose mental health conditions, and prescribe medications. I have over 10 years of experience as an NP working in various inpatient and outpatient settings. I have been working in the mental health field for over 15 years. As a provider, I hope to provide you with safe, non judgmental space to address any mental health symptoms interfering with your ability to live your best life whether in school, work or family
Hi there, I am Sarah. I work with adolescents and young adults who are looking for support with mental health concerns that are affecting daily life, relationships, school, work, or overall well-being. Many of my clients come to me with symptoms of depression, anxiety, bipolar disorder, ADHD, trauma-related concerns, insomnia, or other psychiatric conditions. Some are looking for answers and an initial diagnosis, while others want ongoing medication management and support to help them feel more stable and confident. No matter where you are in your journey, I am here to help.
Your mind and body are speaking—are you listening? As a board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner with over a decade of experience in high-stakes intensive care, I understand what many overlook: mental and physical health are inseparable.
In critical care, I saw how stress, trauma, and anxiety manifest in the body—tight chests, sleepless nights, unexplained pain. And when the pandemic hit, I witnessed the silent emotional suffering of patients, families, and healthcare workers alike. That moment changed everything.
I chose psychiatry because healing your mind is just as vital as healing your body. If you’re feeling overwhelmed, exhausted, or like no one sees what you’re carrying—you don’t have to hold it alone. I’m here to help you reconnect, restore, and rise.

I’m a board-certified Nurse Practitioner with over a decade of experience working in ICU. My background in ICU shaped how I understand the deep connection between physical and mental health, especially how stress, trauma, and anxiety often show up in the body. I transitioned into psychiatry after witnessing firsthand the emotional toll the pandemic had on patients, families, and healthcare workers. It became clear to me that supporting people’s mental health is just as essential as treating physical conditions.
**Important for New Jersey patients seeking STIMULANT treatment:
Due to New Jersey state regulations, patients prescribed stimulant medications are required to attend an in-person visit at least once every three months. These visits are scheduled at my SoHo office in Manhattan.
Please note that there is a $100 facility fee for in-person visits to cover the cost of the clinical space. This fee is separate from insurance and is due at the time of the visit.**

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Psychiatrist in Hamburg, NY
Finding psychiatrists in Hamburg starts with knowing whether you want medication support, therapy, or both. Psychiatrists and psychiatric nurse practitioners can diagnose mental health conditions, prescribe medication, and manage ongoing medication needs. Therapists provide talk therapy and offer a different type of support. If you are looking for care related to anxiety, depression, ADHD, bipolar disorder, or OCD, look for a psychiatrist whose profile lists experience with your specific concern and explains their approach to follow-up care.
In a smaller city like Hamburg, local psychiatry options may be more limited than in larger areas nearby, so virtual appointments can expand your search. Psychiatric care often follows a different cadence than therapy. Medication management appointments are usually shorter and less frequent, while some psychiatrists also offer therapy. Some people work with both a therapist and a prescriber. As you compare options, review appointment availability, whether a free phone consultation is offered, and each psychiatrist’s bio to understand communication style, specialties, and session structure before booking.
Psychiatric care in Hamburg can be a significant expense without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs and understand what you may pay before care begins. Headway helps you find psychiatrists who accept your plan, are accepting new patients, and offer virtual or in-person appointments when available. You can enter your insurance details, compare estimated costs, read profiles, and book directly when you’re ready.
If you're already taking psychiatric medication and considering switching providers, talk to your current prescriber before changing or stopping any medication — most psychiatric medications shouldn't be stopped abruptly. Anyone experiencing thoughts of self-harm or in acute crisis should call 988 or go to the nearest emergency department rather than wait for an outpatient appointment.
