Sharay Chambers

Psychiatric Mental Health NP

Virtual • New York


Anxiety and depression can make everyday life feel exhausting — and finding the right support shouldn't add to that. I'm a Psychiatric Nurse Practitioner practicing via telehealth across New York State, and I genuinely love what I do. My style is collaborative: I'm not here to hand you a prescription and send you on your way. I want to understand your full picture — your history, your goals, what you've tried before — and build a plan that actually fits your life. Care works best when it feels like a partnership, and that's exactly what I aim for. There's no one-size-fits-all when it comes to mental health, and I'll never treat it that way. If you're ready to take the next step — or even just curious about what that might look like — I'd love to connect.

Find the right psychiatrist 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 Mount Vernon

Finding the right psychiatrist in Mount Vernon, NY starts with understanding the type of care you need. Psychiatrists are medical doctors who can evaluate mental health conditions, prescribe medication, and monitor how that medication is working over time. If you're looking for help with anxiety, depression, ADHD, bipolar disorder, or PTSD — or if you need ongoing medication management — a psychiatrist may be the right fit. Psychiatric nurse practitioners (PMHNPs) can also prescribe and manage medication and are another option available through Headway.

With many mental health providers practicing across Westchester County, narrowing your search can take time. Consider what matters most to you — whether that's a provider who specializes in a specific condition, someone who offers virtual appointments, or a psychiatrist who practices near Mount Vernon. Reading a provider's bio can help you understand their approach and decide if they're a good match before you book.

Psychiatry sessions in Mount Vernon can be expensive without insurance. Using your in-network benefits is one of the most reliable ways to lower your out-of-pocket costs. On Headway, you can enter your insurance details to see estimated session costs upfront, and many patients pay as low as $0 per visit. Nationally, Headway partners with over 100 insurance plans, making it easier to find a psychiatrist who is both the right clinical fit and covered by your plan.
