I have had the privilege of working as an individual and group therapist in numerous therapeutic settings. These experiences have allowed me to utilize various treatment modalities in order to empower the individuals I work with.

Dr. Matthew Quinterno

Psychologist

In-person • 20 mi away • Merrick, NY


I’m a licensed psychologist with training and clinical experience across inpatient, outpatient, partial hospitalization, and private practice settings. I completed my PsyD at Hofstra University and have worked in hospital-based systems, as well as community and school-based settings.

I work with adults and adolescents facing a range of concerns, including depression, anxiety, trauma-related difficulties, personality-related patterns, psychosis-spectrum conditions, and life transitions. I also have experience supporting individuals navigating identity development, relationship challenges, and long-standing patterns of emotional distress that feel difficult to change.

Across settings, I have found that people often come to therapy not just because of symptoms, but because they want to feel more understood, more grounded, and more connected to themselves and others.

Happy patient looking away

Find the right therapist 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 East Islip

Finding the right therapist in East Islip starts with getting clear on what you're looking for. Consider the concerns you want to address — such as anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, or life transitions — and look for a licensed provider who has experience in those areas. In Suffolk County, common provider types include licensed clinical social workers (LCSWs), licensed mental health counselors (LMHCs), and psychologists, each with different training backgrounds. Reading a provider's bio can help you understand their approach and whether they might be a good match.

Practical details matter, too. Think about whether you prefer in-person sessions in the East Islip area or virtual appointments from home, and what days and times work with your schedule. If you're considering couples or family therapy, confirm that the provider offers those formats. A free phone consultation — when available — can help you get a sense of a provider's style before committing to a full session.

Therapy on Long Island can be expensive without coverage, but using your in-network insurance benefits is one of the most reliable ways to reduce what you pay out of pocket. On Headway, you can enter your insurance details to see estimated session costs before you book, and many patients pay as low as $0 per visit. Nationally, Headway partners with over 100 insurance plans, making it easier to find a therapist in East Islip who fits both your clinical needs and your budget.
