Hi, I’m Salvatore, a board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner with over five years of experience in inpatient and outpatient mental health settings. Finding the right psychiatric care can feel overwhelming, especially when you’ve been trying to hold everything together on your own. I work with adolescents and adults who may be feeling anxious, depressed, unfocused, emotionally drained, or stuck in major life stressors. I offer a space where you can slow down, feel heard, and make medication and treatment decisions together at a pace that feels right for you.
Hey there! I’m Kristie. I have two wonderful children ,3 energetic Golden Retrievers, and 4 yes 4 barn cats. We love the outdoors and our pets . I understand how complex and messy life can be. I’m great with messy and complex. I’m understanding and non judge-mental. I specialize in trauma, families, and behaviors.
Born and raised in WNY, attended SUNY Buffalo, obtaining my bachelor's in psychology and master's in Social Work there.
I enjoy working with people of all ages who are striving to move through and process the difficult life experiences, changes and transitions we all experience such as grief & loss, divorce, trauma, addictions of all kinds, parenting and behavioral problems in children and adolescents.
I became a clinician because I firmly believe that my purpose in life is to help others heal through compassionate and empathic therapy. I hope we can start your healing process as soon as you are ready.
I’m a licensed mental health counselor who works with adults, couples, and young adults navigating anxiety, trauma, relationship challenges, and life transitions. I’ve trained across schools, community mental health, and outpatient settings, and I bring a grounded, real-world perspective into the therapy space. My work is culturally responsive and shaped by a strong commitment to equity, identity, and whole-person care. I aim to create a space where you feel understood, supported, and able to grow.
My passion is working with people and helping them to be the best they can be. I am a Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor in North Carolina and a Licensed Professional Counselor in South Carolina with 24+ years of therapeutic experience. My experience started in Mental Health Clinics, but I have been working in private practice for over 15 years. I help people with a variety of concerns to include stress, anxiety, coping with grief and loss, parenting issues, motivation, self-esteem, and confidence.
My name is Norma, and I am a board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner and graduate of Pace University. I chose to pursue mental health because I am passionate about helping individuals feel heard, supported, and empowered during some of the most vulnerable moments in their lives.
I have been working in the mental health field for 21 years, 11 as a therapist. I studied at Fordham University for my Master degree and Mercy University for my bachelors degree. I enjoy using all modalities of treatment and have a certificate in Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT). I've also done trauma focused studies and work as well. In my free time I love to be outside hiking with my two dogs. I have set a goal of hiking 365 miles for the year and 2025 was the 1st year we were able to accomplish that goal. I believe if your goal is important you keep trying until you reach it!

Factors to Consider When Choosing an Anxiety Therapist in New York
Searching for therapists in New York means choosing from a wide range of licensed professionals across urban, suburban, and rural areas. Your options may vary depending on where you live, what kind of support you want, and whether you prefer in-person or virtual sessions. If you’re looking for care related to anxiety, depression, ADHD, relationship challenges, grief, or life transitions, start by looking for a therapist whose listed specialties match your needs. Provider bios can also show whether a therapist uses approaches like cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavior therapy, or trauma-informed care.
Location and schedule matter, too. A therapist in New York City may offer different appointment options than one in Buffalo, Albany, or the Hudson Valley, and virtual therapy can help broaden your search beyond nearby offices. Some people prefer meeting in person, while others prefer the flexibility of virtual appointments from home. As you compare therapists, look at appointment availability, whether they offer free phone consultations, and how they describe their session style. Reading profiles before booking can help you understand how a therapist communicates, what they focus on, and whether their approach fits what you’re looking for.
The cost of mental health care in New York varies, but using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs. Headway helps make that process easier by showing therapists who are accepting new patients, verifying your insurance, and estimating your out-of-pocket cost before you book. Nationally, Headway partners with 100+ insurance plans, and you can confirm coverage based on your location and specific plan. Browse therapists, review bios, and book directly when you’re ready.
