Psychiatric Mental Health NP

Virtual • New York


I’m a board-certified Psychiatric Nurse Practitioner. I believe health is a human experience, not simply a clinical checklist. My background in traditional psychiatry has given me a strong understanding of mental health across diverse settings, grounded in evidence-based practice.

I take a compassionate, collaborative, and structured approach to care. I believe in creating a safe, nonjudgmental space where clients feel heard and supported. I work closely with each individual to develop personalized treatment plans that may include medication management and supportive therapy, always focusing on realistic and meaningful progress.

My goal is to help clients better understand their mental health, build effective coping strategies, and feel empowered in their treatment journey.

Lydia Moore

Therapist

Virtual & in-person • Buffalo, NY


I help women reconnect with themselves—especially in the moments when life hasn’t gone according to plan. Many of the women I work with are helpers themselves: therapists, educators, healthcare workers, mothers. They’re navigating overwhelm, grief, perfectionism, relationship struggles, and questions of identity. They’re high-achieving and deeply caring, yet often unsure how to extend the same compassion inward.

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 New York

Finding the right therapist in New York starts with getting clear on the type of support you need. Whether you're looking for help with anxiety, depression, relationship concerns, or a major life transition, choosing a licensed provider who specializes in your area of concern can make a meaningful difference. Common provider types in New York include licensed mental health counselors (LMHCs), licensed clinical social workers (LCSWs), psychologists, and psychiatrists — each with different training and areas of focus.

New York has one of the largest concentrations of mental health providers in the country, which can make narrowing your options feel overwhelming. Consider what matters most to you: a provider's specialty, whether they offer in-person or virtual sessions, their location relative to your neighborhood or commute, and their availability. Reading a provider's bio before booking can help you understand their style and approach so you feel more confident going in.

Therapy in New York can be expensive out of pocket, but using your in-network insurance benefits is one of the most reliable ways to reduce costs. On Headway, you can enter your insurance information to see which providers are covered and get an estimated session cost before you book. Nationally, Headway partners with over 100 insurance plans, and many patients pay as low as $0 per visit depending on their plan and location.
