Professional statement

Emily provides expert psychiatric medication management and supportive therapy for professional adults navigating immense pressures and distress. Her practice is dedicated to treating individuals experiencing high levels of stress, anxiety, depression, and significant professional burnout. She possesses a specialized understanding of the unique challenges faced by high-demand professionals, with particular insight into issues related to women’s mental health and the profound strain of caregiver burnout—especially for parents supporting children with special needs. Emily aims to move clients beyond merely surviving their symptoms toward finding genuine emotional stability and resilience.

Her therapeutic approach is grounded in comprehensive, evidence-based care. She offers targeted medication management for conditions including anxiety, depression, ADHD, and trauma-related disorders. To complement this, she integrates principles from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) for practical symptom reduction, Solution-Focused Therapy for efficient goal-setting, and a non-negotiable commitment to trauma-informed care. This integrative model ensures that every client receives a highly personalized and collaborative treatment plan designed to promote lasting change.

With over seven years of professional experience, Emily has cultivated a robust clinical background, which includes extensive work in fast-paced community mental health clinics, providing care to diverse individuals with complex mental health needs. Her prior decade of experience as a nurse in a Level 1 trauma center further distinguishes her practice, providing an unparalleled depth of insight into crisis management, physiological stress responses, and the critical intersection of physical and mental health.

To ensure broad accessibility and convenience, Emily offers all services via secure telehealth across the entire state of New York (NY). Her practice is in-network with a variety of major insurance providers, including Aetna, Cigna, Oscar, Optum, and BCBS, among others. Private pay is also accepted. Prospective clients are encouraged to reach out to verify their coverage and schedule a consultation.
