Prenatal and postpartum therapists & psychiatrists in New York

Are you feeling overwhelmed, stuck, or just not like yourself lately? You’re not alone—and you don’t have to go through it alone. As a board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner (PMHNP-BC), I specialize in evaluating, diagnosing, and treating a wide range of mental health conditions including anxiety, depression, mood disorders, ADHD, and more.

We all face challenging feelings, these feelings are normal; however, sometimes we need to develop the right tools to deal with them in a healthy way. I have a passion for mental health and supporting those on their journey to wellness. I integrate mental, physical, and spiritual health to help clients achieve overall wellness.

Hi, I’m Salvatore, a board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner with over five years of experience working in inpatient and outpatient mental health settings. I specialize in helping adults navigate anxiety, depression, mood disorders, and life stressors through thoughtful, individualized care. I believe mental health treatment should feel collaborative, respectful, and judgment-free. My goal is to help you feel heard, supported, and confident in your treatment plan.

I have been in the health care field for over 10 years. When working with individuals, I believe it’s important to take a humanistic approach and focus on what a client’s goals. Providing a safe non-judgement space is important in order to have a successful relationship. I like to meet individuals where they are and utilize a person-centered approach when discussing coping skills or creating goals for outside of the counseling session.

I first received my Master's in Guidance & Counseling in the 1990s from Hunter College in Manhattan and obtained an Advanced Certificate in Mental Health Counseling from the University at Buffalo. I have also been a practicing, licensed massage therapist for nearly 30 years. I have clinical experience providing empathic mental health care for individuals, couples, families, and groups and have treated anxiety, trauma, depression, personality and eating disorders, as well as other mental health concerns. I have also treated physical disease conditions and physical trauma with mind/body techniques. Each client is unique, and raising awareness of thoughts, emotions, and behaviors is the focus in working collaboratively and intentionally towards realistic solutions.

I am a board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner (PMHNP-BC) licensed in New York. I earned my Master of Science in Nursing from Saint John Fisher College.

Hello and Welcome. I'm so glad you are here.

We live in a world with multiple pressures and stressors, often having to navigate the expectations from others and those we put on ourselves. Many of us often feel stuck and overwhelmed by those pressures. You are not alone, and there is help.

We all have parts of ourselves that we want to work on, maybe an anxious part, a self-critical part, a part that can say mean things, or is highly reactive. All of your parts are welcome here in therapy.

I have18 years of psychotherapy experience with adults in the areas of mental health, stress management, and couples therapy.

I believe that the relationship between therapist and client is essential-the fit between us must work- I use a psychodynamic approach; helping clients learn more about themselves to understand what gets in the way of leading a meaningful life in their intimate, family relationships and in their career.

I have been practicing for over 30 years. I teach and supervise in an advanced training program for licensed mental health practitioners that I also help run.

I am a dedicated licensed clinical social worker, with over 15 years experience. I am focused on helping individuals lead a happier, healthier life. I take a warm, caring approach with clients and individualize care to each unique client.
