    We treat mild to moderate behavioral and mental health concerns, including anxiety, ADHD, behavioral challenges, depression, grief/loss, trauma, and PTSD, and support for those going through family stress and life transitions. Currently, we do not provide evaluations for Autism Spectrum Disorder.

    We provide individual and group therapy, psychiatry services, medication management (to ensure safe, effective treatment), and parent coaching. We also offer written ADHD evaluations and Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) groups, a skills-based therapy for teens and young adults managing strong emotions or impulsive behaviors.

    Our mental health services are built on the collaborative care model and we’re happy to coordinate with other providers to ensure your family gets the best care possible.

    Our psychopharmacology team provides medication evaluations and medication management when needed. Our experienced child and adolescent psychiatrists and medication providers will create a personalized plan for your family’s needs, and collaborate with your therapy team and other medical providers to support the whole-health care of your family.

    We strive to deliver evidence-based mental health care in a timely, convenient way, and at this time we do not have a waitlist. Visit our website  or call our care coordinators directly at 516-738-5600 to schedule your appointment.

    Choosing the provider that’s right for your family depends on what your child is experiencing. If your child needs support working through emotions, behaviors, or life challenges, starting with a pediatric therapist or psychologist is often a great first step. If you’re considering medication or wondering whether it might help, a psychiatrist can evaluate and guide that part of care. At PM Mental Health, we work as a team — so we’ll help you figure out the right starting point and connect you to the best provider for your child’s needs.
