Behavioral Health treatment for you and your family

  • As nationally recognized pediatric experts, we know there’s nothing more urgent than the mental health of today’s youth.
  • Licensed pediatric mental health specialists provide compassionate, evidence-based care through close collaboration with your family, pediatrician, and school; if needed.
  • Convenient and customized virtual therapy or in-person sessions (in our Cobble Hill (Brooklyn), Manhasset, or North Babylon locations) ensure you/your child feels comfortable and safe, while fitting your family’s unique needs and schedule.

How we can help

Our team of child and young adult therapists, psychologists, psychiatrists, and pediatricians are trained to address a wide range of behavioral health concerns for children and young adults (ages 5-26) including, but not limited to:

  • School and social anxiety
  • Depression
  • ADHD and behavioral disorders
  • Family stress
  • Grief, loss, and trauma
  • PTSD (Post-traumatic Stress Disorder)
  • ODD (Oppositional-Defiant Disorder)
  • Gender dysphoria

When you are ready to get started, your first step is to schedule an introductory appointment with a team member on a telehealth platform that you and your child will join together. We’ll discuss you/your family’s needs and therapy preferences, and connect you with a provider who best suits the needs of you/your family.
