Sarah Chatt

Psychologist

Virtual • New York


If something has felt off for a while, you're not imagining it — and you don't have to keep pushing through alone.

Maybe it's work stress, a relationship that's wearing on you, or just the relentless pace of life in New York. Whatever brought you here, I want you to know: what you're feeling makes sense, and things can genuinely get better.

I'm Sarah, a licensed psychologist with a Psy.D. from Spalding University. I specialize in anxiety and depression, and I've worked across hospitals, correctional settings, and private practice — experiences that gave me a deep respect for how differently people cope, survive, and heal. I don't believe in a one-size-fits-all approach, and I won't treat you like a checklist.

Psychiatric Mental Health NP

Virtual • Port Jefferson Station, NY


Hi, I’m Arelys! I’m a board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner (PMHNP-BC) with over 15 years of nursing experience. Throughout my career, I’ve had the privilege of caring for people from all walks of life, across different ages, cultures, backgrounds, and circumstances. Those experiences have shaped the way I approach mental health care: with curiosity, compassion, and an understanding that there is always more to a person than what brings them into the room.

I work with adolescents, college students, and adults experiencing anxiety, depression, ADHD, mood disorders, and the challenges and transitions that life can bring.

I chose to specialize in mental health because I believe meaningful care begins with truly getting to know the person in front of me. Your symptoms matter, but so do the experiences, relationships, stressors, strengths, and circumstances that shape them. I want our time together to be a space where you feel comfortable being honest, where your concerns are heard, and where you never feel like you have to fit into a one-size-fits-all approach.

My goal is to build a genuine, collaborative relationship and create a treatment plan that makes sense for you—one that supports not only symptom improvement, but your ability to feel more like yourself and move forward with confidence.
