FAQs

We offer virtual visits and in-person appointments, based on your preferences and provider availability. All in-person appointments are scheduled at our warm and welcoming space in New York City. We’re here to support you on your mental health journey–wherever that unfolds.

Psychiatrists are medical doctors who can conduct a comprehensive diagnostic evaluation, develop a care plan for you and prescribe medications according to your unique needs. Our psychiatrists at Being Health are also trained in psychotherapy so you can be assured that during your visit, you may discuss all of the factors that contribute to your mental health outside of only discussing symptom management.

Psychotherapists on the other hand are licensed mental health providers who can provide psychotherapy but they are not medical doctors and can not prescribe medications. Psychotherapy can be provided by a series of different licensed clinicians at Being Health including Psychologists, Licensed Clinical Social Workers and Licensed Mental Health Counselors.

We treat anxiety, depression, stress and trauma, which includes clinical diagnoses of:

Anxiety

  • Generalized Anxiety Disorder (GAD)
  • Obsessive Compulsive Disorder (OCD)
  • Panic Disorder
  • Peri and Postpartum Anxiety (PPA)
  • Social Anxiety Disorder
  • Specific Phobias

Depression

  • Major Depressive Disorder (MDD)
  • Treatment Resistant Depression (TRD)
  • Peri and Postpartum Depression

Trauma

  • Acute Stress Disorder & Trauma
  • Relational Trauma
  • PTSD & Complex PTSD

Stress

  • Adjustment Disorders
  • Burnout
  • Significant Life Transitions
  • Stress & Stress Management

Providers at Being Health work within the framework of lifestyle medicine and are continuously collaborating with other clinicians in our integrated care rounds, with the goal of optimizing outcomes for patients. As part of our mind body focus, a free 60-minute nutritional assessment is integrated into our model of care at no cost to all patients for their first psychiatry, psychotherapy or ketamine consultation. Patients also benefit from the ease of trying different treatment modalities offered at Being Health or taking a deeper dive with advanced diagnostics, all under the same roof.

We are not currently in network with any private insurance providers, Medicaid or Medicare, but we are working on it. If you have out-of-network benefits, we are happy to submit a superbill on your behalf to seek reimbursement. We recommend calling your insurance provider prior to your appointment to get detailed information on your individual coverage.

We accept Health Savings Accounts (HSAs), Flexible Spending Accounts (FSAs), as well as American Express, MasterCard, Visa and Discover. Additionally, we have partnered with Advance Care Card and CareCredit to offer financing for those who qualify. For in-person services, we are able to accept cash payments.
