What Families Experience
Family mental health needs rarely arrive one at a time. A child's anxiety reshapes the dinner table; a parent's depression changes the whole house; a teen's ADHD pulls everyone into the morning scramble. You might recognize some of these:
These are common, treatable patterns. Several point to conditions that show up across a household rather than in one person alone.
The short version
- When one person in a family is struggling, the strain often shows up in everyone, and several family members may benefit from care.
- Each patient works with one clinician for their medication and therapy, and we coordinate across family members so treatment decisions stay connected.
- We treat anxiety, ADHD, depression, and OCD in children, teens, and adults, and offer family therapy as a modality.
- Parents get progress updates backed by validated assessment tools, so decisions follow data rather than guesswork.
- Care is in-person at our Manhattan office, or by telehealth anywhere in New York State.
It tends to show up like this
You might recognize some of these.
- A child or teen navigating anxiety, ADHD, depression, OCD, or behavioral changes nobody has fully untangled.
- Therapy and medication run as separate tracks by separate providers, with partial results.
- One person's struggle is clearly affecting siblings, partners, or parents.
- You're the one holding the coordination together, relaying information between providers.
- Conflict, withdrawal, or tension at home that talking alone hasn't resolved.
- I want to understand what's happening clinically, not just be told to give it time.
Common Conditions We Treat in Families
These frequently co-occur. The Sigmund Assessment maps the full picture first, so the plan targets what's actually driving it, not the loudest symptom.
Anxiety
Anxiety is the condition most likely to ripple through a family. A child's avoidance can reorganize a household's routines, and anxious patterns often run in parents too. Evidence-based treatment, including CBT, works for children, teens, and adults. See our anxiety page.
ADHD
ADHD frequently runs in families and shows up as missed deadlines, lost items, and morning chaos that strains everyone. When a parent and child both have it, the household runs on the same unmanaged patterns. Accurate evaluation and targeted treatment change how the day functions. See our ADHD page.
Depression
Depression in a child or teen often reads as irritability, withdrawal, or slipping grades rather than sadness, and it pulls parents and siblings into worry. Early, accurate treatment changes that trajectory and eases the strain at home. See our depression page.
OCD
OCD often draws family members into accommodating rituals, which feels supportive but reinforces the cycle. Treatment includes the family in changing those patterns alongside the patient's own care. See our OCD page.
How We Care for Families
Every patient's care is informed by the Sigmund Assessment, a structured digital evaluation the clinician reviews before the first appointment. It maps each person's symptom history, what's worked and what hasn't, their biology, their environment, and the family's goals, so session one starts with a plan instead of paperwork.
For each family member, one clinician handles their care from the same chair: therapy, medication when it's indicated, and the lifestyle factors that shape it, including sleep, structure, and routines at home. There's no prescriber-and-therapist split per person. When more than one family member is in care, we coordinate across clinicians so the plans align, and we offer family therapy using family-systems and structural approaches when the work belongs in the room together. For partners, we also offer couples therapy.
Several clinicians focus on children and adolescents, including dual board-certified child psychiatrists. The practice houses clinicians affiliated with the National Institutes of Health, Columbia University, and New York-Presbyterian Hospital, and you can explore the research behind how we assess and treat. Care is available in person at our Manhattan office and by telehealth anywhere in New York State.
Assess
The Sigmund Assessment captures your symptoms, history, and goals before your first appointment, so your clinician already understands your case.
Match
We match each person on clinical fit, age, and presentation, with your read on your child part of the conversation from the start.
Treat
One clinician coordinates medication, therapy, and lifestyle care, including sleep, exercise, and daily structure, from the start.
Track
Progress is tracked with validated measures, so you can see what's changing rather than wonder.
Clinicians who work with families
Board-certified psychiatrists and psychiatric nurse practitioners. The practice houses clinicians affiliated with NIH, Columbia, and New York-Presbyterian.
What Our Patients Say
Insurance and Billing
Integrative Psych is an out-of-network practice. You pay at the time of service and receive a monthly superbill to submit to your insurer for potential out-of-network reimbursement. Many PPO plans reimburse a portion, and your insurer is the best source for what your plan covers. To check yours, call the number on your card and ask about out-of-network reimbursement for outpatient psychiatric evaluations, follow-up visits, and therapy.

Frequently Asked Questions
How do I know if my child needs a psychiatrist instead of a therapist?
If your child has worked with a therapist without meaningful progress, or if medication may be part of the picture, a clinician who does both is the natural next step. Our clinicians integrate therapy and medication in each patient's care, so you don't have to choose one path first and hope it's right.
Can you treat more than one person in our family?
Yes. Each family member works with their own clinician on their own plan, and we coordinate across those clinicians so the care stays connected. We also offer family therapy as a modality when the work belongs in the room together.
What ages do you treat?
Children, teens, and adults. Several clinicians focus on children and adolescents, including dual board-certified child psychiatrists, so each person is matched with someone whose training fits their age and presentation rather than whoever is available.
Will I be involved in my child's treatment?
Yes. Clinicians share treatment goals, progress updates, and guidance on what to watch for at home, with involvement calibrated to your child's age and clinical needs. For younger children parents are closely engaged; for older teens the balance shifts toward the patient while keeping you informed.
Where can I find family therapy near me in NYC?
Our office is at 80 8th Ave in Manhattan, where we offer family therapy and see families in person, and we offer telehealth anywhere in New York State. Sessions follow the same model in either format, and your clinician can advise which fits your child best.
How do I know if this is the right fit for my family?
If care has come one piece at a time without things connecting, an evaluation is a reasonable next step. The consultation helps you decide if we are the right practice to meet your needs.
Crisis Resources: We are not an emergency treatment clinic. If your child or a loved one is in crisis, call 911, call or text 988 (Suicide and Crisis Lifeline), or go to the nearest emergency room. Integrative Psych is an outpatient practice and is not equipped to provide crisis intervention.
Take the First Step
The consultation is a conversation about your family's situation and whether we're the right fit. It's not a commitment to treatment, and if it isn't the right practice, we'll tell you directly. Appointments are in person at our Manhattan office or by telehealth anywhere in New York State.
