You show up as capable and strong on the outside, but inside you’re exhausted, anxious, self-critical, numb out on social media or feel disconnected. High expectations, career demands or family roles weigh on you. Not to mention the unspoken pressures to always show up perfectly in spaces that overlook or misjudge Women of Color. Burnout creeps in, low mood lingers, perfectionism is exhausting, you cope with alcohol or overworking, and it's holding you back. You feel unseen by providers who don’t grasp your cultural context, or the systemic biases you navigate. You want care that validates your reality, and partners with you.

Hello there, my name is Erik Collins, I’m a Board Certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner; trained at Stony Brook University to integrate theory and evidence-based practice across a continuum of life stages. In a nutshell it means that I can prescribe medication or provide therapy that is up-to-date with the latest evidence available. My practice tends to lean more towards my prescriptive privileges versus talk therapy exclusively; however, to holistically manage your care I try to integrate both modalities to address your individualized needs.

Smithtown, NY 11787
I offer medication management as well as psychotherapy depending on a patient's needs.
I started my career as a nurse in a state-run psychiatric emergency room where I treated patients along the entire spectrum of psychiatric illnesses; many of whom were in the most emotionally vulnerable time in their lives. Having experienced this severity of psychiatric illnesses everyday allowed me to develop a level of expertise to quickly recognize symptoms and develop an accurate diagnosis so we can initiate the best treatment plan for you from the very beginning. I understand that those suffering with emotional pain cannot wait months for relief, and they shouldn't have to. I understand the need for rapid healing.

FAQ - Medication Management Psychiatrists
How can psychiatrists help with medication management?
What distinguishes psychiatrists from other mental health professionals is their medical training and ability to prescribe and manage psychiatric medications. Medication management encompasses the ongoing monitoring and adjustment of a client's medications—including types, dosages, and combinations—to ensure optimal treatment of clinical symptoms while minimizing adverse effects. Before prescribing medication, psychiatrists will typically conduct an evaluation that includes an assessment of the client's symptoms, medical history, and previous psychiatric diagnoses. Then, they will develop an individualized treatment plan that may include medication, if appropriate. Once medication is initiated, psychiatrists work closely with clients to monitor their response to the treatment and make necessary adjustments to ensure both safety and effectiveness.

What is the psychiatrist's approach to medication and overall treatment?
Most psychiatrists take a holistic approach to medication treatment, recognizing that medication alone is rarely most effective. They typically recommend that clients also engage in psychotherapy or counseling to address any underlying causes of their mental health challenges. Additionally, many psychiatrists collaborate with clients to implement lifestyle modifications that can significantly improve mental health outcomes, such as establishing a healthy sleep routine, developing better stress management techniques, incorporating regular exercise, and building healthy relationships.

How can I find a psychiatrist who specializes in medication management?
The Psychology Today directory is a useful tool to find psychiatrists who specialize in medication management. Using the search filters, clients can search for professionals with expertise in specific conditions, such as ADHD, anxiety, depression, substance use, or trauma. If desired, clients can also narrow their search to providers who share their identity, such as identifying as a specific gender or practicing a given religion. When speaking with potential psychiatrists, it can be helpful to ask about their specific expertise in treating your condition and inquire about their approach to medication and behavioral interventions in general. It is also important to determine whether their office is accessible (either close-by or via telehealth) and if they accept your insurance.
