So many people struggle with mental health issues or chemical dependency but are afraid to seek help. Here’s the truth — there is no shame in finding the care you need. In fact, it’s one of the bravest things you can do. Better mental health is a process, and there is no shame in working with an expert who can guide you through that journey. Our practice employs a holistic approach to care for people struggling with addiction, anxiety, insomnia, inattention, fatigue, low mood, stress, and depression.

I have expert knowledge of evaluation, medication treatment and psychotherapy. My approach is to listen carefully, understand your particular needs then tailor customized treatments. For those already in psychotherapy or not having that need, I am happy to provide medication treatment alone. I will monitor your responses to medication carefully so that you do not experience side effects and to see your gains are maximized. I practice an interpersonal form of psychotherapy. In this, interaction is encouraged rather than listening alone. I try to make myself available for your questions and return calls within a day. Appointments are available usually within one week.

I am an adult psychiatrist with many years of experience. After working in inpatient, outpatient, and partial hospitalization programs for almost 15 years, I have chosen to focus on my private practice, where I can make a personal difference in the lives of my patients. I do not believe in medication-only treatment. I feel that each of my patients has very unique issues and problems, and needs to be treated as an individual, without one-size-fits-all solutions. I focus on getting to know my patients and creating an individualized treatment plan.

Hi, I'm Christina Hollingsworth and I'm a board certified, Psychiatric Nurse Practitioner (PMHNP) working in New York City. From my training at Columbia University to my years of practice in both outpatient and inpatient settings, I have worked with many patients from all walks of life. I primarily offer medication management, but strongly believe in the importance of supportive therapy and the behavioral changes that a person can engage in to live a happy and healthy life. It's important for me to collaborate with all of my patients to create a comprehensive treatment plan that works for your individual needs and unique goals.

I am a board certified psychiatric nurse practitioner. I provide a holistic approach to ensuring your highest-quality care and safety. I prescribe medication and lifestyle changes in the context of a therapeutic relationship to support both biochemical and psychosocial interventions in support of your personal treatment goals. I treat children and adults of all ages seeking to support their wellness in a variety of ways including strengthening academic and work performance, improving interpersonal relationships, and decreasing debilitating anxiety, sleep and mood disturbances.

I have a deep interest in assisting my clients to achieve their potential and helping them to lead a healthier life. My approach is an integrative style of therapeutic work that is intended to help you reach your goals through self-exploration and psychological growth.

Have no fear. Come and talk to me about anything that's on your mind. You won't be judged, ignored or misunderstood. I will take time to make you feel comfortable, establish a connection and get to know you better. Together we will explore all aspects of your present life and your history, analyze all contributing factors, including medical, psychological, social and spiritual. We will build a plan which might include psychotherapy, psychopharmacology, genetic testing, vitamins and supplements, nutrition or lifestyle changes. We'll take one step at a time at a pace you are comfortable with.

Do you find it difficult to manage stress, or do you struggle with depression or anxiety (including OCD & panic attacks), PTSD, alcohol or other substance abuse challenges? Working together, I can provide you with a comprehensive evaluation and suggestions for going forward. In many cases, Motivational Interviewing and other types of psychotherapy can deliver substantial improvements. Based on your needs, we will map a treatment plan that includes therapy, or a blend of therapy and medication. If you are already in psychotherapy and need medication management, your therapist and I will cooperate to deliver the best results possible.

Glad you are here. Reaching out for help can take a lot of courage. Together, we will set goals, build resiliency, and assess patterns and barriers to achieving those goals. I work with each person to determine what well-being looks like in the context of their life and goals.

Thank you for your interest in the practice. Let's see if we would be a good fit for you... (Please be advised that at this time all spots for Oxford and UMR are FULL.) Dr Salzer's clients say she is warm, empathic, collaborative and makes them feel heard and cared about. But most importantly they know they are in good hands and that helps is on the way. We use an integrated approach incorporating several modalities of psychotherapy +/- evidence based psychopharmacology. Many of our clients are seen for therapy alone and are not treated with medications.

Creative people can end distress-without losing creativity! I start with a comprehensive evaluation and "differential diagnosis." I customize treatment to your needs, combining natural techniques, psychopharmacology, brief CBT, arts-based or horticulture therapy, collaboration with other therapists, as needed. We review current concerns, medical, cultural, family, interpersonal, educational, vocational and substance histories, before identifying helpful-or harmful--past treatments, avoiding whatever harmed. I recognize "medical mimics" of mental symptoms, and medication side effects—and recommend natural solutions whenever possible.

Most of the patients who have worked with me over the years have a variety of different mental health issues. These include depression, anxiety and substance dependence. However, in psychiatry, there are many other mental health matters which need to be diagnosed and carefully treated. I feel very capable and prepared given my years of experience to work with patients who have these conditions as well.

Psychiatry is as much a science as an art, and listening carefully to my patients is key. As a teaching psychiatrist at Mount Sinai Beth Israel and assistant clinical professor of psychiatry in the Mount Sinai Icahn School of Medicine, I treat a wide range of problems including Anxiety, Depression, Sleep issues, Bipolar Disorder, Adult ADHD, Addiction, OCD, Trauma, Family issues, and Stress Management issues. Sometimes medication is not the answer. I do psychotherapy in addition to medication, but I also collaborate with a large network of outside therapists to help you find the best fit for your needs.
