I utilize a multi-theoretical basis for all my clients. For my practice, trust, warmth and communication are the foundations of a good therapeutic relationship. I have a specialty in child/adolescent/family issues. However, I see many young adults who have issues feeling at ease and confident in their relationships and workplace. I endeavor to lift my clients out of the dark place that may be weighing them down to finding the solutions that will enable them to live freely.
My clients should know that I am reliable, easy to work with, detail-oriented, and dedicated to delivering high-quality results. I value honesty, clear communication, meeting deadlines, and prioritizing understanding their goals to ensure the outcome aligns with their needs. I always strive to make clients feel supported and confident throughout the process.

My professional background includes working in diverse settings such as outpatient community mental health clinics, psychiatric hospitals, and educational environments. I hold a Master of Social Work degree from SUNY Stony Brook and a post-graduate certificate from the NYU Silver School of Social Work.
I specialize in treating anxiety disorders and providing guidance during life transitions. My approach is compassionate, client-centered, and tailored to meet the unique needs of each individual I work with.

Hi, I’m Angela David, a Psychiatric Nurse Practitioner. I provide thoughtful, personalized mental health care focused on real, lasting change—not just symptom management.
I specialize in treating anxiety, depression, ADHD, trauma, and life transitions for teenagers, college students and adults. My approach combines medication management with practical therapy tools, so you leave sessions with strategies you can actually use in daily life.
Patients often come to me feeling overwhelmed, stuck, or burned out. Together, we work to understand patterns, build coping skills, and create a plan that feels manageable and effective.
I strive to create a space where you can be honest, feel understood, and make meaningful progress at your own pace. I take time to truly listen and understand your experiences, history, and goals. Together, we’ll determine whether medication, therapy, or a combination of both is right for you, and we’ll move at a pace that feels comfortable and manageable. Treatment is always personalized, with careful attention to effectiveness, side effects, and your overall well-being.
My approach is grounded in empathy, respect, and partnership. You are an active participant in your care, and your voice matters in every decision. I strive to create a safe, supportive space where you feel heard, valued, and empowered throughout your healing journey.
I’m honored to support you as we work toward greater balance, resilience, and emotional well-being. I look forward to meeting you and walking alongside you as you take this important step toward a healthier, more fulfilling life.

I am a Psychotherapist and Psychoanalyst with over 30 years of clinical, supervisory and administrative experience, licensed in the states of NY and NJ. I graduated from NYU School of Social Work with Master's Degree in Social Work, and NJ Institute for Psychoanalytic Studies with PsyA Degree. I provide individual therapy to adults and seniors, as well as I do consultations, coaching and clinical supervision.
We often underestimate past experiences' effect on our personality, self-image, and current relational patterns. Together, we will bridge gaps between the past and present and identify the patterns of behavior, coping, and interpersonal functioning that no longer serve you. My approach to therapy is non-judgmental, empathic, and candid, with humoristic relief.
I have over 30 years of experience as a licensed social worker and have been trained in most evidenced based practices over the years. I am also a trainer in therapeutic topics including stress management, mental health diagnoses such as depression/anxiety, suicide prevention and parenting challenging behaviors. I train the community and other professionals. My master's degree is in Social Work and my undergrad degree is in Psychology. I have worked with a team of behaviorists for several years and I am an expert in behavioral approaches including FBA (functional behavioral assessment), a rare combination for Social Workers! Most of my career has been on the mental health side, but over the last few years, I worked as an administrator in developmental disabilities. I can address co-occurring diagnoses such as Autism and mental health diagnoses. I believe that the client should set the pace and be involved in all aspects of treatment and that I work for you, the client.
Dare to Flourish: Your Journey to Healing Starts Here
Healing isn’t just about getting through the day; it’s about rediscovering the strength to grow into your most authentic self. I am dedicated to helping you navigate life’s most difficult transitions.
Whether you are seeking individual, family, or couples therapy, my goal is to provide a safe, compassionate space where you can process grief, strengthen relationships, and find your footing again. Together, we will work to move beyond just surviving—we will work so you can truly flourish.
As a bilingual clinician, I offer therapy in both English and Spanish, ensuring that language is never a barrier to expressing your deepest emotions or cultural nuances.
As your mental health provider here's what I want you to know about me:
I grew up in a family deeply rooted in the human services field—both of my parents dedicated their careers to helping others. Their compassion and commitment had a big influence on me, and it’s what ultimately shaped my own path. Before becoming a counselor, I spent several years working in law enforcement, where I gained a deep appreciation for the resilience and complexity of people’s lives. That experience inspired me to return to school and focus on helping others in a different way.
Hi, I’m Nikki — owner of Dragonfly Haven Wellness LCSW PLLC. I’m so glad you’re here.
I’m a licensed clinical social worker with a Master’s in Social Work from Fordham University, earned in 2003. Since then, I’ve had the privilege of supporting children, teens, adults, and families through life’s challenges in both outpatient and school-based mental health settings.
I believe therapy works best when you feel safe, supported, and genuinely understood. My approach is warm, collaborative, and tailored to your unique needs. I draw from a blend of psychodynamic therapy, relational approaches, CBT, DBT, motivational interviewing, and Encompass co-occurring treatment to help clients build insight, strengthen coping skills, and create meaningful change.
I’m also continuing to expand my training in integrative and somatic therapies, incorporating more body-based approaches alongside traditional talk therapy to support healing as a whole-person process.
Whether you’re navigating anxiety, depression, stress, relationship challenges, life transitions, or simply feeling stuck, you don’t have to do it alone. My goal is to create a space where you feel comfortable showing up exactly as you are.
