About Dr. Wilmarie Cidre Serrano:

I am a Harvard and Stanford trained general adult psychiatrist and psychotherapist licensed in New York and California. My approach to patient care is collaborative, warm and empathic. I believe it takes courage to pause and make the time to uncover what’s hurting or what's not working anymore. It would be an honor for me to accompany you as you find the words to articulate your experiences and assist you in finding your path towards wellness, balance, and vitality.

My Approach

Above all, I bring a human, warm, understanding and non-judgmental approach to care. I believe that psychological suffering is multifactorial. During our time together, we will explore the individual-level biological and psychological factors affecting your life, as well as the cultural and systemic factors that may be influencing your emotional well-being. I partner with my patients to augment their wellbeing, self-understanding, fulfillment, motivation and personal effectiveness. I provide both medication management and psychotherapy sessions.
