Michael Nakhla
Psychiatrist, MD
I am a board-certified adult psychiatrist and psychotherapist. I serve in leadership and teaching roles at NYU, where I teach the next generation of psychiatrists and work at the intersection of college mental health and academic medicine. My practice focuses on high-achieving professionals and students navigating mood and anxiety disorders, ADHD, perfectionism, and identity development. I created my private practice space, The Light Room, to be decidedly different from traditional psychiatric practices — care that's evidence-based yet deeply human, personalized, accessible, and responsive.
I specialize in integrating psychotherapy with medication management to offer a truly comprehensive treatment approach.

Life often presents us with struggles that feel insurmountable, but through our work, we have come to understand that there is always a silver lining waiting to be found.Our passion lies in fighting the stigma of mental health by providing a space where vulnerability is not just welcomed, but honored.

Using evidence-based approaches tailored specifically to your unique story, we will work together to facilitate emotional regulation and overall wellness.You don’t have to carry the burden of life’s transitions alone. We are committed to helping you gain the insight and coping skills needed to not only survive the challenges you face but to thrive through them.

Allaire Ross
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
My name is Allaire Ross, I often work with individuals who feel stuck in cycles of anxiety, self-doubt, depression, or relationship difficulties. My approach integrates CBT with an attachment-focused lens to help you understand the patterns—both behavioral and relational—that may be keeping you stuck. Together, we’ll explore these patterns with warmth, curiosity, and a bit of humor, while building practical skills you can use in your daily life. Drawing from CBT, DBT, and somatic mindfulness practices, I aim to help you create a tangible toolbox for emotional regulation, clearer thinking, and stronger relationships. The goal isn’t just insight—it’s meaningful, lasting change that extends well beyond the therapy room.

Louise Perry
Registered Psychotherapist, IFS UKCP HCCP BAAT
I work as an integrative art psychotherapist and IFS practitioner, offering a thoughtful and collaborative way of working. Therapy with me doesn’t need to involve art unless it feels useful; some sessions focus on conversation, while others may use images, objects, or simple creative materials to explore experiences that are difficult to put into words.
Before training as a psychotherapist, I spent many years working in design and technology. That background continues to shape how I work – I’m interested in patterns, systems, and how different parts interact, both internally and in our wider lives. My decision to retrain grew out of lived experience as well as professional curiosity, and I bring both into the therapy room.
I work in an engaged, grounded way, staying close to what matters and adjusting pace as needed. Clients often come to me when they want to understand themselves more clearly, work with complexity rather than bypass it, and make changes that feel considered and sustainable.

MERLYN HURD PHD QEEG D
Psychologist, PHD; QEEG D BCB, BCN
As a psychologist and neurotherapist for 30 years plus, I have worked with many clients with serious brain disorders and have been successful in assisting them in achieving good mental health. Each client is unique as well as their brains are unique and when the issues are pinpointed the journey to health can be achieved. I conduct a brain map analysis to pinpoint the dysregulations that are impeding the client and then construct protocols to address the issues. Clients have often commented that the work with myself and associates has provided them with quicker and more long lasting relief than many years of just talk therapy.
The best way to reach our office for questions or to schedule an appointment is via email rather than calling. Please email merlynh@nyneurofeedback.com
