Nathilee Caldeira, Ph.D.

Whether you're dealing with anxiety at work, going through a major life change, processing trauma, or wondering if ADHD might explain patterns you've had for years, you deserve support that meets you where you truly are, not where someone thinks you should be.

Dr. Caldeira founded Let's Talk Psychological Wellness, P.C. with a clear purpose: to create a space where people can build the confidence, clarity, and relationships they want — without stigma, a six-week waitlist, or having to leave pieces of themselves at the door.

As an immigrant from Guyana, Dr. Caldeira has a personal understanding of the challenges of navigating identity, belonging, and cross-cultural connections. This experience shapes her clinical work in ways no textbook can match. She works with a diverse group of adults, including professionals in leadership roles, early-career individuals finding their way, and college and graduate students navigating the pressures of becoming. She also works with couples at every stage, from premarital to long-term relationships.

Her approach is strength-based, solution-focused, and trauma-focused. Sessions blend compassionate exploration of underlying issues with practical, evidence-based tools you can use. She draws on CBT, DBT, ACT, and psychodynamic therapy and uses brief, validated measures, including GAD-7, PHQ-9, and ACEs, to track progress and keep care centered on what matters to you. Cultural competence isn't just a feature here; it’s the foundation.

Dr. Caldeira also specializes in psychological testing and assessments, particularly for adult ADHD. If you've been told for years to just try harder, a clear, thorough evaluation could be your turning point.

Let's Talk is a group practice with 14 clinicians offering individual, couples, and group therapy, psychological and ADHD testing, and small-group therapy in Midtown Manhattan, as well as secure telehealth services across New York, New Jersey, and Florida. Same-week screenings are available, with early-morning, evening, and weekend appointments. Care is offered in English, Español, and Hindi.

Before founding Let's Talk, Dr. Caldeira served as a clinical psychologist and research scientist at Columbia University Medical Center, the New York State Psychiatric Institute, NYU School of Medicine, Beth Israel Medical Center, St. Luke's Roosevelt Hospital Center, and Martin Army Hospital.
