Fredrickson Lauralyn G MD

Psychiatry doesn’t have to feel distant. Fredrickson Lauralyn G MD offers a private practice right where the Upper West Side’s tree-lined sidewalks meet the hum of 86th Street. You’ll find the office at 5 W 86th St #1B, New York, NY 10024, tucked between the brownstones and the corner bodega—easy to reach whether you’re coming from Central Park or the subway.

Adults dealing with mood swings, anxiety, or life transitions often look for a clinician who blends evidence-based care with a practical approach. Sessions here cover everything from medication management to talk therapy, and the focus stays on what each person actually needs rather than a one-size-fits-all plan. The neighborhood itself is full of quiet cafés and bookshops, so you can grab a coffee or flip through a novel before or after your appointment.

For directions, pull up the map and plug in your starting point; the building is the kind where you’ll double-check the buzzer before heading up. If you’ve ever walked this stretch of 86th, you already know how simple it is to get here.
