Therapy in East Hampton, NY — Same-Week Appointments, Major Insurance Accepted

By Happy Pro, Counseling Team · May 2, 2026 · 2 min read

Therapy serving East Hampton, Amagansett, Springs, and Wainscott

East Hampton’s mental health access mirrors the rest of the East End: more demand than supply, particularly in summer. Year-round residents find practices booked out for weeks; seasonal residents face the same plus the friction of finding a therapist who can continue care when you head back to the city.

Happy Pro Counseling is based in Southampton, about 25 minutes west of East Hampton village, and offers same-week intake. For East Hampton patients we typically recommend a telehealth default with in-person sessions in Southampton when convenient.

What we treat

Adults, teens, and kids across:

  • Anxiety, panic, and phobias
  • Depression and mood concerns
  • Trauma and PTSD
  • Grief and loss
  • Couples and family therapy
  • ADHD support and coaching
  • School anxiety, school refusal
  • Burnout and stress

We refer out for active eating disorders, severe psychiatric conditions requiring inpatient stabilization, and children under 5.

Insurance we accept

In-network with:

  • Aetna
  • Cigna
  • UnitedHealthcare
  • Oxford
  • Northwell Direct

Typical copay is $20-$40 per session. We verify before your first session.

Why East Hampton patients work well with our model

Year-round + seasonal residents both fit. Our New York State licensure means we can see you wherever you are within the state — East End in summer, Manhattan or Brooklyn in winter, no need to switch therapists.

Same-week intake. Most East End practices quote 6+ weeks.

Telehealth-default option. A 25-minute drive in summer traffic can become 60+ minutes. Telehealth removes that.

Trauma specialty. Evidence-based care for PTSD, single-event trauma, and anxiety with identifiable triggers.

Telehealth across New York State

If you split time between East Hampton and the city — or work in the city most weekdays — our telehealth availability covers you wherever you are within New York. Switching to in-person at our Southampton office for occasional sessions is fine.

East Hampton FAQ

Q: How far is the drive from East Hampton to your Southampton office? A: About 25 minutes west on Montauk Highway. Longer in summer traffic — most patients default to telehealth.

Q: I split time between the city and East Hampton — can you continue treating me when I’m not on the East End? A: Yes, as long as you’re in New York State during the session. Our New York licensure covers all 62 counties.

Q: Do you treat Montauk residents? A: Yes. Telehealth works particularly well for Montauk given the drive.

Q: Do you have summer-only availability? A: We’re staffed year-round at the same intake capacity. No seasonal scaling.

Q: What about sliding scale or out-of-network options? A: Call us with your specific situation — we usually have a workaround.
