Brightline Brings Mental Health Support to More New York Families with New Manhattan Clinic

Clinic will offer affordable, evidence-based services in person and virtually

NEW YORK--(BUSINESS WIRE)--To meet the increasing demand for accessible, high-quality mental health support for children and families, Brightline today announced the opening of its third in-person clinic at 330 W 58th St, Suite 611, near Columbus Circle in Manhattan. Since launching its flagship clinic in Brooklyn earlier this year, Brightline has seen surging demand for evidence-based mental health services and psychological testing for children and teens.

Since its founding in 2019, Brightline has served hundreds of thousands of children. The company has grown from a virtual-first practice to the leading pediatric mental health solution for kids, teens, and their parents. The company offers a flexible, hybrid care model that combines in-person and virtual care support. Brightline’s team of therapists, psychologists and psychiatrists provides measurable, outcomes-based care, including psychological testing and advanced treatment for complex mental health needs.

In addition to its clinics in Manhattan, Brooklyn and Long Island, Brightline recently announced a strategic partnership with Northwell Health, New York’s largest healthcare provider and private employer. These clinic expansions and partnerships mean more children and families can access affordable, flexible, in-network support and a wider range of mental health treatments.

“Our third clinic opening, along with our partnerships with leaders like Northwell Health and health plans, lets us reach even more families in New York in a flexible way that meets their needs,” said Brightline CEO and Co-founder Naomi Allen. “Access to affordable, quality pediatric mental health care remains one of the biggest challenges facing many families today. Our mission is to break down these barriers.”

Brightline clinics bring together a collaborative team of pediatric therapists, psychologists, and psychiatrists experienced in a full spectrum of behavioral and mental health needs. Brightline provides:

• Comprehensive, in-person psychological testing for autism, learning disorders, executive functioning, school readiness, giftedness, and more;
• Services for children with more common, generalized concerns, including depression and trauma, and therapy, psychiatry, and medication management, as needed;
• Focused programs with the capability to test, diagnose, and treat higher acuity concerns for anxiety, Obsessive Compulsive Disorder (OCD), Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD), and behavior disorders;
• Support for parents who are carrying the weight of what their kids are going through, providing them with the tools they need to manage their concerns in healthy ways;
• Parent-centered care plans that are clinically informed and based on the child’s age and stage, and the presenting concerns; and
• Family-centered care plans that provide each family with a personalized care roadmap and a care team that coordinates closely with the child’s pediatrician to align physical and mental health support.
