Hi, I’m Dr. Laura Planche
board-certified psychiatrist & founder of VELORA PSYCHIATRY
Velora Psychiatry was founded to bring high-level medical expertise back to what matters most—you. I wanted to create a warm, safe space where you can feel entirely comfortable sharing your story. A place where you always feel respected, deeply valued, and truly cared for.
Because our New York community is beautifully diverse, I am proud to offer fully bilingual services to ensure this high standard of care is accessible and welcoming to Spanish-speaking individuals and families.
At Velora Psychiatry, you will be genuinely heard, understood, and supported. Together, we can build a clearer path forward.
