Angeliki Pesiridou
Psychiatrist, MD
I was born and raised in Athens, Greece and attended medical school in Italy. I completed my psychiatric residency at St. Luke's Roosevelt hospital in New York. Initially I worked as an outpatient psychiatrist at Crozer Chester medical center in Philadelphia where I gained experience with patients with chronic and severe mental illness and substance use disorders. I also worked at Callen Lorde Community Health Center in New York. I have extensive experience working with the LGBTQ population, and I am able to conduct evaluations and write letters for gender marker changes, hormones, and surgical procedures.
My approach is behavioral by training and I am certified in DBT and proficient in CBT and short-term dynamic psychotherapy with special attention to affirmation of sexual orientation and gender identity. I integrate medication management with the above therapies.
In addition, I work with patients experiencing immigration trauma and difficulty adjusting to life in a new country. I am fluent in English, Greek, Italian, and Spanish. I provide both medication management and psychotherapy in any of these languages.
