Dr. Barbra Lesh is a Yale trained psychiatrist practicing in the WNY/Buffalo area and the owner of Sterling Psychiatry. Her practice is accepting new patients for both tele-health and in-person appointments. The office motto is: mental health IS health. We are best suited to help people who are actively engaged in their treatment process, attend appointments regularly, and show a willingness to explore their thoughts and behaviors. We offer medication management with or without additional therapy.
We understand that effective treatment goes beyond symptom management and we practice caring for the entire person. Our holistic approach considers not only a person's mental health symptoms but also their physical health, emotional well-being, social connections, cultural background, and life circumstances.
You are not alone in this journey. You deserve support and we are here to help.
