in-person but can also do via phone
I have been in private practice since 1985. I am a general adult psychiatrist and see those age 13 and older. I am one of the "dinosaurs" who still do psychotherapy as well as medication. I see individuals, couples, and families. Although the majority of my patients see me for mood disorders and anxiety, I have had a special interest in eating disorders since training. My practice has solely been outpatient for many years, thus inpatient care would have to be transferred temporarily to another physician. (note: I am an out-of-network provider; fees range from $140-320, depending on service, see below.)

When it comes to mental health treatment, our approach is simple and unique: our accomplished team of physicians and therapists work together to diagnose and treat your body, mind and spirit as a whole. We are one of the few practices combining traditional treatment with evidence-based alternative therapies, all under one roof.

We search for root causes and provide the most appropriate treatment, not merely the most convenient one. When we do prescribe, we go the extra mile to customize a plan that minimizes side effects. You and your family deserve the best in healthcare!

You're doing everything you're supposed to do — working, showing up, holding it together — and it still feels harder than it should. Maybe it's anxiety that won't quiet down, a low mood that's overstayed its welcome, or a lifetime of "why can't I just focus?" that finally deserves a real answer. Or maybe it's not you — it's your child, and you've hit waitlist after waitlist trying to get them help. You want a provider who listens, explains, and includes you in every decision — not a rushed 10-minute appointment.

FAQ - In Person Psychiatrists
What are the advantages of in-person psychiatry?
Psychiatrists are trained to diagnose and treat a wide range of mental health conditions, often using a combination of therapy and medication. For many individuals, working with a psychiatrist who offers accessible and consistent in-person care is an important part of building a strong and effective therapeutic relationship. While remote care has become more widely available, in-person psychiatry offers several unique advantages. Face-to-face sessions can help foster a deeper sense of connection and trust, particularly during the early stages of treatment. In-person visits may also be more appropriate for young children, individuals who benefit from a structured clinical environment, or those with complex mental health needs requiring close observation and coordination of care. Many patients also find that meeting in a dedicated office space—free from the distractions of home—helps them stay focused and engaged during sessions.
How can I find a psychiatrist who offers in-person services?
Psychology Today's online directory is a valuable resource for finding psychiatrists (MDs) and psychiatric nurse practitioners (PMHNPs) who provide in-person services. As you explore your options, consider each provider's clinical expertise, therapeutic style, and office location to ensure their services are a good fit and easily accessible for you.
