Psychiatrists in New York, NY

As a psychiatrist with advanced training in psychodynamic psychotherapy I bring a wealth of experience working with people from various cultures, backgrounds and sensitivities. Through collaborative efforts, I can help you identify the roots of your struggles and develop alternative ways of relating. If needed, I can also prescribe medications carefully.

Do you feel overwhelmed, experience worry, self-doubt or low-mood that is hard to shake? I work with individuals often at a cross-roads in love, work, and personal goals.

I use techniques rooted in cognitive behavioral talk therapy, mindfulness, couples work and if/when necessary, medications.

I am dual board certified child, adolescent and adult psychiatrist. People come to treatment for all sorts of reasons — ADHD, anxiety, depression, difficulty functioning at work or school, family conflict, challenges in relationships, low self-esteem, or simply a desire to learn more about themselves. As a psychiatrist with expertise in both medication management and psychotherapy, I can help patients develop a treatment plan that meets their needs. My style is guided by warmth and flexibility, with the goals of helping patients build insight and reduce symptoms.
