My broad education - medical school at Case, cultural psychiatry at Harvard, residency training at Yale - has helped me understand that people need help throughout life. I treat adults ages 18 and over with a wide range of problems, including anxiety and depression. I can work with you to make sense of tough transitions like grief, relationship issues, balancing family roles, divorce, not meeting expectations at work or school, and medical illnesses. As former advisor to Yale's University Chaplain, I know how people who are suffering search for hope. I teach and supervise psychotherapy at Columbia where I am a full professor.
At Columbia University, I research medical communication across cultural, ethnic, racial, sexual. and gender divides. In my patient-centered approach, you are the expert on your life and I can help find solutions with evidence-based ways: medications, supportive psychotherapy, motivational interviewing, cognitive behavioral therapy, or psychodynamic therapy.
I will provide you with sensitive, effective care so you get the most out of life. I specialize in cross-cultural factors of identity, illness, and treatment. I work with patients of any background, race, ethnicity, religion, belief system, or sexual orientation. Visit my website at www.neilkaggarwal.com for more details. Feel free to contact me.
