Let's Connect (518) 839-2347

I'm a licensed clinical psychologist with 15+ years in the field specializing in trauma, post-traumatic stress, and substance use / addiction issues. I have particular experience supporting healthcare providers (from physicians to combat medics to everyone in between and beyond), military veterans, survivors of political violence, and people with histories of childhood trauma. Clients who seek my help have often had unusual or extraordinary exposures to assault, war, genocide, partner violence, hate crime, abuse, neglect, or other significantly harmful stressors that have had a major impact on their lives.

I see clients as collaborators in the collective pursuit of individual and community mental wellness. I originally trained as a cognitive-behavior therapist, but my work has matured and expanded considerably beyond that over the years into psychoanalytic, sociological, and structural perspectives on health and human life.

I'm happy to tell you more about my practice and about myself. An online profile can only capture so much. If you're interested or curious, please email or call me and we'll schedule a brief, free phone consultation (usually about 10-15 minutes) to see if we're a mutual fit. I see clients in person (NY) and virtually (NY/MA). Reach out today!

Most people who seek my expertise and assistance are struggling with trauma or trauma-related problems that can include anxiety, depression, nightmares, relationship difficulties, and any number of other issues that can, in turn, impact any and every domain of life. I welcome clients with extreme, extraordinary, or unusual trauma histories. Equally, there is no trauma too "small" for my practice.

Dr. Bhagwat is highly experienced, skilled, and caring. If I were looking for a therapist, he is exactly the kind of psychologist I would want to go to see. He is deeply aware of how intersectional identity informs the work of therapy. I highly recommend.

I will always tailor psychotherapy to meet your needs. I typically start by evaluating your symptoms, learning about your life history, and providing a working treatment plan to chart out the first phase of our work. Very often, that first phase consists of some form of cognitive-behavior therapy for symptom relief. After that, if needed, our work will become more expansive and complex over time.
