Resilience and hope
While Dr. Manalai specializes in severe and treatment-resistant illness, he has also found great meaning in helping high-achieving professionals—including college and graduate students, physicians, lawyers, and public figures—navigate the unique challenges they face. One patient, during a difficult winter, left him this poem:
"Within the prism
of the snow
a blade of grass
began to grow—
simmering lights
to still the green,
walls of brown
to it unseen."
Beneath the poem, the patient added:
"Thank you for being a blade of grass for me to step on, to propel me into the new." His approach blends evidence-based psychopharmacology with psychodynamic therapy, CBT, and DBT. He also utilizes cutting-edge treatments such as ketamine, esketamine, TMS, and ECT when appropriate, and completed specialized training in Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (TMS) at Harvard University and Electroconvulsive Therapy (ECT) at Duke University.
Dr. Manalai offers in-person visits in McLean as well as virtual appointments, and provides both ongoing psychotherapy and medication management for adults. Over time, patients often experience his care as a steady, consistent source of support—one that helps them feel more understood, more empowered, and more hopeful about the road ahead.
