Start or continue your healing journey with one of our licensed psychiatrists. Psychiatrists can evaluate your need for psychiatric medication, and counsel you as to alternatives to medication. If you decide on a trial of medication for you or your child, your psychiatrist will set up follow-up appointments to manage your medication, determining the correct doses, or combination of medications that are best for you. They will closely monitor your progress and changing needs, and help you manage any side effects that might arise.
We provide in-person care at our Midtown Manhattan location (40th and Broadway) and offer telehealth for patients throughout New York State. Whether you or your child need assistance with anxiety, depression, OCD, ADHD, or complex trauma, among other issues, you can turn to our team to help you manage and decrease debilitating symptoms, improve overall functioning and increase engagement to become a healthier version of yourself or help your child to flourish and fully participate in their world.
