HELPING YOU FEEL LIKE YOU AGAIN
Whole-person care that blends medication, therapy, and lifestyle so you can feel clear, grounded, and more like you.
Where Brain, Mind, And Body Meet
Rooted in science and centered on you.
We bring brain, mind, and body together so healing actually lasts.
Our Integrative Approach
We’re a small, collaborative team of psychiatrists and therapists based in Manhattan, united by a shared belief: you deserve mental health care that actually feels human. We come from different training backgrounds, but we work closely together: consulting, coordinating, and thinking as a team, so you don’t feel like you’re navigating your care alone. Some of us focus more on medication management, others on therapy, others on lifestyle and nervous system support, but we’re all here for the same reason: to help you feel more like yourself in your daily life.

How We Treat
At Manhattan Integrative Psychiatry, we look at your mental health through three connected lenses: brain, mind, and body. Instead of focusing on just one piece, we start with a comprehensive evaluation and then build a plan that supports all three so you’re cared for from every angle.
Our Integrative Model: Brain · Mind · Body
-
We make sure your brain chemistry and overall medical picture are carefully evaluated.
With one of our medical providers, we:Review your full medical and psychiatric history
Consider lab work or other testing when appropriate
Explore medication options in a thoughtful, collaborative way
Monitor how your brain and body respond over time
The goal is to make sure nothing is missed medically, and that any treatment we choose is safe, targeted, and aligned with your values.
Brain
-
Your thoughts, emotions, and past experiences matter just as much as your biology.
Through psychotherapy, we help you:Understand patterns that keep you stuck
Explore anxiety, low mood, burnout, or relationship struggles
Work through emotional blocks, self-criticism, or fears.
Build skills for regulation, resilience, and self-compassion.
This is where we make space for your story what you’ve been through, how you’ve coped, and what you want life to feel like instead.
Mind
-
For those who are interested, we bring in integrative nutrition and lifestyle support to help your body feel like a place you can live in comfortably.
With our integrative nutritionist, you may:
Explore how sleep, movement, and daily habits affect your mood.
Look at blood sugar, energy, and gut–brain connections.
Make gentle, realistic changes to eating patterns and routines.
Learn how to support your nervous system through lifestyle.
Body
-
Together, we:
Review your medical, psychiatric, and family history.
Talk through your current symptoms, stressors, and goals.
Look at what you’ve already tried and how it’s felt.
Identify which parts of the brain–mind–body model are most important to focus on first.
From there, we design a personalized plan that may include medication management, therapy, nutritional support, or a combination of all three.
It Starts With a Comprehensive Evaluation
Collaborative Care, Not Siloed Care
You shouldn’t have to be the one coordinating everything.
With your consent, our clinicians communicate with each other psychiatrists, therapists, and integrative nutrition providers:
Share updates and insights
Align on goals and next steps
Adjust the plan together as you grow and change
The result is care that feels cohesive, connected, and truly integrative so you’re supported as a whole person, not a collection of separate appointments.
