Addiction therapists & psychiatrists in New York

Hello and welcome to PSYCHIATRY SERVICES at my HEALTH AND WELLNESS professional office!

As a General (Adult) and Child/Adolescent Psychiatrist, I am passionate about empowering all ages on their journey towards mental health and well-being.

I completed a residency in General Psychiatry and fellowship in Child & Adolescent Psychiatry at Georgia's prestigious medical college, one of the oldest medical schools in the nation. This expert, specialized training has equipped me with the skills and knowledge to understand the unique psychological needs of children, adolescents, and adults.

I am a Board Certified Psychiatrist, and am also a Board Certified Pediatrician (triple-trained in General Pediatrics, General Psych, and Child/Adolescent Psych). I completed pediatrics residency at NYC’s only academic Children’s Hospital in Brooklyn, SUNY Downstate. Additionally, I graduated with a Master of Public Health with an Advanced Graduate Certificate in Health Communications from renowned Stony Brook University’s School of Medicine & their Journalism’s Center for Communicating Science, and graduated medical school with clinical accolades at NY’s oldest osteopathic college, NYIT.

I am a board-certified Psychiatric Nurse Practitioner, with more than 11 years of psychiatric experience. I strive to provide safe access to mental health services across the lifespan and specialize in a wide range of psychiatric conditions. I am certified in medical Marijuana and Suboxone.

I’m a licensed psychotherapist based in New York, working with adults navigating anxiety, trauma, grief, life transitions, and questions of meaning.My clinical training includes CBT, trauma-informed care, and mindfulness-based approaches, along with certification in psychedelic-assisted therapy through CIIS and MAPS. I also have experience supporting clients around identity, immigration, and cross-cultural experiences, and offer therapy in both English and Russian.

I have 10+ years of experience working at 4 New York City Hospitals on Adult Inpatient Psychiatric, Geriatric, Forensic, Detox, PHP, Palliative Care, Medical, Neurology & COVID-19 Units. Individuals on these units experiencing symptoms such as: depression, anxiety, psychosis, dual diagnosis, addiction to drugs and/or alcohol, mania & complex traumas. I have worked with a diverse patient base including various cultures, ethnicities, races, sexualities, and gender identities. It is my belief that humans gain deep insight through verbal psychotherapy, art making, and internal processing which helps facilitate desired life changes.

I am an experienced Clinical Social Worker and Registered Yoga Teacher. My approach is down to earth, respectful, and compassionate. Clients I've worked with have ranged broadly in age, ethnicity, and gender identity.

I am an LCSW and specialize in infertility, anxiety, depression, ADHD, self-confidence, coping skills and stress/anger management, and life transitions. Having had my own journey in building a family, I understand the unexpected challenges (i.e. pregnancy loss, fertility preservation, third-party reproduction and ART), as well as the transition to parenthood. In addition, I provide consultations for intended patents, and evaluations for gestational carriers and egg/sperm donors.

I began my psychiatric nursing career after graduating from Columbia University School of Nursing in 2009. Several years later, I pursued an advanced practice degree, also at Columbia University, and earned a PhD. I lived in Poland and France before I arrived to the United States at the turn of this century. Given my international experience, I work in three languages: English, French, and Polish. I offer therapy and medication management and the clients and me decide on the best approach.

Hi, my name is Dr. Mark Aghakhan and I am a licensed clinical psychologist specializing in a variety of therapeutic, educative, consultative, and evaluative services. I utilize interventions that best match my client’s style and approach toward everyday challenges.
