Physician-led psychiatry

Sattva Psychiatry

Online psychiatry for adults seeking diagnostic clarity, thoughtful medication treatment, and individualized treatment planning.

Sattva Psychiatry provides psychiatric evaluation, medication management, and second-opinion consultation for adults physically located in New York, Washington, DC, or Virginia at the time of each appointment.

Clinical style

A psychiatric evaluation that helps the pieces fit together.

Evaluation often involves piecing together seemingly separate parts of your life — symptoms, temperament, relationships, stressors, medical history, medication response, and personal history — into a clearer clinical picture.

Sessions are designed to help you feel seen, heard, and understood, while treatment decisions are made together with attention to evidence, safety, prior response, side effects, tolerability, and your goals.

Good fit

Who this practice may fit well.

Understanding yourself more clearly

This practice may be a good fit if you want to better understand your symptoms, treatment options, and medication response through a thoughtful process that values your perspective.

Anxiety, depression, sleep, and stress-related symptoms

Evaluation may be useful when symptoms are affecting mood, sleep, focus, relationships, work, or daily functioning, and you want a clearer understanding of what may help.

Medication questions or partial response

This may include medication side effects, uncertainty about whether medication is helping, prior trials that were difficult to interpret, or questions about next steps.

Therapy plus psychiatric medication consultation

Patients already working with a therapist may continue that work while receiving psychiatric evaluation and medication treatment when appropriate.

What to expect

A personalized psychiatric treatment process.

Clarify the clinical picture

Evaluation synthesizes symptoms, personal history, temperament, medical context, prior treatment, and medication response into a practical understanding of the current difficulty.

Make medication decisions together

Medication decisions are guided by evidence, safety, prior response, side effects, tolerability, medical context, and your goals.

Track response over time

Follow-up focuses on symptom change, functioning, side effects, medication tolerability, and whether the treatment plan still fits.

Clinical scope

Designed for outpatient telepsychiatry.

Some concerns require emergency, intensive, addiction-focused, in-person, or community-based treatment and may be better served in another setting. New patient requests are reviewed for fit before scheduling is finalized.

Controlled substances, including stimulants, benzodiazepines, and Z-drugs, are not prescribed.
