Hi there. Thank you for visiting. I am a Harlem Hospital (in New York) trained Psychiatrist who works with adult individuals. 

In 2024, I achieved Board Certification in General Psychiatry once I have gathered sufficient expertise in treating psychiatric disorders. To expand my clinical knowledge/skills further, I went to the Columbia University Irving Medical Center and am currently receiving a post-doctoral (fellowship) training for Board Certification in Geriatric Psychiatry. 

In my private practice, I assess and treat older adults and adults of all age groups help them alleviate their suffering. My clinical interests include depression, sleep problems, stress and anxiety issues, cultural and religious wellbeing that are affecting mental health and family dynamics or relationships.

I become skillful in treating psychosis, schizophrenia, bipolar disorder and PTSD. In addition I am trained in ECT (Shock Therapy) which is usually used for treatment resistant depression and psychosis. My model of treatment is patient centered, and my patient’s opinion matters most. I counsel my patients with respect, compassion and empathy. I will not treat mental illness with medications unless treatment with medication is unavoidably necessary.

I am bilingual in English and Bangla (বাংলা) and can offer psychotherapy in Bangla. As someone who was raised and educated in Bangladesh, I understand Bengali culture which is reflected in our treatment.

I also understand Hindi (हिन्दी) and Urdu (اردو)
