Boski Patel, MD

Boski Patel, MD

Staff Psychiatrist

My practice focuses on medication management, typically in conjunction with supportive therapy in 30-minute follow-up visits. On occasion, I may believe that additional therapy is also needed and ask that you bring a therapist into your care team to provide the best outcome. I am double board-certified in geriatric and adult psychiatry.

I received my undergraduate degree from the University of Pittsburgh and my medical degree from Penn State University. Following medical school, I completed general psychiatry residency training at the University of Connecticut, where I was Chief Resident of outpatient psychiatric services. During that time, I was also chosen as an Honors Scholar by the American Association of Geriatric Psychiatry. After training, I moved to California to complete my geriatric psychiatry fellowship at Stanford. Following my fellowship, I worked at Kaiser Permanente in clinical roles of outpatient, geriatric, and C/L.

I emphasize cooperation with patients to effectively treat and reduce mental health-related symptoms.

Brian Ameel, MD

Brian Ameel, MD

Staff Psychiatrist

I believe the most effective treatment begins with a genuine partnership where doctor and patient work together with transparency, collaboration, and mutual respect. I take a "whole person" approach using a biopsychosocial model that considers physical health, life experiences, and environment alongside symptoms. My goal is to combine evidence-based medicine with a personal, accessible approach so patients feel heard and supported.

I am a board-certified psychiatrist with over 30 years of clinical experience and a deep specialization in remote mental health delivery. I have worked in inpatient, outpatient, and residential settings and have served in leadership roles as a Medical Director. Throughout my career, I have leveraged telehealth technology to bridge gaps in care, ensuring that distance is never a barrier to receiving compassionate, timely psychiatric treatment.

During the first visit, I complete a comprehensive psychiatric consultation focused on the concerns that prompted you to seek care, along with a review of symptoms and treatment history. Together we will develop a treatment plan with clear goals. Care often begins with medication management and continues with supportive, insight-oriented conversations during follow-up visits, with additional therapy recommended when helpful.

Find a psychiatrist in Brooklyn, NY

Booking a psychiatrist in Brooklyn can mean long waits and a scramble to find someone taking new patients. Talkiatry connects you with a licensed psychiatrist who treats New York residents online, so you can be seen from anywhere in Brooklyn, whether you are in Bay Ridge, Bed-Stuy, or Flatbush. Visits happen by secure video from home, which means no commute across the borough and no waiting on a list to be seen.

Online psychiatry for Brooklyn residents

You start by answering a few questions online, then get matched with a psychiatrist licensed in New York who fits your needs. Your first visit lasts 60 minutes, giving you time to talk through your symptoms, ask questions, and work with your psychiatrist on a plan. Follow-up visits usually run about 30 minutes. Because care is online, there is no Brooklyn office to travel to, so "a psychiatrist near me" becomes a psychiatrist you can see from your own home, on your own schedule.

What a psychiatrist can help with

Talkiatry psychiatrists are medical doctors who evaluate your symptoms, listen to your history, and build a plan around what you actually need. They treat conditions including anxiety, depression, and ADHD, along with bipolar disorder, OCD, and PTSD. Medication may be one part of that plan, but it is never automatic; your psychiatrist decides what fits your situation. Depending on your needs, therapy may also be part of your care.

Does insurance cover a psychiatrist in Brooklyn?

Talkiatry is in-network with major insurers, so many patients use their existing coverage. During your free assessment, your coverage is verified before you schedule, so you know where you stand up front. What you pay out of pocket depends on your plan, so check with your insurer for an estimate specific to your benefits.

Mental health care in New York

Across New York, 200 areas are designated as mental health professional shortage areas, covering about 3.77 million people, and only about 15.2 percent of the need for psychiatric care is currently met (KFF). For someone in Brooklyn, that shortage often shows up as long waits and few local openings. Online psychiatry helps expand access by connecting you with a licensed psychiatrist across the state, rather than limiting your options to providers with an opening in your immediate area.

Psychiatry across New York

Brooklyn is one part of the care Talkiatry offers statewide. To see the full picture of psychiatrists licensed across the state, visit our New York psychiatry page.

Can I get a prescription from an online psychiatrist in Brooklyn?

A Talkiatry psychiatrist can prescribe and manage medication when it is clinically appropriate and legally permitted. A prescription is never guaranteed; your psychiatrist decides what fits your evaluation and treatment plan.
