Amy Lowry, MD
My passion lies in holistic, compassionate, and evidence-based care for a wide range of conditions including depression, anxiety, PTSD, ADHD, and life transitions. I bring extensive experience in comprehensive psychiatric evaluations, medication management, and psychotherapy, utilizing cognitive-behavioral (CBT), psychodynamic, supportive, and dialectical behavioral (DBT) therapy approaches. I create a warm, respectful environment where patients feel heard and valued, and I encourage autonomy through mental health education and open dialogue, working to ensure patients are informed and engaged in their treatment. I prioritize empathy and trust, believing a strong doctor-patient relationship is key to achieving lasting therapeutic outcomes.
I begin with a comprehensive understanding of each patient's history, concerns, and goals. I develop individualized treatment plans and incorporate psychotherapy into each session to align with patient goals and enhance treatment response. Patient goals are revisited regularly to adapt plans as progress is made.

Anastasia Ruiz, MD
I am a psychiatrist specializing in adult and maternal mental health. I develop personalized treatment plans to address anxiety, depression, bipolar disorder, ADHD, OCD, PTSD, PMDD, and perinatal conditions. My goal is to help patients reconnect with their values and live balanced, fulfilled, and meaningful lives. I combine pharmacotherapy (medication) with psychotherapy to create individualized treatment plans. Therapy provides powerful tools to manage thoughts, emotions, and behaviors that support balanced brain chemistry, and research shows that medication helps restore this balance more quickly and effectively, especially in moderate to severe cases.
I liken medication for the brain to fertilizer for a garden. Imagine your mental health as a vibrant garden: when well-nourished, it can thrive with resilience, beauty, and balance. But when symptoms like depression, anxiety, ADHD, or mood instability take hold, they act like invasive weeds, crowding out healthy growth and making it hard to enjoy the space. Medication acts like fertilizer, strengthening the garden's natural systems so the healthy parts can reclaim their place and flourish. Just as some gardens need only seasonal care while others require more consistent tending, medication plans are personalized to support each person's long-term mental wellness. My approach emphasizes diagnostic clarity, medication management, patient education, and brief psychotherapy based on cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) and acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT). I believe patients should take an active role in understanding their diagnosis and treatment.
Your first appointment is a supportive, in-depth conversation to share your story, challenges, and goals. I will review your medical and psychiatric history and assess symptoms using a whole-person approach that considers biological, psychological, and social factors. Together, we will develop a personalized plan that may include lab work, medication, and therapy. Initial visits last 60 minutes for thorough evaluation; follow-ups typically last 20–30 minutes, focusing on medication management and brief therapy. If needed, I can refer you to in-house or community therapists for add-on therapy support. Throughout your care, I prioritize shared decision making to ensure you feel informed, empowered, and supported.
My passion for medicine began in childhood, inspired by curiosity about the mind and body. I earned an Honors Chemistry degree with magna cum laude and completed my medical training and psychiatry residency at Texas Tech University Health Sciences Center. With a strong scientific foundation, I understand the role of medications and embrace holistic healing through connection, gratitude, and spirituality. I have experience in diverse clinical settings and have received national awards including the AWP International Fellowship and ADMSEP Innovations Award. I am dedicated to advancing maternal mental health screening and treatment through clinical care and education.

Anh Tran, MD
New patients can expect me to respect their time and autonomy while working together to establish shared treatment goals. I value open candor and punctuality, aiming to create a therapeutic relationship grounded in mutual trust, transparency, and collaboration. During the first visit, I take a comprehensive history and background to determine if the therapeutic relationship is the right fit for both patient and provider. Ongoing care typically involves monthly appointments for medication management until stability is achieved, after which visits may shift to quarterly follow-ups. This structured yet flexible approach supports continuity and long-term well-being.
I completed undergraduate studies, medical school, and psychiatry residency training at Saint Louis University. Following training, I joined the Department of Veterans Affairs, where I provided care in an outpatient setting with both telehealth and in-person services. This experience has given me a strong clinical background and a dedication to supporting patients through accessible and personalized psychiatric care.
Find a psychiatrist in New York, NY
New York is full of specialists, yet getting on a psychiatrist's schedule can still take months. Talkiatry gives you another route: a psychiatrist in New York, NY who sees you by secure video, often within days rather than months.
Your psychiatrist is licensed in New York, so you can be seen from anywhere in the city, whether you are in Manhattan, Queens, or the Bronx.
How online psychiatry works for New York residents
Care happens by secure video, from wherever you are. You answer a few questions in a short assessment, then get matched with a psychiatrist licensed in New York. No subway ride, no waiting room.
Your first visit lasts 60 minutes, so there is time to explain your symptoms, ask questions, and shape a plan together. Later visits usually run about 30 minutes. The goal is a psychiatrist who listens and adjusts your care over time.
What a psychiatrist in New York can help with
A psychiatrist is a medical doctor trained to diagnose mental health conditions and manage treatment. Talkiatry psychiatrists help people with anxiety, depression, and ADHD, plus conditions such as bipolar disorder, OCD, and PTSD.
When medication is part of your plan, your psychiatrist can prescribe and manage it when clinically appropriate and legally permissible. A prescription is never guaranteed, and some medications may not be available for online prescribing. Your psychiatrist will talk through the options with you.
Therapy may also fit into your care, depending on your needs and availability.
Does insurance cover a psychiatrist in New York?
Talkiatry is in-network with major insurers, and we check your coverage during the free assessment before you schedule anything. That way you know where you stand before your first visit. What you pay out of pocket depends on your plan, so confirm the details with your insurer.
Mental health care in New York
Even in a large city, finding an available psychiatrist is hard. According to KFF's analysis of federal shortage data, New York has 200 designated mental health professional shortage areas. Only about 15.2% of the state's need for mental health practitioners is currently met. Closing that gap would take an estimated 238 more psychiatrists.

Who is the best psychiatrist in NYC?

There is no single best psychiatrist, because the right fit depends on your needs, condition, and goals. Talkiatry matches you with a psychiatrist licensed in New York based on what you share in your assessment.

What is the 3 month rule in mental health?

There is no official three-month rule in psychiatry. People sometimes use the phrase to describe giving a new medication or routine enough time to show effects, which can take several weeks. Your psychiatrist sets follow-up timing based on your treatment and how you respond, not a fixed rule.
