More About Us

Our Story

Established in 2020, during the COVID-19 Pandemic, New England Psychiatry was created with the intent of decreasing the stigma surrounding mental health while providing effective, patient-centered treatment. Ingrained in our history are thousands of hours of professional mental health care through years of volunteer and clinical work. Our culturally competent provider has been around the globe practicing medicine and giving life-saving treatment to those in need since 2014.

We pride ourselves in maintaining a degree of excellence in patient-centered care.

Mental health awareness, including addiction and trauma, is symbolized with various colors of blue and green nationwide. Our logo was developed with the intention to raise awareness on mental health disorders while incorporating the structural similarities between neuroplasticity and the tree of life. Developed with the knowledge of neuroplasticity and tree symbolism, branches break off and grow on a tree with proper nourishment and care; new neural connections can be made when psychiatric treatment is adequately established.
