Autism Psychiatry in New York City
Neurodiversity-affirming psychiatric care that takes the time to understand the whole person.
All-physician practice
The doctor who provides our autism care in New York City
At Center Clinics, every patient sees a highly-trained physician comfortable providing psychotherapy and personalized medication management. We do not employ lower-level providers like nurse practitioners or clinical social workers.
How we approach autism care
Autistic children and adults rarely fit into a fifteen-minute med-check appointment. Behavior is communication, and understanding what a person with autism is actually feeling takes time, listening, and real nuance. Our neurodiversity-affirming physicians take the time to understand you or your child as a whole person.
