Psychiatrists at Hudson Psychiatric Associates are licensed medical doctors able to assess the relationship between physical and mental conditions. This comprehensive perspective helps provide a more complete assessment for patients. Unlike other mental health professionals, we can integrate psychotherapy with medical assessment and treatment including ordering medical tests and prescribing medication if necessary. We are alternative medicine friendly and dedicated to the holistic care of patients while adhering to modern, scientifically backed treatment methods and evidence based standards of clinical care. We treat individuals and couples struggling with: anxiety, depression, low self-esteem, mood swings, bi-polar disorder, insomnia, panic attacks, poor concentration, infertility, postpartum depression, specific phobias, ADD/ADHD, and more.

Our office currently is accepting out-of-network patients and those patients with Aetna. Please note that this does not include Aetna clients whose mental health treatment is contracted out to another managed care company. Most patients with insurance utilize their out-of-network benefits which typically reimburse 50% to 80% of the fee. A deductible or other restrictions may be involved.

Many psychiatrists prefer a medication management model style of practice involving seeing patients every few months for a brief 10-15 minute “medication check.” Our physicians prefer a more balanced approach with more regular visits and more time allotted to each visit. While biology certainly plays a vital role in mental health, many issues and concerns are difficult to address with a simple pill.
