In her psychiatry practice, she treats adults (ages 20s through 40s) struggling with depression, anxiety, stress, relationships, body image / eating issues, adjustment difficulties, life transitions, loss, insomnia, panic, OCD, and the challenges of academic & professional lives. Dr. Ozkarahan offers online psychotherapy, medications when needed, and lifestyle psychiatry treatments through a holistic, action-oriented, and problem-solving model.

With a warm, practical, and conversational approach to psychotherapy for every patient, she prescribes medication gently and only when necessary. Dr. Ozkarahan's extensive training by the National Academy of Sports Medicine, regarded as the most respected leader in fitness certification, enables her to incorporate lifestyle-oriented coaching on physical exercise, nutrition, yoga, meditation, sleep optimization, and motivational support.

Dr. Ozkarahan earned her medical degree (MD) from New York Medical College and completed her adult psychiatry residency training at NYU Langone Health / Bellevue Hospital Center. Following her residency, Dr. Ozkarahan obtained advanced training in Psychodynamic Psychotherapy at the Columbia University Center for Psychoanalytic Training and Research. She is a Clinical Assistant Professor at NYU School of Medicine where she interviews applicants to the medical school annually. For several years, she worked as a psychiatrist on the Student Mental Health Service of Columbia University Medical Center where she treated graduate & professional level students in the health sciences who were struggling with the emotional demands of higher education.

Dr. Ozkarahan's unique combination of credentials empower her to treat the whole person -- body and mind.


Message to clients

Hi, I'm Dr. Ozkarahan, and I'm a Board-Certified Psychiatrist treating adults in the 20s through 40s age range who live in New York State or New Jersey. Please refer to my video for a quick summary of who I am and what I offer. As an out-of-network psychiatrist, patients pay my full session fee up front and submit my superbills to their insurance company to get reimbursed.

I have also created, written, and narrated an online meditation program containing stunning, specially-composed music. This is now offered as a free tool for my patients to supplement our work together!

For details about my fees and to schedule a consultation, please message me directly on Zencare. I'm quick & responsive and will give a clear explanation of this whole process. I'll also provide a handout with specific questions to ask your insurance to find out about your reimbursement rates. I look forward to hearing from you!
