Most people searching for a psychiatrist referral NYC don’t really want another provider who rushes through a 10-minute appointment and hands them a generic treatment plan on the way out. They want someone who actually listens. Someone who looks at what’s really driving the problem, not just the symptoms on the surface.
At Gimel Health, just minutes from Manhattan in Fort Lee, NJ, Michael Feldman PA-C takes a different approach. With a background in molecular and cellular biology and years of experience treating patients across the New York metro area, he brings a level of scientific depth to psychiatric care that most NYC-area offices simply don’t offer. Patients from all five boroughs, Manhattan, Brooklyn, Queens, the Bronx, and Staten Island, come to Gimel Health when they’ve tried the usual routes and want something better.
Whether you’re dealing with mood disorders, psychotic disorders, anxiety disorders, bipolar disorder, eating disorders, psychotic disorders, or other mental health conditions, Gimel Health builds a personalized medication management plan around your unique needs. Not a one-size-fits-all prescription. A real treatment approach, backed by science, tailored to you.
Referring a patient for psychiatric care shouldn’t feel like sending them into a black hole. Michael Feldman works closely with primary care physicians, therapists, and other mental health professionals involved in a patient’s care. With your consent, he coordinates across your full care team, whether that includes individual psychotherapy, cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavioral therapy, or behavioral health services from another provider, to make sure nothing falls through the cracks.
Michael Feldman PA-C is fluent in English, Russian, and Hebrew, and brings genuine cultural sensitivity to every session. Something many New Yorkers find hard to come by in a busy city practice.
New patients are currently being accepted for both in-person appointments at our Fort Lee office and telehealth visits across New York State, New Jersey, and surrounding States. If you or a family member has been looking for psychiatric care that actually fits your life, Gimel Health is ready when you are.
Gimel Health operates as an out-of-network provider. Patients with out-of-network benefits through plans like UnitedHealthcare, Blue Cross Blue Shield, Aetna, Cigna, or other insurance plans may be eligible for partial reimbursement. Superbills are provided after every appointment to support your claim with your insurance provider.

No formal psychiatrist referral NYC is required to book an appointment at Gimel Health. Patients can self-refer directly by contacting us online or by phone. That said, if your primary care physician or therapist has recommended a psychiatric medication evaluation, we’re a natural next step. Some insurance plans do require a referral for out-of-network reimbursement, so it’s worth checking with your insurance provider before your first visit.
I treat a wide range of mental health conditions, including mood disorders, bipolar disorder, anxiety disorders, post-traumatic stress disorder, personality disorders, borderline personality disorder, psychotic disorders, eating disorders, and substance use disorders. I also work with patients managing ADHD, sleep disorders, and substance abuse issues where these overlap with other psychiatric conditions.
A psychiatrist is a medical doctor who specializes in diagnosing and treating mental health disorders. A psychiatric physician associate (PA-C) like Michael Feldman has equivalent prescribing authority and provides the same psychiatric medication evaluations and medication management. A therapist provides talk-based mental health treatment, such as individual psychotherapy, cognitive behavioral therapy, family therapy, or group therapy, but cannot prescribe medication. Many patients get the best results working with both a psychiatric provider and a therapist side by side.
Yes. Gimel Health is located in Fort Lee, NJ, directly across the George Washington Bridge from upper Manhattan. For many New Yorkers, it’s actually easier to reach than practices located deep in the city. Gimel Health serves patients across the greater New York City area, including patients traveling from New York City, Staten Island, Long Island City, Suffern, Monsey, Nanuet, Warwick, White Plains, Tarrytown, and surrounding areas in New Jersey. Appointments are also available for patients across New York State who prefer remote visits.
I don’t prescribe based on a checklist of symptoms. My background in molecular and cellular biology means he approaches psychiatric medication from the ground up, looking at the biological and neurological factors that influence your mental health conditions before recommending anything. Every treatment program starts with a full psychiatric evaluation, and ongoing medication management visits keep the plan responsive as you progress.
I have experience treating patients where substance use disorders and substance abuse overlap with conditions like mood disorders, anxiety disorders, and bipolar disorder. If substance use is the primary concern, I may refer you to specialized outpatient treatment or behavioral health services better suited to that level of care. Always with your mental health journey and quality of life in mind.
Absolutely. I actively collaborate with therapists, counselors, and outpatient services already involved in your care. Whether your therapist provides cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavioral therapy, family therapy, or group therapy, I coordinate on the medication management side to make sure both parts of your treatment approach are aligned. I also work with patients who are stepping down from inpatient services or outpatient programs and need ongoing psychiatric support.
I operate as an out-of-network provider and don’t bill insurance plans directly. That said, if you have out-of-network mental health benefits through plans like UnitedHealthcare, Blue Cross Blue Shield, or others, you may be eligible for partial reimbursement. I provide superbills after every visit to support your claim. I’d recommend contacting your insurance provider to confirm your out-of-network benefits before your first appointment.
Gimel Health is an outpatient practice and is not set up for psychiatric emergency situations. If you or a family member is experiencing a psychiatric emergency, suicidal thoughts, or severe emotional distress, please call 988 (the Suicide & Crisis Lifeline) immediately. Trained counselors are available 24/7. You can also visit your nearest emergency room or contact the NJ Crisis Lifeline for support.
You can request an appointment online directly through the Gimel Health website, or call us during business hours to speak with someone directly. New patients are welcome.
