Getting to know Dr. Anuj Gupta
Please note: this is a private-pay practice. Insurance is not accepted. Fees are listed below.
I am a Cornell-trained adult psychiatrist with twenty years of experience working with individuals who operate at a high level across business, medicine, technology, the arts, and competitive athletics. My practice is intentionally limited, allowing for longer appointments, direct communication, and a focused private-medical setting.
I was selected for an accelerated BA/MD medical program — a highly competitive pathway combining undergraduate and medical training — before completing residency at Weill Cornell Medical Center. I completed fellowship training at NYU and have held faculty appointments at Columbia University and NYU. My work has been recognized with national awards for excellence in medical education.
My approach emphasizes clarity, sound judgment, and continuity. I work with patients who value a thoughtful, steady process and a psychiatrist comfortable engaging with complexity and responsibility.
What should a new client know about working with you?
Patients who work well in my practice tend to be motivated, reflective, and decisive. Many are balancing significant professional or personal demands and want care that is efficient, discreet, and reliable.
Appointments are structured and focused. I listen carefully, ask direct questions, and provide clear guidance. Treatment decisions are collaborative, grounded in careful diagnostic reasoning and clinical experience. The goal is to support sustained functioning, emotional steadiness, and long-term wellbeing.
This is not a high-volume practice. It is designed for individuals who value consistency, professionalism, and a serious approach to care.
What is your typical process for working with clients?
The initial appointment is a comprehensive 60-minute evaluation. We review relevant history, current concerns, and goals, and establish a clear plan moving forward. Follow-up sessions are 45 minutes and scheduled according to clinical need — from weekly to every few months.
I do not offer brief medication-only visits. Longer sessions allow for more precise diagnosis, thoughtful treatment adjustments, and continuity of care.
I collaborate with outside therapists when appropriate and integrate elements of psychodynamic therapy, CBT, interpersonal therapy, and ACT as needed.
My fees are comprehensive: patients have direct access between sessions and can expect timely responses. There are no additional charges for communication or routine administrative needs.
For individuals seeking evaluation for possible ADHD, I may recommend formal testing prior to prescribing stimulant medications.

Dr.Gupta has helped me understand my condition and provided clarity and peace of mind that I had been missing for years before seeing him. I feel comfortable and open-minded in my sessions with him. His care for me in this case has been without a doubt stellar in every aspect, completely life-changing.
September 6, 2024Armaan V.Verified patientVideo visit
This doctor, in so many words, saved my life. It was very easy to see him and talking to him was just as comfortable. All I can say is that before I met with the doctor vs. after I met with him, was the difference between night and day. I did not know what I needed until I spoke up and got the help I needed. I'm grateful.

Dr. Gupta is excellent. The only problem is scheduling. I had to change the appointment for today and I got 2 conflicting confirmations: 1:00pm and 1:15pm from two different scheduling apps. Dr. Gupta will look into it.

Dr. Gupta is gentle, kind, intelligent and well informed about psychiatric medications. He advises by informing and engaging me in making a decision about my care.

Arrived at a concrete medication plan after withdrawal from a med I’ve been on for 35 years that offers help for my needs and hopefully will be insurance covered.
June 27, 2024Margery B.Verified patientVideo visit
Dr. Gupta is excellent. He is consistently my favorite of my doctors. He is a great listener, believes what I tell him, and works with me to find solutions that work given my constraints, rather than telling me to do things that are unrealistic for various reasons (time, cost, ability, etc.). I would highly recommend him.
April 3, 2024Ella T.Verified patientVideo visit
I have seen many doctors in the past. I have tried my hardest to become as healthy as I could both mentally and physically. About 6-8 months ago everything changed for the better with the help of Dr. Gupta. Simply explain your issues, he will listen... in due time, if you accept the treatment provided, you will see a dramatic increase in your quality of life.
February 13, 2024Sean S.Verified patientVideo visit
I can easily say that I have a better understanding of my mental health. With Dr. Guptas treatment, my quality of life has dramatically changed for the better. I thought I had tried everything. If you will excuse me, I have to get back to writing a book that I have always wanted to do but never got around to for endless reasons (procrastination & low self esteem) I feel great today, as I did yesterday. I'm not worried about tomorrow.

I had my first virtual consultation with Dr Gupta and it was great. He was very empathetic and I found it easy to talk to him. He gave me a diagnosis and was able to provide me treatment options and future therapy! I am very glad I booked this appointment and it was an hour well spent! I would definitely recommend him to anyone, he is knowledgeable and you find it easy to talk with him!!!

I just had my first session with Dr. Gupta and I am not only excited for my next meeting but my family and I feel I am in good hands. Only the future will tell, but I feel very optimistic/pleased with his communication skills and description of what my diagnosis was.
June 21, 2023Sean S.Verified patientVideo visit
Dr Gupta is very thoughtful and was engaged in what I was saying. He’s supportive and doesn’t judge. He just listens and makes connections from the past to the future. I scheduled weekly sessions with him and I’m excited to go on this mental health journey with him, after 17 years with another provider.

Dr. Gupta is an amazing psychiatrist. He makes you feel at ease when talking to him and doesn’t pressure you or make you feel like you have to talk about certain issues when you’re not ready. He carefully goes over the “why” behind any medication he recommends and always checks in when he’s prescribed a new medication. I highly recommend him to anyone and I will continue to see him.
November 23, 2022Cheney C.Verified patientVideo visit
Dr. Gupta is one of the best psychiatrists I've worked with (and I've seen a few). His approach is far more holistic and patient than simply prescribing meds. He provides such a safe space and I find he is just as good of a listener and as insightful as any talk therapist, while truly trying to find the best treatment all around. It is pricey but you really get amazing amazing care with Dr. Gupta.

Dr Gupta is the best. If you need real genuine care he is your doctor.Thanks to doctors like him who are really invested in their patients well being. Dr Gupta makes it his main objective to understand everything about you and provides care that suits you. His therapists are also fantastic! I am ever so grateful to zocdoc that found Dr Gupta for me.

He is very thorough and compassionate and works hard to find the treatments that are right for you. I have noticed a marked change since working with him (which has been about 8 months now) and cannot recommend him highly enough.

Anuj Gupta was so helpful and gave me so much peace. He really takes the time to listen to you and asks good questions to understand your history. I felt heard, empathized with, and cared for. I would highly recommend Anuj to anyone.
April 27, 2021Larena Danielle P.Verified patient
He was amazing and a great listener. I was searching for help for a while and he was the first person to jump into action to help me out. I felt like he cared more about my situation rather tan the money.

Comprehensively yet compassionately discusses my past history of problems as well as putting emphasis on solutions moving forward. Dr Gupta has left me feeling positive for the future with my new treatment plan.
April 27, 2020Jacob L.Verified patient
Anuj Gupta is excellent. He is extremely knowledgable about psychopharmacology, psychiatry, and mental health in general. He is thorough when evaluating new patients and formulating a treatment plan. (For example, he asks you to bring in a list of every medication you've ever taken, something that, in my experience, surprisingly few practitioners do.) He is also a very good communicator, both in sessions and in between via email. I highly recommend his practice and am glad to have found it.
