Ascend Psychiatry

Ascend Psychiatry is a functional and interventional psychiatric practice located in Union, NJ, founded by Dr. Mohammed Mazharuddin, a board-certified psychiatrist with advanced training at NewYork-Presbyterian/Columbia University Irving Medical Center and Creedmoor Psychiatric Center. The practice specializes in treatment-resistant depression and complex mood disorders — serving patients for whom standard psychiatric treatment has not provided adequate relief. Our Approach Care at Ascend Psychiatry begins with a thorough psychiatric evaluation that examines diagnostic clarity, prior treatment history, medical factors, and functional impact. Every treatment plan is individualized and grounded in objective, measurement-based care — using validated clinical scales and systematic symptom tracking to monitor progress and adjust treatment with precision over time. Interventional Treatments For patients who need more than medication alone, Ascend Psychiatry offers FDA-approved interventional options including: TMS (Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation) — a non-invasive therapy that targets underactive brain circuits to improve mood and resilience. Spravato® (Esketamine) — an in-office, supervised nasal spray treatment for treatment-resistant depression Precision Medication Management — carefully tailored pharmacological plans focused on symptom relief and long-term stability. The Five Pillars Philosophy Ascend Psychiatry takes a whole-person approach to mental health through its Five Pillars framework, addressing the full range of factors that influence brain health: Nourishment, Movement, Connection, Meaning, and Clinical Care. This model recognizes that lasting mental wellness depends not only on medication, but on sleep, nutrition, physical activity, social connection, and a sense of purpose. About Dr. Mazharuddin Dr. Mazharuddin is an Assistant Professor of Psychiatry at the Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai, where he received the Teacher of the Year Award in 2025. He previously served as Medical Director of NY Ketamine Infusions and brings specialized expertise in ketamine-based and emerging biological therapies for treatment-resistant mood disorders. Insurance & Access Ascend Psychiatry participates with most major insurance plans, including Aetna, Cigna, Horizon BCBS, and Medicare, making advanced psychiatric care broadly accessible.

I had never had this sort of appointment before so I was admittedly nervous, but Dr. Mazharuddin made me entirely comfortable and listened to all of my concerns. It was a pleasure seeing him.
