Dr. Wassim Stephane

Welcome to my practice. I am deeply committed to helping individuals navigate their mental health challenges with compassion and expertise. My approach is grounded in the latest scientific research, ensuring that you receive the most effective and personalized care. With a special focus on addiction psychiatry, I strive to create a supportive space where healing and growth are always possible.

I am currently deepening my expertise through a fellowship in addiction psychiatry at the Mount Sinai Health System. This specialization reflects my heartfelt commitment to addressing the significant impact substance use disorders have on mental health and overall well-being.

In addition to my focus on addiction psychiatry, I also work in the Psychiatric Emergency Department (Comprehensive Psychiatric Emergency Program), where I provide triage, assessments, and treatment to individuals experiencing urgent psychiatric needs such as severe depression, suicidal thoughts, mania, or other critical symptoms. This role enriches my insights gained from working in emergency settings, informing my approach to patient care and enabling me to offer compassionate and effective support tailored to each individual's needs.

My journey in mental health is not just about keeping up with the latest scientific research; it's about forming genuine connections with each person who walks through my door. I recognize that every person has a unique story and set of challenges, and I am here to listen, understand, and provide personalized support and guidance.

If you or a loved one is seeking help, please know that you are not alone. I warmly invite you to reach out. Together, we can explore the path to healing and well-being, ensuring that every step is taken with care, understanding, and a shared commitment to improving your mental health.
