Joseph Psychiatry is a telehealth mental health practice created to offer steady and supportive care for people facing challenges in their daily lives. We focus on creating an environment where you feel respected, understood, and able to talk openly about what you are experiencing. Our aim is to provide care that feels clear, thoughtful, and genuinely useful, so you can move forward with a better sense of direction and support.

Joseph Psychiatry was founded by Dr. Amanda Joseph, a board-certified psychiatrist who holds both an MD and an MBA. Dr. Joseph completed her residency at Jamaica Hospital Medical Center, one of the highest-volume and highest-acuity psychiatric programs in New York. As chief resident, she gained extensive experience in psychiatric emergency care as well as inpatient and outpatient settings. This work shaped her ability to meet patients with a practical and supportive approach.

‍Dr. Joseph serves as the medical director of Joseph Psychiatry and remains actively involved in supporting the clinical team. Our nurse practitioners and physician assistants are experienced licensed providers who work collaboratively within our practice and can draw on her expertise when needed. Expanding our care team allows us to reach more individuals in need of mental health support while maintaining the thoughtful and high quality care that defines our practice.‍

Dr. Joseph actively serves her local church community. She also sits on the board of a nonprofit organization dedicated to providing essential resources and medical care for underserved individuals in the United States and Africa. Joseph Psychiatry proudly supports this important work through charitable contributions.

Outside of work, Dr. Joseph enjoys traveling with her husband and two children. Since her kids are big animal lovers, their trips usually include zoos, aquariums, or anything with wildlife. She also loves cooking and often incorporates recipes inspired by her Indian heritage. Her family’s favorite dish is her homemade mango pie.

A meaningful part of Joseph Psychiatry’s origin is that Dr. Joseph never planned to open a private practice. She expected to continue working entirely within hospital systems until several of her senior mentors encouraged her to create a practice of her own. They told her she had a natural ability to connect with patients and a gift for understanding their needs.

Their encouragement played a significant role in the creation of Joseph Psychiatry and continues to guide the standard of care we provide today. The practice exists because people who worked closely with Dr. Joseph saw the impact she had on patients and believed her approach could could make a real difference for more patients.

We take a simple, practical, and patient-centered approach. Every person has a different story, and we make it a priority to understand yours without rush or assumptions. We focus on what you are dealing with right now and what could help you feel and function better in your daily life. Our visits are collaborative and grounded in real understanding so that the care you receive feels clear, supportive, and thoughtfully tailored to your needs. We aim to offer care that feels steady and reliable, especially during times when life feels uncertain or overwhelming.

All appointments take place through secure virtual visits, giving you the flexibility to receive care from a place where you feel most at ease. Our process is straightforward. We start with a brief consult call, followed by a full intake appointment where we talk through your history, symptoms, and what has or has not helped in the past. From there, we meet regularly for follow-ups to check in, make adjustments, and continue supporting your progress. The goal is to make getting care feel simple, approachable, and free of unnecessary barriers.
