Dr. Gauri Khurana
Medicine, writing, and the space between.

Where medicine
meets meaning.

I am a board-certified psychiatrist practicing in New York City, where I see children, adolescents, and adults for psychotherapy and medication management. I completed my training in adult psychiatry at Yale University and in child and adolescent psychiatry at NYU. My clinical work is rooted in a simple conviction: that healing asks for more than symptom management. It requires time, genuine relationship, and a willingness to understand the whole person.

I have a particular interest in psychedelic medicine and offer ketamine-assisted psychotherapy as part of my practice for select existing patients. This work is medically supervised, integrated into ongoing care, and embedded within a therapeutic relationship. It is not a standalone procedure.

I am also a writer. I am currently at work on a memoir.

A different kind of psychiatric practice.

I offer individualized psychiatric care grounded in relationship, time, and attention. My work spans psychotherapy and medication management for children, adolescents, and adults — with a focus on understanding the person, not just the diagnosis.

For select existing patients, I also offer ketamine-assisted psychotherapy. This is not a standalone service — it is available only as part of an ongoing therapeutic relationship, fully integrated into a broader treatment plan, and conducted under close medical supervision.

Based in New York City. Accepting new patients.

Adult Psychiatry

Comprehensive psychiatric care for adults navigating depression, anxiety, PTSD, bipolar disorder, and other conditions. Treatment plans are individualized and may include medication management, psychotherapy, and lifestyle interventions — always with an emphasis on understanding the whole person, not just the diagnosis.

Child & Teen Psychiatry

Specialized evaluation and treatment for children and adolescents facing emotional, behavioral, and developmental challenges — including ADHD, anxiety, mood disorders, and school-related difficulties. I work closely with families to create supportive, age-appropriate care plans that honor each young person's experience.

Psychedelic Medication

Ketamine-assisted psychotherapy is offered exclusively to existing patients as part of a comprehensive treatment plan. It is not a standalone service. This work is medically supervised, carefully structured, and embedded within an ongoing therapeutic relationship — with dedicated preparation and integration to support lasting change.
