West Village Addiction Psychiatry

Dr. Paul Poulakos is a thoughtful and highly professional psychiatrist who clearly takes a patient-centered approach to care. From the first appointment, he creates a comfortable, low-pressure environment that makes it easier to open up—even if you’re new to therapy or psychiatry. What stood out most to me is his ability to listen carefully and communicate clearly. He doesn’t rush sessions and takes time to understand your background before recommending a plan. He’s also very responsive and organized—scheduling has been smooth. Overall, if you’re looking for a psychiatrist who is attentive, easy to talk to, and thoughtful, Dr. Poulakos is the perfect option—especially if you value a more personalized, high-touch experience.

Paul is a thoughtful, intentional and kind clinician. I've consulted with him professionally for many years and highly recommend him! He takes his time, is present with each client, and truly treats everyone with respect and integrity.
