Sabrina Gratia, D.O.
Dr. Sabrina Gratia, a double board-certified child, adolescent and adult psychiatrist, treats such psychological and emotional issues as anxiety, depression, attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD), panic disorder and trauma.
Gratia believes in taking the time to fully understand each child’s situation and mindset, which are inseparable from the family, social and educational environment. Only after she completes a comprehensive evaluation can she offer a thoughtful, well-informed treatment plan. When treating children, Dr. Gratia prefers a holistic approach, combining individual psychotherapy with lifestyle changes. If she recommends medications, Gratia will discuss risks, benefits and alternatives with the families, so they can make the most informed decision possible for their child.
Gratia completed a combined, seven-year Bachelor of Science and Doctor of Osteopathic Medicine from the College of Osteopathic Medicine, New York Institute of Technology. She completed an adult psychiatry residency at Albany Medical Center and a child and adolescent fellowship at the State University New York (SUNY) Downstate Medical Center, Brooklyn. Understanding therapy’s crucial role in treating psychiatric issues, she received additional training in psychodynamic psychotherapy at the Columbia University Center for Psychoanalytic Training and Research.
