Psychiatrist in Nashua, New Hampshire Arun Krishnan, Psychiatrist

Part of Dr. Krishnan’s clinical time is devoted to working with resident physicians from Portsmouth Regional Hospital-HCA Healthcare/Tufts University. Resident physicians are licensed doctors who have completed medical school and are finalizing their specialty training in psychiatry. They are currently completing their 3rd postgraduate year of training at LifeStance Health, Inc. Your initial appointment may either be solely with Dr. Krishnan, or may be with a resident physician with Dr. Krishnan joining towards the end of the appointment to review history, current symptoms, and discuss the plan of care with the resident physician. You would continue to see your resident physician throughout the year and Dr. Krishnan would continue to be involved in your care. Residents change each year in July, but Dr. Krishnan would stay constant as the supervising psychiatrist. Accepts ages: 5-40 Arun Krishnan M.D. For Telehealth visits, patient must be located in New Hampshire or Massachusetts during the appointment. The patient should be present and willing to be on screen. If under 18, please have the current weight and height and a legal guardian should be present in addition as well. Dr. Krishnan is a licensed, board-certified psychiatrist with a sub-specialty in Child and Adolescent Psychiatry. He was trained in general, child and adolescent psychiatry at Brookdale Hospital Medical Center, Brooklyn, NY where he completed his residency and fellowship. After finishing fellowship, he had worked in inpatient, residential and outpatient psychiatric settings. He is providing tele-psychiatry and in-office appointments in Nashua, NH. Dr. Krishnan focus is primarily psychiatric evaluations/medication management, psychotherapy is occasionally added to his follow up if need be. He will be happy to provide referrals for psychotherapy, if appropriate, as medications-only might not be the best approach for many youths.
