Adult and Reproductive psychiatrist
My name is Ariela Frieder and I am a bilingual (English and Spanish), board certified psychiatrist who specializes in women’s mental health. This includes emotional and psychological problems during pregnancy, postpartum, perinatal losses, infertility and premenstrual dysphoric disorder.
My background includes a residency in OBGYN in Argentina and, a residency in Adult Psychiatry and a Fellowship in Consultation Liaison Psychiatry at Montefiore Medical Center/ Albert Einstein College of Medicine in the Bronx. Initially, after graduation I worked at the Primary care and High Risk OBGYN clinic at Montefiore Medical Group where I treated women suffering from different psychiatric conditions and going through pregnancy, postpartum, infertility and perinatal losses and both men and women with medical problems who needed psychiatric treatment. I taught and supervised residents, fellows and medical students. In 2015 I left Montefiore to join Northwell Health where I worked as the Director of Psychiatry at LIJ Forest Hills Hospital and at Zucker Hillside Hospital perinatal program. Eventually, I transitioned to be the physician in charge of the Perinatal Program at Zucker Hillside Hospital in NY. There, I had the opportunity to treat hundreds of women with psychiatric problems during the perinatal period. I also continued to teach and supervise psychiatrists in training and medical students. I had the opportunity to present in conferences, write articles and still do.

I treat both women and men. Men can also suffer from perinatal psychiatric symptoms. The services I provide are treatment of mood and anxiety disorders through medication management and psychotherapy that is tailored to your needs. I also provide consultations for women with mental health issues associated to the different stages of the reproductive cycle (pregnancy, postpartum, hormonal contraception, premenstrual dysphoric disorder, PMS and menopause). I practice in English and Spanish.
