Originally from Delhi, India, Dr. Basu completed her medical training in Nepal before relocating to the United States for a psychiatric residency at North Shore Long Island Jewish Hospital. She started the outpatient psychiatric department at Baylor University in Irving, TX, and taught psychiatry to medical students at Texas A&M before moving into private practice. 

 

Dr. Basu believes that building human connection is a critical aspect of practicing successful evidence-based medicine. She sees mental health as more than just the presence of specific symptoms, a diagnosis, or the medication her patients may decide to take. She gives clients the time, space, and non-judgmental attention they need during periods of crisis and enjoys collaborating with fellow clinicians, especially therapists, who she sees as an invaluable part of treatment.

 

Dr. Basu has been practicing telepsychiatry since 2012. In her experience, telemedicine removes the common barriers to treatment – transportation, scheduling, and long wait times – that keep people from seeking help. It also alleviates some of the anxiety that patients feel when meeting a doctor in their office for the first time. She is committed to providing timely, high-quality medication management through Skypiatrist’s secure, HIPAA compliant video chat.

 

Dr. Basu has extensive experience in various psychiatric settings, including in-patient, outpatient, and emergency room. She treats most psychiatric disorders, including anxiety, depression, OCD, bipolar disorders, PTSD, and schizoaffective disorder. She is an avid cook, animal lover, and enjoys traveling and meeting new people whenever possible.
