With 165+ reviews and a 4.96 rating on Zocdoc, I have specialized in advanced medication management for complex, treatment-resistant conditions. I utilize a neurobiological approach that focuses on frontal lobe/executive functioning, nervous system dysregulation, and neurotransmitter systems to diagnose and treat various concerns - ADHD/executive dysfunction, OCD, trauma/C-PTSD, high-masking autism, personality profiles, and cases where standard medication treatments have failed. While I specialize in clinical complexity, I bring that same deep, careful attention to treating anxiety, depression, and clients starting medication for the first time.
I am a provider dedicated to empowering clients I work with through supportive health education and shared decision making. I enjoy discussing medication and therapy options. This is your health, and I want to support you in making your own informed decisions.
There is no weight/body shaming in my practice.
I gladly accept clients with neurodivergence.
I welcome all marginalized and disenfranchised individuals to my practice. I work closely with LGBTQIA+ communities especially gender diverse/trans communities. I have 23 years of experience in research and education around complex trauma/CPTSD.
As a white provider I participate in lifelong learning and activism to aid in dismantling racism in healthcare settings.

Dr. Gross graduated from Albert Einstein College of Medicine and completed an internship in pediatrics at Montefiore Medical Center. During this time, a rotation with the child psychiatry consultation-liaison team solidified his interest in psychiatry, particularly the intersection of medical care, family dynamics, and the social contexts that shape patients’ mental health. He completed his general psychiatry residency at the University of Miami, followed by a child and adolescent psychiatry fellowship at Johns Hopkins Hospital.

Find the right psychiatrist for you
Headway makes it easy to find support for your mental health — from finding the right provider, to understanding costs, to scheduling with ease.
Factors to Consider When Choosing a Therapist in New Bedford
Finding the right psychiatrist in New Bedford starts with understanding what kind of care you need. Psychiatrists are medical doctors who can diagnose mental health conditions, prescribe medication, and sometimes provide talk therapy. If you're looking for help with anxiety, depression, ADHD, bipolar disorder, or medication management, a psychiatrist may be the right fit. Psychiatric nurse practitioners (PMHNPs) can also prescribe and manage medication and are another option available through Headway.
New Bedford is home to a range of mental health providers, but confirming availability and insurance coverage can be time-consuming. Consider what matters most to you — whether that's a provider who specializes in a specific condition, offers virtual appointments, or practices near your neighborhood. Reading a provider's bio can help you understand their approach and decide if they're a good match before you book.
Psychiatry sessions in New Bedford can be expensive without insurance. Using your in-network benefits is one of the most reliable ways to lower your out-of-pocket costs. On Headway, you can enter your insurance details to see estimated session costs upfront, and many patients pay as low as $0 per visit. Nationally, Headway partners with over 100 insurance plans, making it easier to find a psychiatrist who is both the right clinical fit and covered by your plan.
