Dr. Sajid Baig

Psychiatrist

Virtual • Princeton, NJ


Hello, I’m Dr. Sajid Baig, a board-certified psychiatrist dedicated to helping adults navigate challenges such as anxiety, depression, bipolar disorder, schizophrenia, trauma-related concerns, and co-occurring substance use issues. My approach is based on careful assessment, evidence-based treatment, and a strong commitment to understanding each person’s unique story, strengths, and goals. I’ve had the privilege of working in diverse clinical settings—including outpatient psychiatry, inpatient hospital units, correctional mental health, crisis stabilization, and addiction treatment programs. These experiences have given me a deep appreciation for how differently psychiatric conditions can present and how important it is to tailor care to each individual’s circumstances. Whether you’re seeking support for the first time or have had prior treatment, I aim to provide clear guidance, steady support, and a treatment plan that feels both effective and collaborative.

Fallon Coulombe

Therapist

Virtual • New Jersey


I’m a Licensed Professional Counselor who specializes in perinatal and maternal mental health, supporting women through pregnancy, postpartum, motherhood, and the many emotional changes that come with becoming a parent. I work with women experiencing postpartum anxiety, postpartum depression, pregnancy-related stress, maternal burnout, overwhelm, self-esteem concerns, and difficult life transitions. My goal is to provide a warm, nonjudgmental space where you can feel understood while developing practical tools to feel more grounded, confident, and connected to yourself again.

I also work with children and adolescents and bring more than seven years of experience as a school counselor into my therapy practice. I support younger clients navigating anxiety, behavioral challenges, academic stress, self-esteem, emotional regulation, social challenges, and other social-emotional concerns. My background in schools allows me to understand the many factors that can affect a child or teen both at home and in the classroom.

Whether you’re struggling to adjust to motherhood, feeling unlike yourself during pregnancy or postpartum, navigating anxiety or burnout, or looking for support for your child or teen, you don’t have to figure it out alone. Together, we’ll work toward greater understanding, healthier coping skills, and meaningful change in a space where you can feel safe, supported, and heard.
