Antoine Adam, MD

I love the Klein-​Kraepelin group, and Dr Adam is emblematic of this psychiatry group. They are quite reliable, and answer my emails usually within one hour. Karolina is a dedicated receptionist and she will answer your call during office hours, and when the office is busy, I usually call back or email to Dr Adam, and he will make sure that I get a call back.
Dr Adam is an excellent psychiatrist, and he had been taking my insurance (Aetna) until recently when I switched job. He will explain everything to you from the diagnosis to your treatment plan. I find his website very useful and I have the option to prepay there. Highly recommend!

I am a school psychologist and mental health therapist. Dr. Adam has been influential to my career as a well-​read psychiatrist. He has been to many conferences around the world, and he is very eager to share in helping and enriching the lives and professions of his fellow colleagues. He is well liked by our patients at our mental health clinic. I highly recommend him as a psychiatrist!

I have been a patient of Dr Adam for two years. I was referred to him by my therapist, and after she retired, Dr Adam has been helping me with both therapy and medication management. It was a challenge initially to find the right medication for my anxiety, but he was patient and ultimately put me on the right medication.
His therapy sessions have been useful from day one. He is very good at cognitive, behavioral and humanistic approaches. He will encourage you to surpass yourself and the obstacles that you are facing. Psychiatry is a personal experience, and my experience is that Dr Adam has been extremely helpful to me. Great sense of humor and excellent artwork set the tone from the very first visit.
He does not take my insurance, and I pay him cash, and the money is well spent.

1) you can NEVER get someone one the phone here and there’s no way to leave a voicemail
2) they overcharged me by $ 275 (in cash) because their systems were out of date therefore they couldn’t track my deductible and now I can’t get anyone to pick up the phone to be reimbursed
3) I hate to sound this negative but this was hands down the most disappointing psychiatric visit I have every experienced. Dr. Adam does not LISTEN. He talks at you about obscure techniques for managing your anxiety. It was like I was at the Dr. Adam show. I teared up during our consultation for a moment while talking about something and he looked at me like I had three heads. Meanwhile I had been managing my own anxiety (as a high functioning anxious person) for several months and came to him because I had hit a wall and for him to act like it was strange to see someone tear up… just weird. Ironically, I teared up because of how disappointed I was during my visit. He kept saying things like «see…we’re really connecting» like — what on earth are you talking about? I just feel like this guy lacks the power of intuition and connection that necessary for a psychiatrist to have.
PS — I HIGHLY recommend everyone and anyone at the Williamsburg Therapy Group. They have made me realize that paying out of network is sometimes just worth it.

I am absolutely very happy to be part of this psychiatry practice that is well located, very relaxing and wonderful staff in a pre-​war building. I am very happy to be a patient of Dr. Antoine Adam who has helped me navigate through difficult times in my life. His insights and calm demeanor are amazing. Beautiful contemporary artwork and late hours that fit my schedule as I am an undergraduate student.

I have had the pleasure of working with Dr. Adam in a professional capacity. He is very engaged and motivational in his approach to treatment. Through both client feedback and professional engagement, it is evident that Dr. Adam’s passion for mental health and psychiatry centers on client mood stabilization and self-​sufficiency. This is highlighted through his collaborative efforts with both client and referring psychotherapist in order to create an appropriate treatment plan.

Dr. Adam is patient and knows just what medications you need. He is not a pill pusher and listens to your concerns. He will not give you something if you don’t feel comfortable with it. He also advises you on ways to make you feel better even without medication.

Dr Adam has been treating my daughter and myself for the past five years. He actually saved my daughters life without him I don’t know where we would be. He has been wonderful and helped us so much. Dr Adam is a unique and intelligent doctor and loves to help other people. I would recommend him to any of my family and friends.

I’ve been seeing Dr. Adam for almost a year now for ADHD. Our sessions, discussions, coupled with the right medication have helped me improve my academic performance which is where I was experiencing the most frustration. My confidence has increased as a result and I am now applying to grad school, a goal I hadn’t felt ready to pursue until now! I’ve experienced a lot of growth in the right direction thanks to Dr. Adam’s patience, understanding and mindfulness techniques. I highly recommend!

Dr Adam is a hard working psychiatrist who provides very good care to his patients. He is particularly helpful when it comes to treatment failures, and he will put his all to find the best combination of therapy and medication management to bring about positive change. He has helped me with his five-​step CBT approach along with medication. This has impacted my life in beneficial ways!

Antoine has been very helpful to the clients that we had referred to him over the past 2 years, he is both culturally and pharmacologically competent. Our clients speak very highly of him! Highly recommend!

Dr. Adam was very kind and understanding and worked with me until we had the prescription level just right. I don’t know what I would have done without him! He was never condescending of my issues and always made me feel very welcome and safe. It’s important to have a good rapport with your dr, but it’s even more so with a psychiatrist. I have had other psychiatrists and therapists talk down to me or be judgmental of my particular disorders. Dr. Adam has never made me feel that way. I’m very grateful for all his help.

I have been on medication for ADHD and anxiety for a number of years so I have seen my share of Psychiatrists. He is by far the most understanding and easy to talk to.
Dr Adam isn’t just writing out Rx’s, and leaving it up to psychologists to handle the details, he actually cares about you!
He is also very flexible and patient with me– I frequently call last minute for an appointment and he always manages to make sure I get in before I am out of medication.
Both aesthetically and energy– his office is very warm and welcoming– not clinical and cold.
Thank you Dr A for being sympathetic, professional and knowledgable!

I’ve had a life-​long struggle with ADHD, only really understanding it the last two years. A year prior to meeting Dr. Adam, I was aware of my condition but had no real way to treat it. I felt like I had no hope – countless doctors and doctor visits, psychiatrists and psychologists, no experience yielding anything fruitful. Then I met doctor Adam, who has helped me understand and manage the condition, with and without the use of medicine. If you are afflicted by ADHD and have struggled as much as I have, I would strongly urge scheduling an appointment. It’s totally worth it.

Dr. Adam is compassionate and thorough in his work. He is easy to talk to and sensitive to cultural backgrounds.

I have been going to Antoine for over a year now, because he is as kind as he is knowledgeable in his practice.
Incredibly easy to talk to, and actually cares about your progress and well being instead of just writing prescriptions and sending you on your way. Highly recommended for any individuals seeking help of the mind!

Dr Adam is very professional, attentive and extremely helpful. During the visit he answered all my questions and concerns, was very friendly, polite and open-​minded. Easy to get appointment with. Would definitely recommend him to others!
Update: I’ve been seeing Dr Adam for several years now and I should say again — he is great! The therapy has been very successful. Also his medical assistant is very professional too.

Dr Antoine Adams has been seeing my son richard who was diagnosed with autism since the age 3 for the past 2 yrs. He has prescribed all the right medications that’s been helpful for Richards condition. Dr Adams has compassion and is very attentive to Richard at office visits.

Dr Adam is a compassionate listener who has helped me a lot for the past eight months. He knows his field and seems devoted to the well-​being of his patients. He did not take my insurance, but that was not an issue because he never watched the clock when I am in session with him. Very good overall service. Highly recommend!

He is an excellent psychiatrist with a solid knowledge in psychoanalysis. We have worked collaboratively on bi– weekly visits over the past year, and thanks to his experience, his way of engaging, and insights, my mind has been set free, and I have been able to perform better in my job. Psychiatry is founded on personal experiences, and he is a doctor who understands this. He will help you deal better with frustrations, life disappointments, and shutting down.
He is also an excellent psychopharmacologist. Please note that he will not take your insurance if you are only interested in weekly psychotherapy sessions.
