At her private psychiatry practice on the Upper East Side of Manhattan in New York City, Eileen DiFrancesco, MD, cares for people ages 12 and older in a welcoming, compassionate setting. 

Dr. DiFrancesco is a skilled, board-certified psychiatrist who also specializes in neurology. She takes a traditional, integrative approach to treating patients for common mental health conditions. Her philosophy is that a healthy brain is key for well-being, balance, and optimal functioning. Making an accurate diagnosis is the most important first step in treating patients. Treatment must be tailored to the needs of each individual. She recognizes that both genetics and environment contribute to mental health and illness; genetics predispose individuals to certain mental disorders; however, parenting, peer integration, environment, and life experiences all factor in to determine the outcome. An assessment of all of these factors is used to create a treatment plan for each individual.

She graduated with honors with a bachelor’s degree from the University of Pennsylvania in Philadelphia. Dr. DiFrancesco received her medical degree at the Lewis Katz School of Medicine at Temple University in Philadelphia, where she had additional training in neurology and psychology. 

She completed residency training at Mount Sinai Medical Center in New York City. Afterward, she worked as a medical director of the Learning Laboratory, a private facility in Connecticut.

Dr. DiFrancesco specializes in diagnosing and treating addictions, depression, bipolar disorder and other mood disorders, anxiety disorders, and attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD). She also has expertise in treating sexual dysfunction, eating disorders, schizophrenia, and sleep disorders, as well as obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD) in adults and children.

Dr. DiFrancesco offers comprehensive psychiatric evaluations, genetic testing, brain imaging, psychotherapy, and more. As part of her consultative services, she provides a complete analysis of a patient’s brain health to minimize environmental and genetic contributors to mental illnesses. As a medical doctor specializing in psychiatry and psychopharmacology, Dr. DiFrancesco is able to prescribe medication for mental disorders. The decision to medicate a patient is very serious and requires an intensive understanding of the individual and the underlying neurobiology. 

Dr. DiFrancesco is active in her community and has received many awards for outstanding leadership and commitment to the psychiatry profession. She’s an honored member of the International Association of Top Professionals (IAOTP). 

She received Top Doctor of the Year in Psychiatry and Neurology, Top Female Visionary of the Year, Top Female Executive and has been featured in Top Industry Professionals Magazine, Humanitarian of the Year, Top Doctor of the Year, Top 10 Doctor by State, Patients’ Choice Award, Most Compassionate Doctor Award, Outstanding Professional of the Year, and many other esteemed lists.

Dr. DiFrancesco is also a lifetime member of America’s Registry of Outstanding Professionals based on achievement, leadership, and dedication to her profession.

My style is guided by warmth and flexibility, with the goals of helping patients build insight and reduce symptoms.
