Introduction

I’m Dr. Sammy Khader, MD, an adult psychiatrist and founder of Cater Psychiatry. I also serve as Medical Director of Behavioral Health at a hospital, where I oversee both inpatient and outpatient psychiatric services and lead multidisciplinary treatment teams. In this role, I supervise nurse practitioners and collaborate closely with therapists, nurses, and medical staff to ensure high-quality, safe, and effective care across all levels of treatment. In my private practice, I provide personalized, evidence-based care for adults experiencing depression, anxiety, bipolar disorder, trauma-related conditions, and other mental health concerns. My approach combines thoughtful medication management with supportive therapy in a compassionate, judgment-free environment. I focus on clear communication, practical treatment plans, and helping patients regain stability, confidence, and control of their lives.
