Dillon Hayes, MD

Welcome. I’m a psychiatrist based in New York City, where I work with professionals, entrepreneurs, and creatives who are navigating complex demands—internally and externally. My approach blends psychotherapy with medication management, tailored to each individual’s goals and challenges.

Before medical school, I studied at Cornell and began my career in finance. Over time, my interest in performance and decision-making deepened into a broader inquiry: how people grow, adapt, and come to understand themselves. That led me to medicine, and eventually to psychiatry. I completed my training in the Mount Sinai Health System and opened a private practice focused on thoughtful, effective care.

While my clinical work addresses conditions like depression, anxiety, ADHD, and burnout, the deeper aim is always the same: clarity, resilience, and a renewed sense of direction.

I also serve as an executive consultant for leaders navigating complex personal and professional terrain. For reflections on growth, perspective, and the psychology behind high performance, you can explore The Psychology of Growth, my weekly newsletter.
