Comprehensive Psychiatric Services in Hamilton, NJ
At Hamilton Psychiatric Services, we believe that mental health care should be as individualized as the person seeking it. Led by Dr. Mirza, a board-certified psychiatrist with more than 30 years of clinical experience, our practice in Hamilton, NJ provides a full spectrum of psychiatric services — from an initial diagnostic evaluation all the way through long-term treatment, advanced therapies, and convenient telehealth visits.
Comprehensive psychiatric care means more than simply prescribing medication or scheduling weekly sessions. It means taking the time to understand your complete story: your symptoms, your medical history, your life circumstances, and your goals. It means coordinating with your primary care doctor, specialists, and therapists so that every member of your care team is working in the same direction. And it means revisiting your treatment plan regularly so that it keeps pace with your progress.
Whether you are seeking help for the first time or have been living with a psychiatric condition for years, Hamilton Psychiatric Services offers the expertise, technology, and compassionate attention you deserve. Below you will find an overview of every service we offer, along with a brief description of who we treat, what makes our practice different, and how to get started.
Psychiatric Evaluation and Treatment
Every effective treatment plan begins with an accurate diagnosis. A psychiatric evaluation at Hamilton Psychiatric is a thorough, unhurried conversation between you and Dr. Mirza. During this initial appointment, Dr. Mirza reviews your presenting symptoms, personal and family psychiatric history, current medications, and relevant medical conditions. He may also coordinate with your primary care physician or request laboratory work to rule out underlying medical causes of psychiatric symptoms.
The evaluation results in a clear diagnosis and a personalized treatment roadmap. Conditions commonly diagnosed and treated at our practice include depression, bipolar disorder, anxiety disorders, OCD, PTSD, ADHD, schizophrenia, and personality disorders, among others. Starting with an accurate evaluation means every subsequent treatment decision is built on solid ground.
Medication Management
Psychiatric medications can be life-changing — but only when they are selected carefully, monitored closely, and adjusted over time. Medication management at Hamilton Psychiatric goes well beyond writing a prescription. Dr. Mirza reviews the full range of available medications for your diagnosis, considers your individual physiology and history of medication responses, and starts with the approach most likely to be effective and well-tolerated.
Follow-up appointments allow Dr. Mirza to evaluate how you are responding, manage any side effects, and make evidence-based adjustments. If you have tried multiple medications without adequate relief — a situation known as treatment-resistant illness — Dr. Mirza has the expertise to explore augmentation strategies and advanced options including Deep TMS. Medication management is available both in-person in Hamilton and via secure telehealth visits throughout New Jersey.
Psychotherapy
Talk therapy remains one of the most powerful tools in psychiatry, and for many conditions it is the cornerstone of recovery. At Hamilton Psychiatric Services, psychotherapy is offered as a standalone treatment or in combination with medication, depending on your clinical needs. Dr. Mirza draws on evidence-based modalities including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), supportive therapy, and insight-oriented approaches to help patients identify unhelpful thought patterns, build coping skills, and work through past experiences that continue to affect the present.
Whether you are navigating a difficult life transition, working through grief, managing a chronic psychiatric condition, or simply trying to function better day to day, psychotherapy provides a structured, confidential space to do that work with an experienced guide. Therapy sessions can be conducted in person at our Hamilton, NJ office or via telehealth.
Deep TMS Therapy (FDA-Approved)
For patients whose depression, OCD, or other conditions have not responded adequately to medication, BrainsWay Deep Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (Deep TMS) offers a proven, non-invasive alternative. Hamilton Psychiatric is proud to be one of the select practices in New Jersey offering the BrainsWay Deep TMS system — the most clinically studied form of TMS available today.
Deep TMS uses gentle magnetic pulses to stimulate the neural circuits responsible for mood regulation, reaching deeper brain structures than conventional TMS devices. Treatments are outpatient, require no anesthesia, and last approximately 20 minutes. Most patients complete a course of 36 sessions over six to seven weeks. Clinical studies show meaningful response rates in patients who have failed two or more antidepressant trials. BrainsWay Deep TMS is FDA-cleared for major depressive disorder and OCD, and Dr. Mirza has extensive experience guiding patients through the full course of treatment.

Telehealth Services
Quality psychiatric care should not depend on whether you can make it to an office. Hamilton Psychiatric Services offers secure telehealth appointments for patients throughout New Jersey, allowing you to meet with Dr. Mirza from the comfort and privacy of your own home. Telehealth visits are ideal for follow-up medication management appointments, ongoing psychotherapy, and initial consultations when in-person travel is not practical.
Our telehealth platform is HIPAA-compliant and easy to use — all you need is a smartphone, tablet, or computer with a camera. Telehealth appointments carry the same level of clinical attention as in-person visits, and many patients find that the reduced travel burden makes it easier to maintain consistent care. Whether you live in Hamilton, Trenton, Princeton, or anywhere else in New Jersey, we are here for you.
Surgical Clearances
Many surgical procedures — including bariatric surgery, spinal cord stimulator (SCS) implants, and other elective surgeries — require a psychiatric clearance before a patient can proceed. These evaluations assess psychological readiness, identify any untreated psychiatric conditions that could affect surgical outcomes, and ensure the patient has a realistic understanding of the procedure and recovery process.
Dr. Mirza provides thorough, timely psychiatric surgical clearance evaluations that meet the documentation requirements of hospitals and surgical centers throughout New Jersey. If you have been referred for a pre-surgical psychiatric evaluation, our office can typically schedule your appointment promptly so you are not delayed on your surgical timeline.
Second Opinion Consultation
If you have received a psychiatric diagnosis or treatment recommendation and want an independent expert review, Dr. Mirza offers second opinion consultations. A second opinion is not a criticism of your current provider — it is a responsible step when facing a complex diagnosis, considering a significant change in treatment, or simply wanting to feel more confident about the direction of your care.
During a second opinion consultation, Dr. Mirza carefully reviews your records, listens to your concerns, and provides his independent clinical assessment. He will explain his findings clearly and either confirm the existing plan or offer alternative diagnostic considerations and treatment options. Second opinion consultations are available in-person and via telehealth.

What Makes Hamilton Psychiatric Services Different
There are many psychiatric practices in New Jersey, and choosing the right one is an important decision. Here is what sets Hamilton Psychiatric Services apart:
30+ Years of Board-Certified Expertise
Dr. Mirza is a board-certified psychiatrist who has been practicing in Hamilton, NJ for over three decades. That depth of experience means he has seen a vast range of presentations, navigated complex cases, and refined his clinical judgment in ways that only come with time. Patients benefit from evidence-based medicine delivered with the nuance that experience provides.
BrainsWay Deep TMS — Advanced Technology On-Site
Most psychiatric practices offer medication management and therapy. Far fewer offer on-site FDA-approved Deep TMS. By housing this technology in our Hamilton office, Dr. Mirza can seamlessly integrate TMS into a patient's overall treatment plan — adjusting protocols based on real-time response rather than coordinating with a separate facility. For patients with treatment-resistant depression or OCD, this integrated approach can be the difference between continued struggle and meaningful recovery.
A Whole-Person Approach
Dr. Mirza does not treat diagnoses in isolation. He considers the full context of your life: your relationships, your physical health, your work and family stressors, and your values and preferences. Treatment plans at Hamilton Psychiatric are collaborative — developed with you, not handed down to you. We take the time to explain your diagnosis, discuss the rationale for each treatment recommendation, and adjust course when something is not working.
Continuity of Care
When you come to Hamilton Psychiatric, you see Dr. Mirza — not a different provider at every visit. That continuity builds trust, allows for more accurate monitoring of your progress, and ensures that the person making decisions about your care actually knows you well.
