About Dr. Somaia Mohamed
Dr. Somaia is an Associate Professor in the Department of Psychiatry at Yale University School of Medicine and a licensed psychologist based in the New Haven area. With extensive experience across multiple psychological schools of thought, I’ve long been captivated by the intricate workings of the mind. The connection between mind and body is profound—shaping our interactions, motivations, and emotional responses in ways we often don’t even recognize.
While some may still dismiss psychology as pseudoscience, my work has shown me the undeniable power of the mind to influence both our physical and emotional well-being. The phrase “mind over matter” isn’t just a cliché—it reflects the extraordinary ways our thoughts can shape our lives.
Whether you're facing a significant life stressor, navigating a mental health challenge, or simply seeking guidance on how to move forward with clarity and purpose, you're in the right place.
I, Dr. Somaia provide several different psychological services in New Haven including, Posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD), obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD), attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), seasonal affective disorder (SAD), generalized anxiety disorder (GAD) hypochondria, and various phobias. I also offer numerous counseling services to New Haven clients, including nutritional, family, adolescent, individual, divorce, couples, stress, anger, sexual abuse, women’s, self-esteem, and career counseling and therapy.
Please contact me, Dr. Somaia today to learn more about the psychological and counseling services I provide and how I might be able to help you. The brain is a highly malleable organ that can eliminate maladaptive behavioral or thinking patterns with ongoing cognitive behavioral therapy, conditioning or by uncovering and confronting negative unconscious processes. There is always hope. Always.
