Reproductive & Integrative Psychiatrist in South Jersey, with Telehealth across NJ
Specialized women's mental health care from a board-certified reproductive psychiatrist. In-person in South Jersey & via telehealth anywhere in New Jersey, by Susan Zink, MD.
When your mental health, your hormones, or your energy start to slip, your entire life feels the impact. You don't have months to spend trial-and-erroring through treatments. You need an expert who will sit with you, look at the full picture, and actually listen.
I began my journey in women's mental health at Princeton, driven by a fascination with how hormones, life transitions, and mental wellness intersect. As a mother of three daughters, I bring both clinical expertise and genuine personal perspective to the significant transitions my patients navigate.
Regardless of whether you’re located in South Jersey or anywhere across New Jersey, personalized psychiatric care is available, in person or virtually.
Warmly,
Susan Zink, MDBoard Certified Psychiatrist | Princeton - Georgetown - UC San Diego
