The Haven and its staff of interdisciplinary professionals treats patients across a broad developmental lifespan from young adults to the elderly and is a sought out treatment destination for patients of local, national and international locales. Under the direction of Dr. Kotbi, the Haven has grown to acclaim for its focus on highly individualized patient care within a culturally sensitive framework. Dr. Kotbi developed a comprehensive patient approach in collaboration with his clinical treatment team, which includes diagnostic assessment, evidence-based psychotherapeutic and psychopharmacologic treatment and collaborative care planning.In 2010, Dr. Kotbi was also appointed Unit Chief of the Addiction Recovery and Rehabilitation unit of the Weill Cornell Medicine/NYP Westchester Campus, which specializes in the treatment of individuals suffering from primary substance use disorders.

He also contributes to the education of nursing staff and others by regularly presenting on evidence-based treatments related to psychiatric and addiction related disorders, psychosocial interventions and psychopharmacological agents.Dr Kotbi has been active in clinical research since he joined the faculty at Weill Cornell Medicine. He was a co-investigator in studies of psychotic depression and late-life affective disorders and trials on the long term effects of ECT as a research clinician.
