Sanjay Gulati is a child psychiatrist in Massachusetts whose research revolves around people who are deaf and hard of hearing[1] and whose focus is on educating professionals working with deaf and hard of hearing populations about language deprivation syndrome.[2]


Gulati is a graduate of Eastern Virginia Medical School where he finished his residency in psychiatry at Albany Medical College, after completing his residency he then went on to hold a child psychiatry fellowship at Cambridge Hospital. Gulati works with his clients on providing guidance around developing social skills, navigating relationships with family and peers and learning to practice self-acceptance.[3] He is bilingual in American Sign Language and English and works with clients who are deaf and hard of hearing. His expertise is in language deprivation syndrome.[4][5]


Gulati served as a co-editor for Mental Health Care of Deaf People: A Culturally Affirmative Approach. [6] This text is for an audience of healthcare professionals as a guide for treating deaf patients. The book focuses on the concept of developing mental health services specifically for deaf people and emphasizing that deaf people are not disabled, but rather a cultural minority. In 2018, Gulati published Language Deprivation and Deaf Mental Health, where he examined the effects of language deprivation on deaf individuals' communication skills, comprehension, and mental health. Gulati often presents research on language deprivation to professionals.[7]
