He later begged her to retract a complaint she made to authorities. The tribunal chairman said his actions were not "easily remediable".
The tribunal heard Dr Osborne emailed the woman to say she would "destroy me and my family" after she complained to the General Medical Council (GMC). Dr Nigel Callaghan said Dr Osborne's behaviour "undermines the public's confidence in the medical profession".
It was also told the woman had tried to take her own life two days after Dr Osborne, who is married, ended their relationship. 'I will make sure you pay'
The psychiatrist had treated the woman for depression, anxiety and chronic fatigue at a private practice in London, between 2011 and 2014.
The tribunal heard Dr Osborne had begged, then threatened the woman after she complained to the General Medical Council (GMC) when he ended the relationship.
In one email he wrote: "If I get into trouble for this then I will never forgive you for this and I will make sure you pay."
Dr Callaghan said Dr Osborne had sent "inappropriate emails" when he knew the woman was in "a particularly vulnerable and fragile state".
The tribunal previously heard she had tried to take her own life two days after they broke up.
It will now decide whether to impose a sanction on the psychiatrist.
If they do, Dr Osborne could have conditions put on his registration, be suspended or be struck off.
