I offer a highly personalized approach, in a joint effort to help attain your treatment goals. What about medication vs. psychotherapy? This is based on a misunderstanding of what we call "the mind". People are biological, as well as psychological and social beings, and as such, feelings, thoughts and feelings are the product, not only of one's experiences in life, but also of one's brain biology. Since that's the case, we know that there are biological, psychological, and social contributing factors (in varying proportions). Because of this, optimal treatment involves sorting out to what extent each of these factors is contributing, and then addressing them. As a psychiatric physician (M.D.), I am in a good position to help you with these without referring you to someone else for medication if needed..
