Bipolar Disorder Psychiatrists in Ohio

I am a double board-certified Child and Adolescent and Adult Psychiatrist specializing in the well-being of children, adolescents, and young adults. A staunch advocate for evidence-based approaches, I integrate lifestyle and pharmacological interventions to foster mental health resilience among my patients. I am particularly passionate about the shared decision-making model, which enhances patient empowerment and satisfaction by actively involving patients in their treatment plans. My approach is deeply holistic, informed by my training in integrative medicine and my personal commitment to wellness.

I currently serve in St. Louis, MO, where I am known for my dynamic leadership as a Medical Director and my robust clinical practice. Throughout my career, I have held pivotal roles, including Medical Director of Crisis Psychiatry Services at Mercy Hospital and key positions in several reputable outpatient clinics across the U.S. My clinical acumen spans a diverse range of settings, from private practice and crisis care to specialized programs in residential and educational institutions. Complementing my medical expertise, I hold a Juris Doctorate, with a focus on public health and social policy, which enriches my understanding of the legal and systemic aspects of healthcare.

My academic contributions are equally notable. I have developed educational curriculums that significantly improve health outcomes and have shared my expertise through numerous media appearances and professional talks. My commitment to medical education is reflected in my mentorship of nurse practitioners and my involvement in creating community psychiatry programs.

On a personal level, I practice wellness through nutrition, exercise, and travel with my family. My professional journey is driven by a commitment to optimizing mental health outcomes and enhancing the quality of life for my patients and their families.

I treat patients of various ages, and in addition to medication management I am a strong proponent of therapy in various forms. My approach to the treatment of adults and children/adolescents incorporates the impact of various things such as family history of mental health/medical conditions as well as any adverse childhood experiences/trauma. In addition to screening for common conditions such as bipolar disorder, anxiety, and depression in all patients, I also emphasize the importance of screening for conditions that can manifest in childhood (such as ADHD, Autism) as well as first-episode psychosis in young adults. From the initial visit and onward, I prioritize a collaborative effort with my patients (and at times their families). In addition to medication adjustments, I emphasize the importance of optimizing additional tools such as therapy while making appropriate lifestyle changes. During every follow-up visit, I take care to ensure that the current treatment is not hindering my patient's progress in any way.

I am board certified in both General Psychiatry and Child and Adolescent Psychiatry. I completed my undergraduate studies at Stony Brook University and attended medical school at the American University of Integrative Sciences. I also hold an MBA from Davenport University. I completed my psychiatry residency training at Bergen New Bridge Medical Center, followed by a fellowship in Child and Adolescent Psychiatry at University Hospitals Cleveland Medical Center/Case Western Reserve University, where I served as Chief Fellow. Prior to joining Talkiatry, I trained and worked across a combination of various healthcare systems in New York, New Jersey, Ohio, and Kentucky.

What has motivated me over the course of my career as a caregiver? I am a native Houstonian who grew up in a working-class community. Through curiosity and hard work, I was able to attend a university that included people of vastly different life experiences. I was molded by both communities to appreciate the commonalities of humanity. That broad exposure extended my empathetic spectrum to grasp the needs of the American diaspora.

I use a biopsychosocial approach to evaluate the patient. I gather patient history with a mindset that considers the neuroscience that chemically shapes mood, thoughts, and behavior. I am able to uncover factors that can inhibit psychological growth and development. I have experience in seeing how the social conditions of the œthen can influence the resiliency of the œnow. I appreciate, and am proficient in, advances in technology, but prioritize the analog relationship between doctor and patient.

Meeting people where they are. It is an old trope, but describes how one allows a patient to set the path forward. An open-ended interview is conducted with an open mind towards resolution. When being evaluated and treated by me, a patient can expect to be met in a cordial but professional manner. Treatments are discussed and considered based on the mental state of the patient and the clinical efficacy and scientific evidence of benefit. The patient is invited to ask questions and consider whether they wish to pursue the suggested treatment plan.

I specialize in treating a broad range of psychiatric conditions, notably mood and anxiety disorders. I integrate medication management with a holistic, personalized approach to treatment, emphasizing the interconnectedness of mind, body, and spirit. I believe in tailoring treatment plans individually, combining therapy and medications to suit each patient's unique needs, and I highlight the importance of healthy relationships in achieving overall mental health.

I am a board-certified psychiatrist. I earned my medical degree from Touro University Nevada and completed my residency at Unity Health White County Medical Center. I further specialized by completing a fellowship in Consultation-Liaison Psychiatry at the Cleveland Clinic, where I gained extensive experience working within multidisciplinary healthcare teams, particularly focused on psychiatric care for patients with complex medical conditions.

Patients visiting me for the first time can expect a comprehensive and personalized assessment that explores not just their psychiatric symptoms but their overall well-being and personal relationships. I prioritize a holistic evaluation, carefully balancing medication considerations and therapeutic interventions tailored specifically to each patient's situation and goals. I create an empathetic, collaborative atmosphere to discuss and develop personalized plans for mental and emotional wellness.

My practice focuses on child and adolescent medication management. I typically offer this in conjunction with supportive or emotionally focused therapy in 30-minute follow-up visits. Occasionally, however, I may believe that additional therapy is needed and will ask that you bring a therapist into your care team to provide the best outcome. I provide treatment plans that include holistic recommendations for diet, exercise, and educational and psychosocial/spiritual aspects of care. I am known for listening to and respecting patients' stories and walking them on a path of recovery and growth.

Prior to attending medical school, I practiced for 14 years in physical therapy with a specialization in children with developmental and neurological disabilities. I have held multiple positions in hospital and outpatient psychiatry, including community mental health, developmental and foster care settings, and medical director positions. I have also served as clinical faculty for both the Wright State Department of Psychiatry and the University of Cincinnati School of Medicine.

I take a warm, collaborative, and nonjudgmental approach to care, and my goal is to create a safe and supportive space where patients feel heard and empowered to take an active role in their treatment, using a combination of supportive psychotherapy and medication management.

I am a general psychiatrist who holds a bachelor's degree in psychology. I completed my psychiatry training at the University of Miami Miller School of Medicine.

During the first few sessions, I will take time to get to know the patient, their history, current concerns, and what they hope to achieve through treatment. Together, we will develop a comprehensive plan that may include psychiatric medications and supportive therapy. Follow-up visits are typically focused on checking in, adjusting treatments if necessary, and continuing to build on progress.

I then completed my residency at Loyola University Medical Center in Chicago, Illinois, where a significant focus was treating veterans at the Edward Hines VA Hospital. My experience spans both rural and urban settings, providing me with a comprehensive approach to mental health care. During my training, I received awards for Excellence in Professionalism and COVID Surge efforts.

I believe that each individual's background plays a significant role in their mental health, and that understanding a patient's personal story is critical to their healing journey. I believe in a respectful, collaborative relationship built on trust and open communication. While I integrate evidence-based medication management when clinically appropriate, I also emphasize the therapeutic benefit of addressing lifestyle, relationships, and internal narratives. I begin care with a thorough evaluation, exploring developmental history, impactful life events, and emotional patterns. From there, I develop a comprehensive treatment plan that may include medications, wellness strategies, and therapist collaboration. I consider each patient's strengths and challenges to guide care that promotes long-term recovery and personal growth.

I completed an intern year in Family Medicine at the University of Arkansas for Medical Sciences West. I hold a bachelor's degree in chemistry and biology from the University of Arkansas, where I graduated with honors.

Outside of work, I enjoy hiking, backpacking, visiting national parks, and spending time with my senior dog.

I like to work with patients on a customized treatment plan with active patient participation. Treatment goals are defined and updated as needed in follow-up visits. I encourage my patients to ask questions and learn more about their condition; communication and education are essential for treatment success. My areas of interest include mood and anxiety disorders, cognitive and neuropsychiatric disorders, PTSD, bipolar disorder, OCD, psychopharmacology, treatment-resistant conditions (depression), and psychoeducation to improve treatment compliance.

I joined Talkiatry as a general adult psychiatrist. I earned my medical degree from the Faculty of Medicine, University of Cairo, Egypt, and completed my residency in general psychiatry at Case Western Reserve University and MetroHealth Medical Center in Cleveland, Ohio. I have practiced psychiatry for 30 years in a variety of settings: hospitals, inpatient and consultation-liaison to other medical services, private practice, and outpatient care treating adults, geriatric patients, and adolescents. I have also provided geropsychiatric consultations to long-term care facilities and assisted living.

For new patients, I will conduct an initial evaluation; providing treatment records can be helpful. I will share treatment options with the patient and create a custom treatment plan. Follow-up appointments are scheduled every two weeks at the beginning of treatment.

I bring a casual, easygoing communication style to create a comfortable space where patients feel at ease. I emphasize forming strong therapeutic bonds based on trust, and I combine supportive therapy with medication management. I encourage collaboration with therapists and use evidence-based treatment approaches tailored to each individual's needs.

I am a psychiatrist specializing in adult and maternal mental health. I develop personalized treatment plans to address anxiety, depression, bipolar disorder, ADHD, OCD, PTSD, PMDD, and perinatal conditions. My goal is to help patients reconnect with their values and live balanced, fulfilled, and meaningful lives. I combine pharmacotherapy (medication) with psychotherapy to create individualized treatment plans. Therapy provides powerful tools to manage thoughts, emotions, and behaviors that support balanced brain chemistry, and research shows that medication helps restore this balance more quickly and effectively, especially in moderate to severe cases.

I liken medication for the brain to fertilizer for a garden. Imagine your mental health as a vibrant garden: when well-nourished, it can thrive with resilience, beauty, and balance. But when symptoms like depression, anxiety, ADHD, or mood instability take hold, they act like invasive weeds, crowding out healthy growth and making it hard to enjoy the space. Medication acts like fertilizer, strengthening the garden's natural systems so the healthy parts can reclaim their place and flourish. Just as some gardens need only seasonal care while others require more consistent tending, medication plans are personalized to support each person's long-term mental wellness. My approach emphasizes diagnostic clarity, medication management, patient education, and brief psychotherapy based on cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) and acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT). I believe patients should take an active role in understanding their diagnosis and treatment.

Your first appointment is a supportive, in-depth conversation to share your story, challenges, and goals. I will review your medical and psychiatric history and assess symptoms using a whole-person approach that considers biological, psychological, and social factors. Together, we will develop a personalized plan that may include lab work, medication, and therapy. Initial visits last 60 minutes for thorough evaluation; follow-ups typically last 20–30 minutes, focusing on medication management and brief therapy. If needed, I can refer you to in-house or community therapists for add-on therapy support. Throughout your care, I prioritize shared decision making to ensure you feel informed, empowered, and supported.

My passion for medicine began in childhood, inspired by curiosity about the mind and body.

With a strong scientific foundation, I understand the role of medications and embrace holistic healing through connection, gratitude, and spirituality. I have experience in diverse clinical settings and have received national awards including the AWP International Fellowship and ADMSEP Innovations Award. I am dedicated to advancing maternal mental health screening and treatment through clinical care and education.

I employ empathic listening, supportive psychotherapy techniques, and a comprehensive and methodological approach to my visits. Given my broad and diverse training experiences, I enjoy problem solving and working collaboratively with patients to navigate their complex issues and jointly focusing on simple solutions to work towards improving their mental health. I have experience working with adults of all ages, particularly those with depression, anxiety, bipolar disorder, substance use disorders, PTSD, and more.

I am a board certified adult psychiatrist and burgeoning Geriatric Psychiatrist. After completing my undergraduate education at Florida State University, I attended medical school at the University of Miami Miller School of Medicine, where I graduated with a combined M.D./M.S. in Genomic Medicine. I subsequently completed psychiatry residency at Jackson Health System/University of Miami and further subspecialized with a fellowship in Geriatric Psychiatry.

I have had the opportunity of working with a diverse array of patients including veterans, inmates, the severely mentally ill, geriatric, and cancer patients across three distinct hospital systems. My clinical experiences have spanned specialty inpatient psychiatry units (detox, geriatric, mood disorder), emergency psychiatry, consultation liaison psychiatry, psycho-oncology, and outpatient specialty clinics (HIV, dementia, integrative and collaborative care) via telemedicine and face to face interactions.

My therapeutic approach is client-centered and strengths-based, emphasizing collaboration and empowerment. I believe in creating a safe and supportive environment where clients can explore their concerns, gain insight, and develop skills to cope effectively with life's challenges. My clinical approach is to utilize the treatment model that best fits the unique needs of each individual. I strive to be sensitive to the various factors that might impact a person's identity, such as culture, ethnicity, disability, neurodivergence, or being part of the LGBTQ+ community. My work is informed by several different modalities, including CBT, DBT, IFS, and Mindfulness-based interventions. I have experience treating many mental health conditions such as Anxiety, Depression, Bipolar disorder, Trauma, Anger, Grief, and PTSD.

I am an LCSW in New York with 18 years of experience in human service and nonprofit organizations. My recent work was at a community-based mental health clinic, where I worked with people of all ages and with various goals for counseling.
