This broad range of experience allows me to provide comprehensive, individualized care to patients at all stages of life.

Patients can anticipate a thorough initial evaluation during their first visit with me. I conduct a comprehensive assessment to understand the patient's symptoms, history, and personal circumstances. This session sets the foundation for collaboratively developing an individualized treatment plan focused on the patient's specific needs and goals.

I specialize in treating depression and anxiety. I acknowledge that while medications can be necessary, they are not magic, and a holistic approach is essential for achieving mental health. With this understanding, I spend time getting to know my patients, focusing on helping them achieve mental wellness rather than simply prescribing medications. When I became a doctor, I made a pledge to "do no harm." I take this commitment seriously and only prescribe medications, especially those with addictive properties, when it is safe and clearly indicated.

The first one or two appointments focus on a thorough assessment to establish a provisional diagnosis, which is essential for effective treatment planning. Once this initial diagnosis is made, I collaborate with my patients to develop tailored treatment recommendations. During follow-up appointments, I actively listen to my patients and propose adjustments to the treatment plan as needed.

I am a board-certified psychiatrist who strives to understand my patients' lived experiences and aspirations to develop supportive therapeutic relationships through empathetic listening, mutual trust, and respect. I collaboratively create individualized care plans that align with personal treatment goals in a safe and judgment-free environment.

After completing my Bachelor of Science degree in Human Biology with a focus in psychology from the University of California, Merced, I earned my medical degree from Lake Erie College of Osteopathic Medicine. I completed my General Psychiatry Residency at Arnot Ogden Medical Center in New York.

My clinical experience involves treating individuals of all age groups from diverse populations and socioeconomic backgrounds suffering from anxiety, depression, bipolar disorder, psychotic disorders, neurodevelopmental disorders, and neurocognitive disorders. I have provided care in inpatient and outpatient psychiatric facilities, the Veterans Affairs Medical Center, emergency rooms, state facilities, and an inpatient chemical dependency center. I also performed pre-procedure psychological evaluations for bariatric and spinal cord surgeries, and psychiatric consult liaison services on medical units, and I have clinical training in inpatient and outpatient neurology.

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. I earned an Honors Chemistry degree with magna cum laude and completed my medical training and psychiatry residency at Texas Tech University Health Sciences Center. 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 took an adventurous path to Talkiatry. After perhaps thinking a little too hard about Intro to Philosophy in college — "the unexamined life is not worth living" — I first used my chemistry degree to work in pharmaceutical research. I changed course, working in computer network engineering, before deciding to find a more meaningful path. I worked as an EMT, then earned a Master's in Physiology before finally landing in medical school at Ohio State.

Finding a surprising interest in psychiatry, I stayed at Ohio State for residency, and then a fellowship in forensic psychiatry. I am board-certified in both Psychiatry and Forensic Psychiatry. I previously worked as a forensic psychiatrist and evaluator at Ohio's maximum-security state psychiatric facility, as an attending psychiatrist running an inpatient unit for violent or dangerous patients, performing court-ordered evaluations, writing reports, and testifying when necessary. I have also worked as a consultation-liaison psychiatrist, performing psychiatric consults at several general hospitals in Central Ohio's largest hospital system.

I found great enjoyment in teaching successive generations of residents and medical students, serving as an adjunct faculty member at Ohio State, Ohio University, Wright State, and OhioHealth Riverside Methodist Hospital. I am excited for the next chapter of my journey, exploring another area of psychiatry at Talkiatry.

I specialize in medication management but take a holistic, patient-centered approach that integrates supportive therapy, cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT), and motivational interviewing (MI). I have extensive experience treating depression, bipolar disorder, generalized anxiety, panic disorder, social anxiety, OCD, insomnia, and substance use disorders. I am particularly skilled in treating college students and individuals navigating difficult life transitions. If more in-depth therapy is needed, I may refer patients to a therapist as part of a comprehensive care plan.

I am a board-certified psychiatrist licensed in Adult Psychiatry. I earned my bachelor's degree from Ohio State University and my medical degree from Wright State University Boonshoft School of Medicine. I completed my psychiatry training at Stony Brook University Hospital, where I served as chief resident and was awarded the William Turner Award for outstanding performance in psychiatry residency. I have extensive experience treating diverse populations, including vulnerable and underserved communities, having worked as an outpatient psychiatrist at Bellevue Hospital for two years.

During the first visit, patients can expect a thorough and compassionate evaluation, where I carefully assess symptoms, history, and treatment goals. I prioritize collaboration and individualized treatment planning, ensuring that patients feel comfortable and supported in their mental health care. Follow-up visits are typically 30 minutes and focus on medication management and therapy integration, with referrals to additional therapy when needed for the best possible outcome.

I am a board-certified addiction psychiatrist with a patient-centric approach and nonjudgmental, easy-going attitude. My treatment philosophy centers on empowering patients to heal holistically, body, mind, spirit, and relationships, ensuring each individual receives tailored and evidence-based care. I excel in treating both psychiatric and addiction disorders, utilizing a broad array of therapeutic modalities, including psychiatric medications, supportive therapy, cognitive-behavioral therapy, dialectical behavior therapy, psychodynamic-based therapy, prolonged exposure therapy, and motivational enhancement therapy. I typically offer 60-minute new visits and 30-minute follow-up visits.

I completed my medical school and residency training at Loma Linda University in Southern California, where I was recognized by my colleagues as Chief Resident of inpatient services for my leadership and problem-solving abilities. My passion for caring for people with substance use disorders led me to complete specialized training in Addiction Psychiatry at the University of Washington in 2024.

Dr. David Schlager is a board-certified psychiatrist with extensive experience across inpatient, outpatient, and telemedicine settings. He specializes in treating depression and bipolar disorders, anxiety and sleep disorders, ADHD, and mental health issues associated with complex medical conditions or co-occurring substance use concerns. Dr. Schlager earned his medical degree from Tufts University School of Medicine, completed his psychiatry residency at Mount Sinai Hospital in New York City, and completed a research fellowship at Columbia University/New York State Psychiatric Institute, where he later conducted research focused on seasonal depression and sleep disorders.

Over long years of practice Dr. Schlager has witnessed, and so in every new case aims for, marked improvement in both emotional distress and day to day function. He is known for being attentive, compassionate, and nonjudgmental and eagerly supports Talkiatry's mission to provide expert mental health care by reducing geographic and insurance obstacles that traditionally limited access.

Dr. Schlager begins by listening openly to each patient's story, including any past experiences of trauma that may be contributing to their current distress. Interviews progress from conversational overview to more specific and problem focused discussion. Diagnosis and treatment response are often best determined by what patients report rather than by conventional blood testing or imaging. As such, he takes care at every stage to help patients articulate their condition and specific concerns, to recognize their meaning in a psychological and social context, and to regularly update goals of care.

Dr. Brian Schultz earned his PhD in Molecular and Cellular Biology and his MD from the University of Washington. He completed his psychiatry residency at Northwestern University in Chicago and is board-certified in adult psychiatry. Dr. Schultz has served on the teaching and clinical faculties of the University of Hawai‘i and the University of Washington. His experience includes inpatient psychiatry, outpatient community clinics, cancer treatment centers, and psychiatric consultation in hospital medical settings. He has treated patients from college age through late life and, as the spouse of an active-duty military service member, understands many aspects of military family life.

Dr. Schultz engages with patients in a casual, conversational style and believes that medication, when appropriate, is only one part of a comprehensive treatment plan. He strives to create a supportive, non-judgmental environment where patients feel comfortable sharing their experiences, concerns, and goals. He values honest, open communication and welcomes discussions of the gray areas of diagnosis and treatment. Dr. Schultz encourages active participation in the healing process and tailors care to each individual’s unique story.

Dr. Schultz begins by listening to each patient’s concerns, experiences, goals, and history, followed by a discussion of clinical impressions and treatment options. He uses an evidence-based approach to develop personalized treatment plans, recommending medication when indicated and incorporating other strategies such as cognitive and behavioral techniques. Dr. Schultz collaborates with other healthcare providers when appropriate and recommends additional behavioral health resources when beneficial. Ongoing follow-up focuses on assessing progress and adjusting treatment to support patients’ goals.

I focus on two main approaches to mental health treatment: medication management and psychotherapy. Appointments focus on a mix of interactions aimed at tailoring each patient's specific medication needs as well as promoting mental health wellness through different types of evidence-based therapy techniques including mindfulness, CBT, CPT, and psychodynamic psychotherapy. I work together with patients to develop a plan that fits each patient's individual needs. Initial appointments focus on identifying and treating primary concerns, and then later appointments center on building upon the therapeutic relationship to increase self-awareness, promote emotional insight, and secure lasting positive mental health changes.

I am a board-certified psychiatrist that specializes in the treatment of depression, anxiety, PTSD, bipolar disorder, schizophrenia, personality disorders, and ADHD. I have also worked extensively with patients that have experienced sexual trauma in their past and patients struggling with substance and alcohol use addictions. I completed medical school at the University of Nevada School of Medicine and then went on to complete psychiatry residency training at Naval Medical Center San Diego.

I am a board-certified adult psychiatrist who has been in practice for over 4 years. I specialize in medication management with 30-minute follow-up visits. This may be accompanied by elements of supportive therapy, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), and psychodynamic therapy. If more in-depth work is needed, I may refer patients to a collaborating psychotherapist.

I received my medical degree from Texas A&M Health Science Center and completed my psychiatry residency training at the University of Texas Southwestern in Dallas, Texas. I have served as faculty at Texas A&M University College of Medicine, providing education and supervision for psychiatry residents and medical students. I have experience treating adult patients from many walks of life with a broad range of diagnoses, including depression, anxiety, bipolar disorder, ADHD, and trauma-related disorders.

I have a passion for providing excellent patient care and education. My goal is for patients to feel heard and find a safe place to discuss their concerns. I am motivated to work collaboratively with patients to find a solution that best fits their treatment goals and improves their overall quality of life.

At the heart of my clinical approach is a strong emphasis on establishing trust, rapport, and therapeutic alliance to help persons to feel and live well and to progress toward their goals, both in treatment and in life. I begin with consultation, a compassionate, collaborative process of discovery that culminates in a working diagnostic impression and, in turn, treatment recommendations. For those with whom I engage in a treatment relationship, I provide psychoeducation, medication management, and individual psychotherapy, this last modality predominantly drawing from both psychodynamic and behavioral psychological models to tailor treatment to each patient. On some occasions, I may believe that additional therapy is needed and ask that you bring a therapist into your care team to provide the best outcome.

I am a board-certified adult psychiatrist who has been in practice for over ten years. I received my medical degree from Stanford University and went on to complete my residency in psychiatry at Harvard University. After completing training, I cultivated a private practice of psychiatry in San Francisco, California, treating persons with a variety of psychiatric illnesses, while also providing consultation and clinical supervision to psychotherapists in day-treatment and office-based practices. I then served as a psychiatry professor at the Florida Atlantic University Charles E. Schmidt College of Medicine in Florida, where, as Associate Director of the Psychiatry Residency Training Program, I provided psychiatric inpatient treatment while bringing leadership, scholarship, teaching, supervision, and mentoring to psychiatry residents and medical students. Most recently, I worked as a senior medical officer/consultant psychiatrist in New Zealand's public health system, serving local communities with expert diagnosis and treatment for a wide range of mental health conditions. I also continued to supervise U.S.-based psychiatrists, along with New Zealand psychotherapists, in advanced and complex clinical psychopharmacology and psychotherapy.

I am a psychiatrist interested in the mind-body connection in overall emotional and mental well-being. I have worked extensively with medically complex patients, including a special focus in psycho-oncology with cancer patients. I like to integrate therapy modalities, such as cognitive behavioral therapy, supportive therapy, mindfulness and meditation with medication management to optimize a patient's mental health.

I am double board-certified in Consultation-Liaison Psychiatry and Adult Psychiatry and have been practicing for over 7 years. Before Talkiatry, I worked as an Assistant Professor at the University of Washington and Fred Hutchinson Cancer Center. I also worked as an Assistant Professor and was Director of Emergency Psychiatry at the University of Chicago. I have presented nationally at the Academy of Consultation-Liaison Psychiatry and written a book chapter about psycho-oncology.

I attended medical school at John P. and Kathrine G. McGovern Medical School at the University of Texas Health Science Center at Houston. I then completed an Adult Psychiatry residency at the University of Texas Medical Branch at Galveston, followed by a Consultation-Liaison fellowship at Dell Medical School at the University of Texas at Austin.

I diagnose and treat conditions including depression, anxiety, bipolar disorder, ADHD, PTSD, and psychosis. I offer medication treatments and partner with patients to explore how their experiences, values, and goals shape their identity. By addressing maladaptive patterns and life challenges, I provide personalized, comprehensive care to help patients reach their full potential.

I earned my bachelor's degree in political philosophy and premedical sciences at the University of California, Davis, exploring how ideas shape cultures and institutions. Philosophy and science taught me that human experience is influenced by our past, beliefs, and biology. After graduation, I worked as a therapist for neurodivergent individuals, helping them process challenges and develop skills to reach their goals. I studied holistic patient care at Touro University College of Medicine, focusing on mind, body, and spirit. I completed my psychiatry residency at Riverside University Health System in Southern California, serving diverse patients with varied mental health conditions. As chief resident, I trained future physicians in evidence-based approaches while emphasizing the therapeutic and humanistic foundations of psychiatry.

I value the science and art of medicine, creating a warm, patient-centered environment. I am passionate about advocacy for psychiatric patients, supporting women, LGBTQIA+ individuals, immigrant communities, and patients of color. I believe excellent rapport enhances treatment effectiveness and fosters long-term, family-doctor-style relationships. I begin with a thorough discussion of a patient's history, goals, and prior treatments, and I prioritize clarity, psychoeducation, and collaborative decision-making, integrating supportive and psychodynamic approaches. I develop individualized treatment plans, optimize medication safely, and collaborate with other specialists to care for the whole person.

I earned a B.S. in Biology Honors and a B.A. in Plan II Honors from the University of Texas at Austin, with internships at the Lozano Long Institute of Latin American Studies and for State Senator Eddie Lucio. I earned my M.D. at the University of Texas Long School of Medicine with Distinction in Medical Humanities, completed my psychiatry residency at UC Riverside, and practiced across inpatient, ER, forensic, and outpatient settings in California. I have extensive experience treating both severely mentally ill and working-well populations.

I value collaboration and encourage patients to ask questions, clarify expectations, and identify their primary concerns from the start. While medication management is part of care, I emphasize insight, goal setting, and skill building. I integrate hypnotherapy, guided imagery, relaxation, and meditation to support wellness, pain management, sleep, anxiety, and addiction, tailoring treatment to each patient's needs. I take a flexible, whole-person approach, combining medication management with evidence-based therapies such as CBT, CPT, motivational interviewing, and family-based interventions. I work comfortably with children, adults, families, service members, Veterans, and individuals facing life transitions, including end-of-life concerns. My goal is to help patients develop practical tools for lasting mental, emotional, and spiritual well-being.

I am a physician with a distinguished career in military and civilian psychiatry. A retired Colonel in the U.S. Army, I have served as a plenary and invited speaker at national and international conferences on topics including addiction, electroconvulsive therapy, hypnotherapy, and quality improvement. I am a Certified Healthcare Executive, hold a master's degree in preventive medicine and biometrics, and have published in peer-reviewed journals. My clinical background includes pain management, addiction psychiatry, child and adult psychiatry, and academic appointments at multiple universities.

I practice psychiatry through a collaborative, integrative, disability and healing justice-informed lens. I reject oversimplified binaries, recognizing that healing requires embracing complexity. My approach integrates psychiatric and psychotherapeutic practices with complementary, alternative, and natural therapies, as well as harm reduction. My approach is neurodivergence-, queer-, and gender-affirming as well as trauma-informed. Rejecting the binary of "mentally ill" vs. "mentally healthy," I recognize the mind, body, and soul's inherent complexity. My clinical interests include anxiety, OCD, women's reproductive mental health, climate stress, intergenerational trauma, immigrant and refugee mental health, and substance use concerns.

I provide a healing space that prioritizes each service user's goals and lived experiences, and I tailor care to each service user. The first session explores goals, treatment options, and optimal meeting frequency. In many cases, visits are more frequent at the beginning of treatment and spaced out over time. I prefer visits at least every 4–6 weeks and integrate psychotherapy into all treatment plans, with many service users benefiting from ongoing deeper therapeutic work.

My training includes Columbia, Johns Hopkins, and a global mental health fellowship at UCSF.

Based in Tucson, I enjoy desert life, reading, baking, making art, and spending time with my two dogs.

I believe that every patient brings their own mosaic of experiences embedded in a unique story. I understand that building a strong therapeutic relationship through empathy, compassion, trust, and respect is essential. I enjoy taking time to understand my patients' goals, offer psychoeducation, and create a collaborative plan for treatment with the patient. I believe in a holistic approach to mental health treatment, which includes medication management, supportive and cognitive behavioral therapy techniques, as well as mind-body medicine techniques. I also have a special interest in psychodynamic therapy, an in-depth therapy modality, which I incorporate in all patient interactions and sessions.

I am a board-certified Adult Psychiatrist. I received my undergraduate degree from Wayne State University in Detroit and completed my medical degree at Oakland University William Beaumont in Rochester, MI. I am a graduate of the Adult Psychiatry Residency Program at St. Mary Mercy Hospital in Livonia, MI, and I have also completed a psychotherapy fellowship through the Michigan Psychoanalytic Institute.

Due to the diversity and richness of culture in southeast Michigan, I have experience working with patients from varied backgrounds. I enjoy the challenge such a heterogeneous environment brings and am particularly fond of working with young adults experiencing life transitions. I also have experience working with patients from lower socioeconomic backgrounds, as well as adolescents and geriatric populations.

My practice primarily focuses on medication management, though I use a holistic approach in developing individualized treatment plans. I typically incorporate elements of various psychotherapy modalities, including supportive, cognitive behavioral (CBT), dialectical behavioral (DBT), and insight-oriented therapy, in 30- or 45-minute follow-up visits. Occasionally, I may believe that more intensive therapy is needed and recommend that you bring a dedicated therapist into your care team for an optimal outcome. I aim to provide mental health care that helps patients live more fulfilling lives.

I am a board-certified adult psychiatrist. I received my medical doctorate degree from the University of Texas Southwestern Medical School and completed my residency training in general psychiatry at the University of Michigan. During my training, I gained extensive experience treating psychiatric disorders in diverse populations, including college students, LGBTQ+ individuals, perinatal women, veterans, and those with socioeconomic disadvantages. I have worked with experts on cases of treatment-resistant depression and provided consultations for patients considering procedural interventions, such as transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS), electroconvulsive therapy (ECT), and ketamine infusion therapy.

My primary focus is medication management with an emphasis on shared decision-making; however, I frequently also utilize supportive therapy, cognitive behavioral therapy, and psychodynamic therapy principles in my approach. I have a patient-centered and thorough approach to treatment, with experience treating a broad spectrum of mental health disorders and particular interest in depression, anxiety, and post-traumatic stress disorder. I may refer patients to a therapist if further support would be beneficial.

I received my medical degree from the University of Texas Health Science Center of San Antonio and subsequently completed my psychiatry residency training at UT Health San Antonio. I have also worked in clinic with severely mentally ill patients at the South Texas VA in San Antonio.

I approach healing as both a science and an art. My care is profoundly patient-centered, collaborative, and holistic, honoring the intricate connection between body, mind, and spirit. I believe in the quiet power of nourishment, restful sleep, joyful movement, and meaningful connection as essential threads in the fabric of wellness. I am a proud and affirming ally to the LGBTQIA community, creating a space where all identities are seen, respected, and supported.

I am dually board-certified in Child, Adolescent, and Adult Psychiatry, and my journey through medicine has been shaped by rich and diverse training.

I have extensive experience treating a wide spectrum of conditions, including mood disorders, anxiety, trauma, ADHD, and sleep disturbances, and I tailor my approach to each individual's unique story.

My treatment model includes thoughtful, personalized medication management, with generous 30-minute follow-up sessions to ensure care is never rushed and always attuned to the patient's evolving needs. When appropriate, I may gently recommend the added support of a therapist, recognizing that healing is often a shared and layered journey. With a heart rooted in empathy and a mind guided by clinical excellence, I walk beside my patients on the path to well-being, honoring their resilience and helping them rediscover their wholeness.

I primarily focus on medication management for general psychiatric conditions. My approach is individualized, ensuring that each patient receives a treatment plan tailored to their unique needs. I integrate supportive therapy, medications, and evidence-based alternative therapies to provide a flexible and comprehensive approach. In addition to my general practice, I maintain a psychodynamic psychotherapy panel where I help patients explore developmental and relational patterns that contribute to their symptoms. My specialties include treating depression, anxiety, adjustment disorders, PTSD, insomnia, bipolar disorder, and ADHD.

While in residency, I specialized in the Psychotherapy Scholars Program and have since gained four years of experience treating psychiatric conditions through telehealth.

During the first visit, patients can expect a one-hour comprehensive intake during which I thoroughly evaluate their symptoms, medical history, and personal goals. I provide treatment options that prioritize flexibility, allowing patients to take an active role in their care. Follow-up visits typically last 20 to 30 minutes, focusing on assessing treatment progress and making necessary adjustments. For those engaged in psychodynamic psychotherapy, longer one-hour sessions are available for in-depth exploration of underlying psychological patterns.

I take a holistic approach to mental health care, integrating therapy into my sessions and collaborating with patients to develop individualized medication regimens that best meet their needs. My gentle and understanding approach helps create a supportive environment for my patients, fostering their mental and emotional well-being.
