Bryan Morales, MD

Dr. Morales is dedicated to the bio-psycho-sociocultural model. This has been reflected in Dr. Morales’ pursuit of treating patients suffering from diverse medical and psychiatric conditions, respective psychological mindedness, and varied socio-economic and cultural backgrounds. As an individual, Dr. Morales is fascinated by the human mind, its mechanisms to pursue goals, and the cyclical patterns seen in maladaptation and suffering. He believes in understanding patients’ experiences and developing comprehensive treatment plans towards reconciliation.

After completing his medical education at the East Carolina Brody School of Medicine, as a Brody Scholar, he subsequently completed psychiatry residency at Jackson Health System/University of Miami. Dr. Morales has had the opportunity to work with a diverse array of patients including high-functioning patients, veterans, trafficking victims, the severely mentally ill of low socio-economic status, and cancer patients across three distinct hospital systems via telemedicine and face-to-face interactions.

His experience includes working with patients suffering from post-traumatic stress disorder, adjustment disorder, mood disorders, generalized anxiety disorder, panic disorder, and more.  He honors active listening, analytic understanding, supportive psychotherapy techniques, and an evidence-based and methodological treatment to patient care and actualization. His goal is to assist patients in navigating short- and long-term goals as well as improved quality of life.

As a result, Dr. Morales focuses on medication management, which is offered in conjunction with supportive therapy offered in 1-hour initial and 30-minute follow-up visits. Dr. Morales believes that appropriate patients can benefit from additional exploratory and self-actualizing therapy from other valued and specialized therapists to support targeted goals. He will not hesitate to recommend and promote consultations with therapists for such patients who are ready to pursue.

Ultimately, Dr. Morales seeks to understand, validate, and treat patients in a collaborative therapeutic alliance.
