While most psychiatrists provide only medication management, I offer patients a combination of psychopharmacology and psychotherapy. I believe that medications facilitate therapy, in that they allow us just enough distance from our emotions for therapy to take hold and grow. As a physician, a psychiatrist, and a therapist, I am uniquely positioned to treat your entire being, ensuring your physical, mental, and emotional needs are all addressed in the same place, by the same person.

You REALLY can feel calmer, more confident, and reach your goals. Anxiety can get in the way of your success by creating doubt, worry, and wasted energy. We have all been there, which can be very uncomfortable and undermining. However, goal focused treatment including cognitive behavioral therapy and medications can provide you with the tools to feel better. For twenty years, I have helped professionals just like you to get back on their feel and reach their goals.

Psychiatry is as much a science as an art, and listening carefully to my patients is key. As a teaching psychiatrist at Mount Sinai Beth Israel and assistant clinical professor of psychiatry in the Mount Sinai Icahn School of Medicine, I treat a wide range of problems including Anxiety, Depression, Sleep issues, Bipolar Disorder, Adult ADHD, Addiction, OCD, Trauma, Family issues, and Stress Management issues. Sometimes medication is not the answer. I do psychotherapy in addition to medication, but I also collaborate with a large network of outside therapists to help you find the best fit for your needs.

Alcohol Use Psychiatrists

Are there specific medications for alcohol use?

There are oral medications approved to treat alcohol use disorder—such as disulfiram, acamprosate, and naltrexone, which also comes in an injectable form. These medications do help people reduce their drinking as well as avoid the problem of relapse. Naltrexone helps reduce cravings, disulfiram can make a person feel sick when they drink, and acamprosate may help ease symptoms like poor sleep and anxious feelings.

How do alcohol recovery or rehabilitation programs work?

In inpatient programs, individuals live in a facility with other patients in recovery; in outpatient programs,individuals live at home. These facilities are staffed with healthcare professionals including physicians, nurses, psychologists, counselors, and psychotherapists. Staff can also include people who have recovered themselves, serving as mentors and guides. These programs may use abstinence, harm reduction, detoxification, psychotherapy, and other tools for recovery.

How do 12-step programs combined with psychotherapy work?

Members of 12-step programs help each other reach abstinence and work to maintain it. These programs promote complete change in the individual’s emotional, mental, physical, and even spiritual perspectives. Some programs require that new members attend 90 meetings in 90 days. Many people do attend these programs in conjunction with their work in psychotherapy; the combination of therapy along with 12-step can be extremely effective.

How does harm reduction combined with psychotherapy work?

According to the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration, harm reduction prevents death, injury, disease, overdose, and substance misuse. People who choose harm reduction for alcohol use reduce the amount of alcohol they intake. It is not abstinence-based like a 12-step program, but combining harm reduction with psychotherapy proves to be effective for many people.
