Psychiatrists in 20008
David John Fischer
Psychiatrist, MD

I treat patients who are experiencing distressing symptoms due to problems with their mood, difficulty thinking, poor concentration and difficulty focusing, or may be having problems in their personal relationships or occupational functioning. People who initially are less concerned with how a problem arose than with the current factors sustaining the problem and what is preventing them from trying to change it. People who want to learn coping techniques and problem-solving skills that can help them regain a sense of control in their life. Later in treatment, people may want to identify and understand the behavior, emotions, and ideas that contribute to their problems.

Mental health is also a priority, thus, respecting and understanding one's belief is among my strongest qualities because being empathy, listening and building trust helps to bridge the gap in accessing mental health services. My strong clinical skills, such as listening, communication, empathy, and building trust with my clients, are my assets to bridge the gap in accessing mental health services.

Mauricio Cortina
Psychiatrist, MD

I have a collaborative style of working that takes people where they are, identify what brings them to therapy and what they need from me. We work to identify vulnerabilities that come from development and family/cultural/ethic backgrounds. Just as important, we work to identify strengths and what needs to be done to bring out the best version of themselves: to care and have compassion for themselves and others, develop their interest and passions. Over 40 years of as a psychiatrist and psychotherapist I have learned that diagnostic categories are not the most important factor in getting better but the determination to get well.
