Minyang Mao, M.D., Psychiatrist
Psychiatrist, MD
Verified by Psychology Today
San Mateo, California 94404
"I am a board-certified adult psychiatrist whose practice is shaped by three core values: Caring, Comprehensive, and Confidential. Caring - Medical care too often makes patients to feel like they are just a number - dismissed, rushed, not heard, and not understood. One of my core values as a psychiatrist is to establish a caring treatment relationship with my patients that is guided by my patients' priorities and preferences, and is characterized by trust and open dialogue. I believe the quality of my relationship with my patient is the foundation to treatment success."

"[More can be found online at www.jwilkinsonmd.com] This practice emphasizes the use of evidence-based diagnostic and treatment approaches in children, adolescents, and adults. The focus is on interactive, solution-focused styles of psychotherapy (CBT, IPT, TEAM, others), and medication when appropriate. I believe problems can be fully understood only when considered in the context of our whole lives. My formulated understanding of why problems exist and how to treat them incorporates this key principle. I work best with people ready to change, even if that change is difficult. With compassion and dedication, we can get there together."

I use three approaches: 1) psychotherapy only, brief or long term; 2) a combination of psychotherapy and psychopharmacology; and 3) medication management without psychotherapy.
