Many people come to therapy feeling faced with impossible choices that are fraught with danger. That feeling of unsafety can limit our choices and our capacity to think. Treatment offers a space where we can work together to establish the safety required for our minds to explore different possibilities. Once that is established, we are able to make sense of those challenges to find a way forward.

I am a psychiatrist with many years of experience treating children, teenagers and adults. I am double-boarded, with certifications in child and adolescent psychiatry and adult psychiatry. I was drawn to medicine by a fascination with the interplay between the mind and the brain. But while the physical brain can be examined in many ways, the human mind is still best understood through a discussion of thoughts and feelings between patient and doctor.

How can psychiatrists help with traumatic brain injuries?
Traumatic brain injuries (TBIs) are a broad range of brain injuries resulting from physical trauma to the head, ranging from mild concussions to severe damage caused by penetrating wounds or serious accidents. These injuries typically lead to a combination of physical, cognitive, and emotional symptoms, often requiring specialized psychiatric care. Psychiatrists play a critical role in the recovery process from TBIs addressing both the direct effects of the brain injury and the psychological challenges associated with adapting to a disability. In addition to managing the primary symptoms of TBI, they help patients cope with related complications, such as chronic pain, persistent headaches, and emotional strain that may accompany major life changes.
What does psychiatric treatment for traumatic brain injuries involve?
TBI management is often complex, and psychiatrists with expertise in this area possess specific knowledge of how various medications to manage TBI symptoms—such as anticonvulsants to prevent seizures—can be used effectively. They also prescribe treatments for the emotional aspects of TBI, such as antidepressants and anti-anxiety medications. However, medication is only one part of comprehensive care, and behavioral therapies are also central to psychiatric treatment for TBI. Psychiatrists may recommend or provide evidence-based approaches such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), which helps patients reframe negative thoughts, develop coping strategies, and reduce symptoms of depression and anxiety. In addition, psychiatrists frequently work alongside neurologists, physical therapists, occupational therapists, and other mental health professionals as part of a comprehensive rehabilitation plan.
How can I find a psychiatrist who specializes in traumatic brain injuries?
Not all psychiatrists are equipped to treat TBIs, so finding a psychiatrist knowledgeable about TBIs specifically is essential. The Psychology Today directory is a helpful resource for locating psychiatrists with a TBI specialization. Using its search filters, individuals can identify professionals with relevant expertise and, if preferred, refine their search by selecting providers who share similar identities—such as gender, religion, or cultural background. When evaluating potential psychiatrists, consider asking about their experience in treating TBIs and their approach to both medication and behavioral interventions. It's also important to confirm the accessibility of their services—whether they are available in-person, via telehealth, or both—and whether they accept your insurance plan.
