Go beyond symptom management into growth. Jacob Horton, MD, MBA combines Harvard and Yale psychiatric training, Buddhist-based mindfulness practices, psychodynamic therapy and therapeutic use of exercise to help clients faced with depression, anxiety, addiction, trauma and ADHD. Clients can expect an improvement in symptoms, such as reduced anxiety or substance use, within a few weeks. As treatment progresses, our focus shifts gradually from surface-level symptoms to exploring the deeper, underlying cause of said symptoms and facilitating further growth.
Dr. Horton is board-certified in general psychiatry after completing 4-year residency at Harvard Medical School and Boston VA. He received additional specialized psychodynamic therapy training by completing a fellowship at the Boston Psychoanalytic Society & Institute. He is currently completing an addiction psychiatry fellowship at Yale School of Medicine.

In addition to a personalized assessment and medication management, Dr. Horton primarily practices a relational psychodynamic (psychoanalytical) approach with clients which traces areas of distress back to maladaptive, less conscious patterns formed throughout life. After gaining this insight, Dr. Horton utilizes aspects of CBT, DBT, transference and mindfulness to rewrite these patterns.
