You may be holding things no one ever helped you make sense of—trauma, ADHD, anxiety, or depression. Maybe you’ve spent years trying to function while feeling disconnected, reactive, or unsure of your own identity. I offer a space where we slow down, untangle what’s happening underneath the surface, and figure it out together. Growing up around mental health and substance use challenges gave me a lifelong curiosity about people and a deep respect for the strength it takes to just keep going.

Hi, I am Ryan Wade, a psychiatrist board certified in Psychiatry, Addiction Psychiatry, and Addiction Medicine. I completed medical school and my Psychiatry residency at Eastern Virginia Medical School, followed by an Addiction Psychiatry fellowship at Yale University School of Medicine. Despite my training in the addiction field, I spend a large portion of my time focusing on mental health conditions such as depression, anxiety, ADHD, and more. I find that I typically work most with people who want to consolidate their medication regimen or those who view medication as a tool, not solely the solution to the issues they are facing.

FAQ - Psychiatrists for Seniors
Do psychiatrists see seniors?
Yes, psychiatrists frequently work with older adults to address the mental health challenges that commonly arise with aging, including depression, anxiety, grief, sleep difficulties, caregiver stress, and the emotional impact of chronic illness. Some psychiatrists specialize specifically in older adults, while others see seniors as part of a general practice. Research consistently shows that untreated mental health conditions in older adults can worsen physical health outcomes and reduce overall quality of life. Therefore, getting appropriate care from a psychiatrist with experience treating older adults can make a significant difference in day-to-day functioning and overall wellbeing.

Should older adults see a psychiatrist or a therapist?
Psychiatrists are medical doctors who can diagnose mental health conditions, prescribe and manage medications, and assess whether physical or neurological factors are contributing to mental health symptoms. Therapists, by contrast, are not medical doctors, but provide talk-based treatment to help clients work through emotional challenges, behavioral issues, and life challenges. For many older adults, seeing both a psychiatrist and a therapist is the most effective approach. A psychiatrist can handle medication and medical oversight, while a therapist provides ongoing emotional support and coping strategies. If you are primarily seeking support for a condition that does not require medical oversight, a therapist may be the right starting point. Then, if symptoms are severe or if symptoms don’t respond to therapy alone, a psychiatric evaluation can be a good next step.

How can I find a psychiatrist who sees seniors?
Psychology Today's online directory allows you to search for psychiatrists (MDs) and psychiatric nurse practitioners (PMHNPs) who work with elderly adults. You can filter by specialty areas relevant to seniors to find providers with relevant experience. Each provider profile includes information on therapeutic approach, licensure, insurance accepted, languages spoken, and session fees, so you can assess whether a provider is a good fit before reaching out.
