Stephen Patrick McDermott
Psychiatrist, MD

My ideal client is anyone in need of assistance with their mental health needs. I have over 35 years of experience in the practice and teaching of cognitive-behavioral therapy, which is a short-term psychotherapy that deals with a broad range of problems. Through CBT, patients learn strategies to deal with their problems and over time become their own therapists . This increases self-reliance and lessens the amount of time that patients actually need psychotherapy. Patients want help, but they also want to know that there can be an ending point to their therapy. I have proven success in these using these methods.

Ideally my patient is as invested in their care as I am. They could have a variety of diagnoses but the thing they have in common is they are willing to give the process time, are open to new ideas, and know there is no magic pill to fix all their problems. My patients want to get to the best version of themselves and are willing to try therapy as well as medications to help them reach that goal. My patient wants an empathetic, listening provider who can guide their care based on the evidence, but tailored to their individual needs.
