Dr. Nicholas Barnes is a Harvard-trained, board-certified psychiatrist in the Boston area (Belmont, MA). He provides treatment for depression, anxiety, PTSD, OCD, addiction and chronic pain. As a psychiatrist, psychotherapist, and additionally a board-certified pain medicine physician, he is uniquely qualified to bridge the gap between medical and psychological treatments. Dr. Barnes draws on traditional talk therapy, mindfulness and philosophical perspectives, and modern neuroscience to help people develop insight, emotional freedom, self-acceptance, and behavioral change.
Dr. Barnes provides scientifically backed therapy techniques and closely follows evidenced-based treatments. He recognizes, however, that the most evidenced-based factor impacting psychotherapy outcomes is the quality of the relationship between the provider and client. Therefore, he strives to create an authentic and emotionally vivid relationship.
The core treatment of Dr. Barnes's practice is psychotherapy, but he does provide medication and/or comprehensive pain treatment to clients who are also engaged in psychotherapy with him.
