Carl Fleisher, MD

Welcome to our practice, where we specialize in child, adolescent, adult, and family psychiatry. Our goal is to provide state-of-the-art care while maintaining a personal and attentive approach. We offer comprehensive assessments and treatments for individuals, couples, and families in a comfortable and professional setting.

Our Approach

At the heart of our practice are the core principles of attachment and learning/behavior. We believe that building strong relationships is vital to happiness, and that rewards and consequences can be used to shape behavior. At the same time, we recognize that each person is unique, and we tailor our treatments to suit each individual's specific concerns, taking into account their symptoms, history, and context.

We strive for excellence in all that we do. This means conducting thorough evaluations, providing accurate diagnoses, and offering recommendations that are based on up-to-date, rigorous research. Our aim is not just to reduce symptoms but to bring about visible improvement in our patients' lives, helping them to live fulfilling lives despite any obstacles or pain.

Treatment

We offer a wide range of treatments, including evidence-based psychotherapy and medication. We use medication conservatively, following evidence-based guidelines and seeking the smallest dose and shortest length of time possible. Our goal is to help people gain self-awareness and skills, which can eliminate the need for medication over time.

We treat a range of illnesses, from depression, anxiety, ADHD, insomnia, tics, and trauma, to substance abuse and eating disorders. We are also available to consult with parents of infants on attachment. We work with individuals, families, and business partners, tailoring our approach to each person's specific needs.
