Ahsan Shaikh, MD

I use a strength based approach to healing focused on developing self-awareness through compassion. As part of the healing process, I support families in their journey to uncover the wisdom hidden in their distress. I have experience in treating mood disorders, anxiety, OCD, ADHD, psychosis, and trauma. I specialize in Mind Body approaches to healing, integrating yoga, exercise, nutrition and restful sleep into treatment plans. I have given numerous trainings on Strength Based Diagnosis, Psychotropic Medications, Post-Traumatic Stress and Spirituality in Mental Health Care. In addition to psychopharmacology, I have been trained in Psychodynamic Therapy, Cognitive and Dialectical Behavioral Therapy, Interpersonal Psychotherapy, EMDR, Trauma Focused CBT and Mind Body Medicine. The most influential training has come from raising my three children.
