Hi, I'm Gil.
Welcome!
I am a board-certified child & adolescent psychiatrist, board-certified adult psychiatrist, and PhD developmental neuroscientist.
I provide comprehensive mental health care for children, adolescents, and adults primarily using medical and psychological frameworks, with modern neuroscience and brain development research to guide a deeper biological understanding of healthy and functionally impairing behavior.
I prescribe medications when needed, provide psychotherapy including the humanistic motivational interviewing approach and philosophy, and deliver transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS).
A critical role for a doctor is to be a teacher and coach. Therefore, taking the time to actively listen to questions and provide education that is helpful and understandable is a critical part of patient care.
I have specialized training in neurodevelopmental disorders of childhood and adolescence that continue into adulthood, and particular expertise in psychosis risk and schizophrenia.
Spending time with my family and friends, playing guitar, writing and playing music, playing soccer and any sport, going to the beach, and exploring tide pools brings me enrichment, joy, and tranquility.
Please feel free to explore my site and contact me if you have any questions.
