What Does Holistic Psychiatry in NYC Look Like?

Despite the emergence of new treatment modalities, psychotherapy continues to be an effective course of treatment for treating depression, anxiety and other mental health problems.

Creative Solution Psychiatry  offers truly holistic, patient-focused psychiatric services in our wonderful, spa-like office in Manhattan. While our practice emphasizes psychotherapy, we also provide advanced treatments like Ketamine Assisted Psychotherapy  only when necessary. Creative Solution Psychiatry is guided by Dr. David H. Lifschutz, a Board-Certified psychiatrist who provides caring and expert treatment for an array of mental health challenges.

Psychotherapy with a Focus on Mindfulness

Dr. Lifschutz takes great care during the patient assessment phase to create treatment plans that unearth the source of emotional strain. During the evaluation, he will also review any existing medications and coordinate care with your other care providers. By evaluating your body’s chemical and emotional states, he then formulates a truly holistic treatment plan that integrates healing modalities for body and mind.

The foundation of Dr. Lifschutz’s approach to healing is to rebuild your state of mind by helping you figure out the root of your emotional issues through psychotherapy. Once you gain insight, you can start to improve the way you look at your life. If Dr. Lifschutz believes you can benefit from augmenting psychotherapy with Ketamine or other drugs, he will then introduce them.

Anxiety, social anxiety and depression are widespread conditions. During the pandemic, many people were reluctant to seek treatment, which exacerbated symptoms already difficult to manage in the first place. Now that life in New York has returned to normal, it is easy for people to come to our lovely office in the historic 303 Fifth Avenue building.

Dr. Lifschutz’s approach to mental health is different. He believes that unearthing the root cause of suffering and addressing the mind and body at the same time is essential for holistic healing. If you are suffering from anxiety, depression, PTSD, OCD, suicidality or other mental health disorder that is disrupting your life, we invite you to inquire about how we can help you.
