Dr. Layan Zhang, MD

Child and Adolescent Psychiatrist
8929 Shady Grove Ct, Gaithersburg, MD
I am double board-certified in Child, Adolescent, and Adult Psychiatry. I earned my Master's in Medicine from Shanxi Medical University, completed my residency in Psychiatry at St. Elizabeths Hospital, and pursued a fellowship in Child and Adolescent Psychiatry at Children's National Hospital. My practice philosophy is to first educate my patients and their legal guardians on the most up-to-date treatment guidelines relevant to their concerns, ensuring they fully understand treatment protocols. Together, we make informed decisions about their care. I am committed to supporting my patients throughout their journey to recovery. I work with children, adolescents, and adults, specializing in the treatment of depression, anxiety, ADHD, Autism, Bipolar Disorder, ODD, PTSD, behavioral issues, and psychotic disorders. My approach combines psychoeducation, medication management, and other evidence-based treatments tailored to each individual's needs.
