“I’ve tried working with dozens of psychiatrists in the past, but none have gone above and beyond to help me like Mark has. This isn’t to say that there were anything necessarily wrong with the other professionals, but it was clear that many of them limited their recommendations to the same basic and standard textbook suggestions that anyone can find online these days. Mark has a very clear understanding of unique, severe, and treatment-resistant conditions and never gives up on trying to come up with new ways to outsmart them. He is also great at breaking down the problems and potential solutions into descriptions that you don’t need a medical background to understand. It’s very clear by his responsiveness, unending compassion, and ability to show genuine concern for his patients that he is truly a one-of-a-kind professional that others can’t compare to.”

“Dr. Elliott provided valuable guidance on my son’s very complex mental health issues and symptoms. We found his expertise around combination medications and management of side effects to surpass that of many other psychiatrists my son has seen over the years. His compassion, clear explanations, and dedication to helping my son were all evident throughout the appointment. ”

Getting to know Dr. Mark Elliott
I pride myself on providing kind, competent, and responsive psychotherapy and med management for issues with mental health of all sorts. I am currently doing intake and follow up appointments exclusively by teleconferencing (video chat), and I can see new patients within days.
My principal expertise is in psychotherapy and psychopharmacology: the interface between medicines and the mind. I have extensive experience treating a broad variety of mental health conditions. While I am a believer in 'better living through chemistry,' I pride myself on minimalism, and believe a combination of medicines and psychotherapy helps most people the most.
I prefer to work with people who are interested in pursuing treatment and taking their mental health into their own hands. Beyond that, I am very flexible as to individual goals and means of acquiring those goals.
What should a new client know about working with you?
I am especially flexible when it comes to working with my people. I work with folks to establish a style and rhythm for us to work, based on the needs and logistical realities that present themselves.
What is your typical process for working with clients?
For adults, I typically start with a 60-minute intake interview to establish a connection and gather any necessary information. From there, visits tend to be 45 minutes, and frequency depends largely on the needs in the moment. Anywhere form twice a week to a month, 2 months, and eventually 3 months if things have stabilized.
For younger people, multiple intake appointments are necessary, speaking to both the young person and the important people in their lives. From there, I remain flexible as to frequency depending on the needs at hand.

I don't have enough words to describe the way Mark has changed my life for the better. From day one he was driven to help me and 6+ years later I'm terrified of going anywhere else. Jokes aside Mark is a once in a lifetime find and I'm grateful for all he's done to help me!

I’ve met with 10+ psychiatrists and can say Mark is a real lifesaver. I started seeing him over three years ago, and he’s consistently been extremely responsive, gentle, reassuring, and wonderfully thorough. He’s deeply knowledgeable when it comes to medication without ever once pushing them or being careless. He’s truly changed my life for the better, and I couldn’t be more grateful. Mark is also the most nonjudgmental doctor I’ve ever met. It’s difficult to come by this sort of genuineness and competence. Highly recommend!
