Dr. Sullivan immediately put me at ease, and gave me information on potential new meds that I could research. He also offered to send me a release so that he could communicate directly with my therapist. Overall, I enjoyed our initial session and look forward to working with Dr. Sullivan more to get the healing I need and deserve.

More about Dr. Philip Sullivan, MD
**CANNOT PRESCRIBE CONTROLLED SUBSTANCES FOR NH PATIENTS**
Dr. Phillip Sullivan is a staff psychiatrist at Talkiatry. He is board certified in both adult psychiatry and child and adolescent psychiatry. His interest in psychiatric treatment was originally triggered by the humanistic writings of Abraham Maslow, Carl Rogers, and Rollo May. As he earned his medical degree and started post-graduate psychiatric training, he went on to learn psycho-pharmacological, cognitive-behavioral, and psychodynamic treatment approaches. He combines these perspectives in diagnosing and treating psychiatric conditions including depression, bipolar spectrum disorders, anxiety, stress and trauma related disorders, adjustment problems, maternal mental health, OCD, ADHD and other disorders.His practice focuses on supportive pharmacological treatment, and he sees listening and empathy as essential elements of the treatment process. He strives to provide a comfortable experience in which doctor and patient work together to understand the presenting problems, develop a treatment plan, reduce symptoms, and optimize functioning. Dr. Sullivan supports and encourages concurrent psychotherapy and will work collaboratively with therapists to optimize the best treatment results.
Dr. Sullivan received his MD degree from Brown University Alpert School of Medicine. After completing a medical-surgical internship, he went on to a residency in adult psychiatry and a fellowship in child and adolescent psychiatry at Harvard Medical School’s Massachusetts Mental Health Center. He has held academic appointments at Harvard Medical School and the University of New England School of Osteopathic Medicine. In the 36 years following completion of his training, he has worked as the medical director of a mental health center on the under-served Eastern Shore of Maryland, as the medical director of a child and adolescent psychiatric inpatient unit, as a staff psychiatrist at New Hampshire’s Dartmouth Hitchcock Clinic.

Hello, I received a confirmation of this appointment yesterday, 04.15.25. I was ready, willing, and able to participate at 10:30 a.m. When I didn't receive any dial in information, I called Customer Service. Who informed the appointment had been cancelled on 04.04.25. I guess the doctor does not see patient in my age group. I believe Dr. Sullivan's information should be updated to reflect the fact he does not see certain age groups. I also believe the portal should be updated to reflect that he doesn't take all insurance. Frankly, I would pay for the treatment. I arranged my work schedule in order that I could participate in this appointment. Thank you.
