Psychiatrist
MD
Currently accepting new patients Hello, I am Dr. Svetlana Yakov, board certified psychiatrist with combined background in medicine and neurology in academics, clinics and research, author of USA/international publications and presentations in neuroscience/neuropsychiatry. I specialize in treatment resistant mental illness (unipolar/bipolar depression, PTSD, psychosis, substance use disorders not responsive to prior medications). I have a holistic approach to the patients based on my clinical/research experience in medicine/neuroscience and provide personalized treatment based on psychopharmacological genetic testing for patients who did not have good clinical effect from prior medications or had many side effects. I put high value on integrative psychiatry and help my patients to find underlying metabolic, endocrine, inflammatory, postsurgical, and nutritional problems contributing to poor response to traditional mental health medications.
