Dr. Abby M. Irwin, M.D. is a uniquely compassionate and skilled psychiatrist, particularly interested in the mind-body connection and utilizing a creative and cooperative pathway to wellness. Each patient is viewed with an open mind as the priority is to enable a non-judgmental setting for open communication. Each patient’s care is individually tailored, as you are not a diagnosis, but a person. While providing an expert opinion, Dr. Irwin very much is interested in working together with you. So, in a caring fashion, a careful assessment of your symptoms and issues is conducted, including a full medical history, to then devise a treatment plan. While medication can be life-saving, a holistic approach is essential to Dr. Irwin’s care of your mental health. Medication is just one piece of getting better. Hopefully, you will have greater understanding of yourself and your relationships along the way. Dr. Irwin is available either as a sole provider for mental health issues or as a compliment to your already existing psychotherapy. Of note, Dr. Irwin has lived in various metropolitan cities, in the US and abroad, providing a unique exposure and understanding of diverse cultural backgrounds and religions. Special areas of experience and interest are depression and anxiety, life transitions, men’s and women’s issues, multicultural issues, adult ADD/ADHD, PTSD, relationships, and stress management. Dr. Irwin is also available as a corporate consultant to provide in-house assessments and advice as to management of interpersonal or other work-related complexities.
