Whole Human Psychiatry is a 501(C)3 non-profit corporation. If you want to sponsor psychiatry support for a distressed medical student or physician in training, or become a guardian angel for a single mother or father, a distressed trans adult who has no family support to turn to, or you just want a tax break, as an anonymous helper for someone who needs my support but cannot pay for it, let me know. I would love to make that happen.

Important: I will not provide "Pretend Supervison". Pretend supervision is where a doctor gets paid to pick up a pen and sign their name 100 times on pieces of paper without having any idea what's going on with that case, or having a thorough understanding of what risks may be present, to patient safety. My signature is not for sale.

Dr. Goldman, Why don't you take insurance?
Some people are looking for more than a 15 minute drive-by doctor visit for "med checks". Some are actually ready to take on a multi-dimensional journey toward wellness. I do not offer an insurance oriented production driven clinic. At Whole Human Psychiatry, I offer a full fledged, evidence based, psychopharmacology and psychotherapy experience, for those who are ready to make this commitment to themselves.
