If you're living with depression that hasn't responded to typical treatments, there are still options for support and healing. With a focus on neuromodulation and psychopharmacology, I specialize in exploring alternative approaches to help those with treatment-resistant depression. By working together, we can develop a personalized plan that suits your unique needs, guiding you toward improved mental health and a renewed sense of well-being. Let's take this step together toward restoring balance and finding a path forward. Please visit www.bennettwechslermd.com
With experience as a former chief resident in psychopharmacology and neuromodulation, and as a medical director for a med-psych unit, I deeply understand how mental health issues affect your life. My lifelong passion is to help you find effective solutions to these challenges. Let's work together to enhance your well-being and improve your quality of life.
I serve as a lead therapist in a Psilocybin trial and have experience as a subinvestigator for ketamine trials. I have a keen interest in psychedelic science and novel methods for treating depression, PTSD, and alcoholism. Additionally, I am trained in administering Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation and other non-pharmacologic treatments.

In a system that frequently plays a "numbers game," Bennett is the rare practitioner who truly cares about his patients. He is thorough, knowledgeable, and deeply invested in his patients' success. I'd refer out to him in a heartbeat.

Bennett is a psychiatrist I am happy to have my clients see. His thinking is holistic, sophisticated and I appreciate his interest in exploring both medications and non-pharmacological interventions with patients.

Treatment Approach

Types of Therapy

  • Acceptance and Commitment (ACT)
  • Cognitive Behavioral (CBT)
  • Psychodynamic
"
I am trained in administering Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Psychodynamic Psychotherapy, and Supportive Psychotherapy to help you manage whatever life may throw your way. I find CBT can be most helpful in navigating how specific thoughts and emotions can affect behaviors. In psychodynamic psychotherapy, we go deeper and help you discover how you came to interface with the world.
