Why remain silent to your needs?
Deciding to see a psychiatrist is no easy task. Dr. Webster's goal is to warmly ease his patients in a clear and predictable process to help achieve their treatment goals. His philosophy is to help others identify problematic areas in their life and strengthen these areas using short or long-term dynamic talk therapy in addition to medication management when necessary. Biological, psychological, and social factors often play complementary roles in one's mental health. Dr. Webster is skilled at managing each of these areas in careful partnership with his patients.
Dr. Webster has experience treating all types of medical conditions, including depression, anxiety, and personality disorders as well as childhood disorders such as ADHD and attachment disorders.
His academic interest lay in weaving culturally competent psychiatry, employing and exploring film in psychiatry, enhancing minority mental health advocacy, and the education of medical students, residents, colleagues, and others. With psychotherapy, Dr. Webster's area of expertise surrounds identify formation and related influences such as sexuality, gender, race, ethnicity, and cross-cultural concerns.
As America’s youth diversifies, access to mental health becomes more formidable, and world problems focus domestically, Dr. Webster is poised to address unique needs, challenges, and perceptions.
