Integrative Psychiatry Solutions 

Brandon Vance, MD

Are you feeling stuck in your relationships, your job and/or with your feelings?  Your goals, along with principles of Sustainability, Empowerment, and the most Efficient and Effective ways to help you get unstuck and living the life you want to live, deep Respect for all people, regardless of identity, beliefs, and the ways we show up in the world and in our bodies, are my guiding principles.  I've used those principles to guide learning of a wide variety of skills and tools and using those in my over 20 years of practice, 18 of which have been as a board-certified psychiatrist.  

Because I want you facilitate you developing tools to feel well, stay well, and do the kinds of things you want to do in life without the need for me, much of my work focuses on psychotherapy.  Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Accelerated Resolution Therapy (ART), Eye Movement Desensitization Reprocessing (EMDR), Hypnotherapy, Ketamine Assisted Therapy, and the NADA Acupuncture protocol are some of the techniques I use for individuals and groups of individuals working on their own patterns.  I am also starting to use some IFS (Internal Family Systems) approaches.   My knowledge of biology and medicine, psychiatric and otherwise, helps me keep the whole person in mind and allows me to make use of diagnostics, medications and supplements and teaching people breathing techniques, mindfulness, dietary measures, ways to sleep better, etc.

With Couples, in addition to CBT interpersonal techniques, I  also use Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT), an evidence-based therapy that gets to the heart of difficult patterns and works effectively to develop a healthier, more secure bond between the members of the couple, increasing safety, intimacy, ease and effectiveness. 

My I find therapy in a Group context to be especially effective, affordable and to have advantages over individual therapy for a number of people.  For that reason, much of my international and local teaching and educational groups as well as some of my psychotherapy is done in a group format where people can learn from each other and get support and understanding as well as developing skills and techniques.  Please see some of the self-help groups that I run at www.feelinggreattherapycenter.com/eductional-groups.

In addition to therapeutics, I also do consulting for organizations big and small around powerful communication techniques such as the 5 Secrets of Effective Communication (which is amazing for helping shift difficult patterns of interactions at works and improving workplace satisfaction and happiness), motivational techniques and ways to thrive in your business and business relationships, in addition to sessions tailored towards executives.  I also consult with mental health organizations around the biology of mental illness and biological treatments.  sions are collaborative, empowering, and focused on your goals and I get feedback after each session so I can tailor my sessions to you.  Please contact me to discuss what's going on and how I might be helpful. I look forward to hearing from you!
