Everyone knows someone with a mental health issue but do they know a psychiatrist? Do you know what your psychiatrist is thinking? How did they decide to become a psychiatrist? How do they make diagnoses and treatment decisions?Get into the mind of a psychiatrist with over 35 years experience. Read his memoir. Learn his secrets both personal and therapeutic. It might help you or someone you know. Written without psychobabble so the patient, family and mental health clinician can understand. Written with case histories so that everyone could stay awake.Now newly revised and expanded second edition with more stories and more treatment strategies.This is the new and revised second edition of Psychiatry in Techno Colors. This second edition adds nine new essays with updated clinical pearls and annotations to the original chapters including information on new medications. It provides more detailed strategies for making diagnoses that hopefully lead to better treatment outcomes. Psychiatry has much to offer yet many patients suffer from long treatment trials driven by "evidenced based" treatment guidelines derived from reliable but invalid diagnoses. The author, Neil Liebowitz, M.D. is the founder and director of the Connecticut Anxiety and Depression Treatment Center in Farmington, Connecticut. In this collection of essays he tells clinical pearls about the evolution of modern psychiatric treatment. These are personal stories of the author and his patients that illustrate some of the dilemmas and possible solutions for key psychiatric problems. From growing up on suburban Long Island to residency training at Yale, to an academic career at the University of Connecticut, lessons were learned about how best to understand psychiatric problems and a strategy to treat them. Its stories and ideas are meant to help others to become better patients and clinicians. With over 30 years of psychiatric practice including supervising residents, nurse practitioners and medical students and running a full time private psychiatric practice he has accumulated experiential knowledge which he is eager to share with others. The author hopes that some of his ideas might be tested in the future with more rigorous investigative techniques to either provide support for or show them to be inaccurate observations. Dr. Liebowitz graduated as an Echols scholar and Phi Beta Kappa from the University of Virginia in 1978. He worked as a research assistant at Stanford University during a year off from college in 1977. He graduated from Stony Brook University Medical School in 1982 including psychiatry clerkship at Long Island Jewish/ Hillside Hospital during the release of DSM III. A Psychiatry sub-internship was completed at Columbia University Psychiatric Institute in 1981. He completed his psychiatric residency at Yale University in 1986. After completion he joined the Psychiatry faculty at the University of Connecticut where he remains an assistant clinical professor. He opened the Connecticut Anxiety and Depression treatment center in 1994. His peripatetic training provided for a diversity of learning experiences with a need to make sense of very diverse and divergent expert opinions.The price has been kept low to encourage wider distribution.
