Dr. Gil Lichtshein

Behind our psychiatric providers is another important member of the Bravely Balanced clinical team.

Dr. Gil Lichtshein is a board-certified psychiatrist with decades of experience in psychiatric medicine.

His career has included adult psychiatry, child and adolescent psychiatry, psychiatric medication management, telepsychiatry, academic medicine, and the treatment of patients experiencing depression and other mood disorders.

Dr. Lichtshein completed his medical education at the University of Illinois College of Medicine, followed by psychiatry residency training and fellowship training in Child and Adolescent Psychiatry at the University of Maryland.

His career has also included academic involvement in psychiatry and behavioral sciences.

One of the reasons Dr. Lichtshein was such a natural fit for Bravely Balanced is his experience with modern approaches to treating difficult-to-treat depression, including ketamine therapy and Spravato®.

As Bravely Balanced's collaborating psychiatrist, Dr. Lichtshein provides physician collaboration and serves as an experienced psychiatric resource for our clinical team.

Our providers maintain responsibility for evaluating and treating their individual patients. Physician collaboration adds another layer of psychiatric experience they can turn to when a patient is complex, higher-risk, or would benefit from additional clinical perspective.

We believe good clinicians should never have to practice on an island.
