General Info
The medical specialty of psychiatry deals with the physical, emotional and mental disorders that affect how we think, feel and behave. A myriad of physical disorders (i.e., hypothyroidism, brain tumor, and stroke) can result in emotional disturbances. Severe psychosocial stress can bring on a myriad of physical disorders (i.e., irritable bowel syndrome, eczema, hypercholesterolemia, asthma, etc.). Hence, a physician working in this specialty (a psychiatrist) has received intensive medical training in order to separate the physical causes of mental illness from the emotional causes. He or she is capable of physical and mental diagnosis and of being able to prescribe a treatment plan which could include counseling, psychotherapy, medication and, if need be, hospitalization. He or she is also responsible to ensure that your physical state is not the cause of your current emotional state. Dr. Stewart Schwartz specializes in various approaches to individual, couple and family psychotherapy with expertise in child, adolescent and adult psychopharmacology. Dr. Schwartz also specializes in forensic psychiatry and medical acupuncture. As a psychiatrist, Dr. Schwartz works along with your primary care physician (PCP) in order that your entire wellbeing is cared for. Physical/medical conditions that are causative are ruled in or out.
