Joseph W. Mullen

Life is difficult on everyone and it’s not uncommon for someone to need support, guidance, and sometimes medication to navigate through life’s challenges. My clinical interest is in treatment of the person, as a whole. This includes having healthy, supportive persons in our lives, getting proper nutrition and exercise, as well as incorporating meditation and other complimentary treatments that will enhance a person’s treatment and life. The importance of developing a balance between work, family, friends, hobbies and other leisure activities is vital.

I believe the key to treating any medical illness, including mental health, largely involves lifestyle changes over the long term. There can also be times of crisis with short term needs that require the appropriate intensity of interventions in order to meet these acute symptoms. I work with my patients on both of these presenting circumstances.

I also enjoy working with people in individual psychotherapy that are curious about themselves, to seek a better understanding of their internal drives in an effort to improve themselves and their lives. I received my Doctor of Osteopathic Medicine degree from Michigan State University in 1999, am Board Certified in General Psychiatry, and I have worked as an outpatient Psychiatrist serving a variety of patient needs. I enjoy treating adults and have particular interest in the treatment of mood and anxiety disorders.
