Curtis Stennett, MD

I provide treatment for people who find they are not accomplishing their goals or functioning as well as they would like to in some aspect of their lives. Many times, this is due to things that seem out of their control. I enjoy working with patients to develop individualized plans that address their areas of concern; in the process, sometimes people discover they have more control than they thought.

Some people find that due to biological, genetic, or some other reasons they are predisposed to have trouble with mood, anxiety, emotional dysregulation or other problems that would potentially be amenable to treatment with medication.

​If an issue is identified that is likely to respond to medication, I work with patients to identify the one that is right for them. I also have experience treating people who desire to minimize or eliminate medications altogether.
