“I have the Black Dog on my back.”

Winston Churchill’s powerful words capture the feeling of being weighed down by an invisible burden—his metaphor for the depression that often overshadowed his life.

But what’s fascinating is that Churchill didn’t just sit with the Black Dog. He faced it, fought through it, and went on to shape history.

The truth is, mental health challenges come in many forms - depression, anxiety, personality structures, PTSD, ADHD, OCD, psychosis, and more.

At Black Dog Psychiatry, we understand the struggles that come with these invisible burdens. We’re here to help you confront your challenges with courage, face them head-on, and reclaim your life.

No matter how heavy the Black Dog may be.

Our vision

At Black Dog Psychiatry, our vision is to create a safe and confidential space where patients are seen, heard, and understood—not reduced to symptoms or diagnoses.

We believe that healing begins with trust, and that meaningful change requires more than just protocols—it demands presence, curiosity, and care tailored to the individual. Our approach is rooted in neuroscience and clinical evidence, but always centered on the unique life circumstances of each person we work with.

We integrate therapy and medications when appropriate, understanding that no two paths to healing look exactly the same. Whether you're navigating depression, anxiety, trauma, or simply a sense of being stuck, we meet you where you are—with honesty, clarity, and respect.

In our initial sessions, we’ll explore what’s bringing you in and begin crafting a plan that aligns with your goals, values, and experiences. Most clients begin to notice positive changes within the first few weeks—not because we promise quick fixes, but because the work is real, and it starts from day one.
