Michael Yasinski, MD

My mission is to provide the most personalized care experience possible and help you to heal yourself

Compassion

Compassion is key. I draw on my experience as a psychiatrist and my own life struggles to relate to you with no judgment. Compassion allows me to connect with you, make you feel comfortable and ultimately help you.

Passion

I have a passion for human connection, including making meaningful connections with each patient. My treatment approach is simple: I marry the needs of each patient with the most relevant ideas in the field of psychiatry to create effective treatment plans.

Optimization

Optimization is my end goal for every patient. Together we will take attainable steps to help you to feel better as quickly as possible. I also strive to optimize how you feel long-term by identifying and addressing every underlying issue.

Philosophy of Practice

 
 

I am passionate about optimizing people’s mental health. I am not traditional in terms of how I practice. I believe in identifying all underlying causes, looking closely at nutrition, utilizing unconventional medications when needed, implementing ketamine assisted psychotherapy and utilizing exercise to build momentum to change.

My mission is to provide the most personalized psychiatric care experience possible. I am one of the few psychiatrists in Scottsdale to provide 45 minute appointments. I do this because I believe it is crucial to spend adequate time with each patient. The client-doctor relationship is key to achieving a successful outcome and I don’t believe shorter appointments achieve this.

I believe in supporting your ability to heal yourself. I am with you on the journey to support and guide you but I feel all humans have the ability to draw on our innate ability to self-heal.
