Guiding You Through Life’s Many Transitions
Many of life’s most significant transitions are complex and involve difficult choices and decisions. For people suffering from anxiety, depression or other mental health disorders, facing a major life event can increase or exacerbate symptoms, making decisions extremely difficult - or for some, nearly impossible.
Karen B. Rosenbaum, M.D. specializes in helping patients work through these experiences. She brings to her practice a focus on mind-body balance, spirituality, as well as her training in mindfulness practices and yoga . Over the years, she has helped her many patients navigate complex decisions about school, relationships, careers, parenting, and much more.
Dr. Rosenbaum also treats a wide variety of psychiatric conditions, including:
Adjustment Disorders
Adjustment disorders include a group of symptoms, such as stress, feelings of sadness or hopelessness, as well as physical symptoms that can occur after you go through a stressful or traumatic life event.
Eating Disorders
Eating disorders are both serious medical and psychological conditions. Disordered thinking or beliefs about food and body image may lead you to eat much less or much more than you need. They affect your body's ability to get proper nutrition, frequently with severe physical and psychic ramifications.
Personality Disorders
Personality disorders involve long-term patterns of thoughts and behaviors that are unhealthy and inflexible. The behaviors cause serious problems with relationships and work. Sometimes others are more bothered by the symptoms than the person who has the disorder. Examples of personality disorders include Avoidant Personality Disorder, Borderline Personality Disorder, and Narcissistic Personality Disorder
Anxiety Disorders
For a person with an anxiety disorder, anxiety can persist or worsen over time. Symptoms can interfere with relationships, and daily activities such as job performance or schoolwork.
Mood Disorders
A mood disorder affects a person's everyday emotional state. Nearly one in 10 people aged 18 and older has a mood disorder. This category includes depression and bipolar disorder.
Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder
PTSD can develop after a person experiences or witnesses a traumatic event. Such traumatic events could include combat, a natural disaster or pandemic, a serious illness, sexual assault, or the loss of a loved one. It may or may not be life-threatening.
… and many other mental health conditions.
