About My Clients
I specialize in Bipolar type 2 and Borderline personality disorder. I've also worked with many entrepreneurs since the publication of my book, The Hypomanic Edge: The Link Between (a Little) Craziness and (a Lot of ) Success in America. More recently I have become interested in psychedelic therapy, and am currently writing a book about it, "The Cosmic Consciousness Cure."
My Background and Approach
What's different about me is that after receiving traditional training, I've integrated it with meditation. Mindfulness, especially when combined with therapy, provides calm objective self-awareness that leads to self control, which may lessen the need for medication. More meditation can mean less medication. And I do believe many patients are overmedicated. I integrate aspects of DBT into my work. I also work quite often with entrepreneurs in what has become an integration of therapy and business coaching. See my website: https://johngartner.com/
