Counseling

Let Dr. Doug Welpton help you improve your life and your relationships.

I help people change their lives. I am a Licensed physician and a Board certified psychiatrist.  I am trained and certified to counsel individuals, couples, and families.

My forty plus years in counseling enable me to get to the heart of your problem quickly to help you bring about the change you want.  I combine my experience and knowledge with caring.  My goal is to understand each person who comes to me in order to help you with your unique concerns.

Your record is private; it is not electronic or accessible through the internet. Your information can be shared only when you give me permission and sign a release of your record.

I do not take insurance so you can come to me directly without needing a referral and you do not need to be diagnosed with a mental illness.

I have a full practice but I do my best to be available as time allows.  I apologize for times when my practice is so busy I cannot get back to you.

I set my fees based on my training and years of experience. You may discuss your fee and any special circumstances with me. I accept cash or checks.  PayPal payment costs an added 3%.

I am a graduate of Harvard Medical School and Stanford University.  I completed my Residency training in Psychiatry at the Massachusetts Mental Health Center and the Beth Israel Hospital both in Boston.  I am a psychoanalyst and graduate of the Boston Psychoanalytic Institute.  I trained in family therapy in a fellowship at the National Institute of Mental Health in Bethesda. I personally trained  and am certified in Imago Relationship Therapy for Couples and Singles with Harville Hendrix,  in Codependence counseling with Pia Mellody, and in Voice Dialog therapy with Hal & Sidra Stone.
