Can anyone here reccomend a good psychiatrist in Brooklyn ?
One that takes insurance or is fairly inexpensive.

Is it better to deal with someone frum, if part of the problem has to do with yiddishkait?
December 12, 2012 7:25 pm at 7:25 pm #913007YW Moderator-007ModeratorSure sure. Just change your diaper Joseph, and everything will be just fine.
December 12, 2012 7:28 pm at 7:28 pm #913008HealthParticipantThis is a question for Superman. No really – contact the Org. “Relief” – they can help you. They will fit a Shrink for you. It will be the best for you whether Frum or not.

December 12, 2012 7:42 pm at 7:42 pm #913010yytzParticipantRebbeRHershel: Don’t mind them, they’re just joking around about the frequent poster (under different names) Joseph. I don’t have any specific recommendations for psychiatrists in Brooklyn, but I recommend you contact the therapist Rabbi Daniel Eidensohn (you can find his blog online), to see if he can help you, or point you towards someone he recommends. He wrote his book Daas Torah after he realized that many of his therapy clients didn’t have psychological problems — rather they had hashkafic problems.
December 12, 2012 7:42 pm at 7:42 pm #913011TheRebbeRHershelMemberI asked a serious question, why do you guys have to be so demeaning?
December 12, 2012 8:07 pm at 8:07 pm #913012TheGoqParticipantWhy don’t you go see Dr. A. Y. Akup
December 12, 2012 8:46 pm at 8:46 pm #913013ZeesKiteParticipantMod007 – in my humblekite, I thought a Mod should be slightly more moderate.
December 12, 2012 8:54 pm at 8:54 pm #913014just my hapenceParticipantZeesKite – In my humblepence, I thought a ZeesKite should be more zees.
December 12, 2012 9:25 pm at 9:25 pm #913015nishtdayngesheftParticipantThere seem to be a number of people who can tell you psychiatrists who are ineffective based on their own experiences.

December 12, 2012 11:53 pm at 11:53 pm #913017funnyboneParticipantUsually, when I look for a specialist, I ask my doctor for a referral… why don’t you go that route??
December 13, 2012 4:48 am at 4:48 am #913018ZeesKiteParticipantI don’t get it “just my hapence”, what’s so not sweet about my question. All I asked is why someone here is offered a Size Ten beating.
December 13, 2012 8:20 am at 8:20 am #913019FG1MemberThere is an organization called Relief that offers mental health care referral services specifically geared to the Jewish community. Their phone number for Brooklyn referrals is 718-431-9501
December 13, 2012 9:39 am at 9:39 am #913020just my hapenceParticipantZeeskite – I just found your comment mildly ironic given that on other threads you have ably demonstrated your ability to be just a tiny teeny weeny bit rude and decidedly unzees.
December 13, 2012 3:32 pm at 3:32 pm #913021WIYMemberZeeskite
I guess if she were a size 8 she wouldn’t get a beating.
December 13, 2012 3:59 pm at 3:59 pm #913022ZeesKiteParticipantWIY, I think that’s a he.
December 13, 2012 4:07 pm at 4:07 pm #913023ZeesKiteParticipant“just my hapence”, I don’t try to be “rude and decidedly unzees”, even a teeny weeny bit. Except when it comes to defending the honor of HaShem, His Gedolim, and His Torah. The folks here know me, too. Ask ’em.
December 13, 2012 7:46 pm at 7:46 pm #913024just my hapenceParticipantI’m sorry, Zeeskite, but referring to someone who thinks that a troll’s random chumra may not be m’ikkar ha’din as the yetzer horah (you called ‘old man’, and I quote, “Old Foolish King”, which, as you pointed out is how Shlomo Hamelech referred to the yetzer horah) is not “defending the honor of HaShem, His Gedolim, and His Torah.” It’s rude. Putting down anyone who doesn’t agree with your hashkofos and disregarding the gadlus of certain Gedolim (when it was pointed out to you that not all Gedolim held as you thought, you decided that they weren’t ‘Toarah-true Gedolim’) is not “defending the honor of HaShem, His Gedolim, and His Torah.” It’s not only rude, but a p’gam in Kovod Hatorah. You may not be trying to be rude, but you’re managing very well.
December 13, 2012 8:50 pm at 8:50 pm #913025ZeesKiteParticipantIf you keep attacking me, I’m gonna need a .. “Good psychiatrist”
What called me out on that was the derogatory tone used. I almost never mix into content. And, mind you, I wasn’t the only one to take issue with that.
December 13, 2012 9:34 pm at 9:34 pm #913026just my hapenceParticipantZeeskite – derogatory tone or not, his post was in no way an affront to HaShem, torah or Gedolim. It was pointing out that someone has interpreted something in a rather over-the-top manner. That’s to do with the person not HaShem. And your response was unjustified.
December 14, 2012 5:56 am at 5:56 am #913027The TherapistMemberTry going to the Jewish Board of Family and Children’s Services. You can get affordable psychiatric care as well as quality and affordable therapists (I know the branch in BP has a very good reputation). Hatzlacha
December 14, 2012 9:19 am at 9:19 am #913028write or wrongParticipantAnother suggestion, aside from JBFS would be to speak to the psychiatric department of a top notch hospital, and get a referral from them. Also,Dr David Pelcovitz, although a psychologist, would probably be able to recommend somebody good. Hatzlacha

Now this week, we have seen the full truth of how correct Rav Avigdor Miller ZT’L was. I heard him say so many times, that psychiatrist themselves require a psychiatrist, and counselors themselves require a counselor.
This was true Da’as Toroh of the highest caliber.
Meanwhile, Rav Avigdor Miller ZT’L is probably busy introducing his [oldest] son-in-law to Yeshiva Shel Ma’aloh & to Gan Eden.
December 14, 2012 1:37 pm at 1:37 pm #913030welldressed007ParticipantIf the shoe were on the other foot how would you react then? To be judgmental is not a healthy attribute, be nice and what goes around comes around. The golden rule.
December 14, 2012 2:46 pm at 2:46 pm #9130312scentsParticipant147,
Another thing Rav Avigdor Miller ZT’L said, is that men should only seek help from men and ladies from ladies.
Avraham Migayer es ha’anushim, V’sara migayeres es hanoshim.
He stated that he is aware of a case, in which a young man tried to help a young women and he got hooked onto her..
