Jacob Moussai MD

I found Dr. Moussai on accident, there were no reviews at the time. I am incredibly lucky. I actually would rather not have more people find out about him and it becomes harder to book an appointment :) but I remember the place I was in when I was really struggling — I would have given anything for some guidance on who to go to and what to expect. If you’re in a place like that — nothing to fear at his office; you will get the help you need without judgment or shame.
Psychiatrists get a (sometimes deservedly) bad rep as being doctors with prescription pads who go through a checklist of symptoms to strictly manage medication in short sessions. Dr Moussai operates on a well rounded basis of getting to know each individual, writing up detailed notes and utilizing talk therapy. It is powerful to have a medical doctor willing and able to do this. Dr. Moussai does not over prescribe or overlook. He fine tunes each treatment for the highest potential outcome each individual could have. He is perceptive and fully invested every moment in session, interested in his work and clients.
I’ve been seeing him for about three months and have already made small but progressive changes to improve my life and potential. This doctor gives reality checks where necessary and does not simply «nod in agreement,» rather questions and promotes critical thinking. Therapy with him feels like a discussion or dialogue — freeing and nonjudgmental.
There is nothing more liberating than investing in yourself, getting to the root of issues/​concerns and addressing them. The challenge is finding someone so well equipped to help. Dr Moussai is a talented game changer to his field and I would recommend him to anyone.

I feel so lucky that I found Jacob, I am confident that the time spent with him (just over a year) absolutely changed the course of my life for the better. His is the perfect combination of MD and therapist, meaning he listens and is empathetic, but always comes back to the facts. He does not placate but instead enables the patient to face the reality of their actions and feelings and helps them move forward in their life.
I moved recently and sadly had to leave Jacob; I have met with 2 other therapists who don’t come anywhere close to him… hope I find someone else even half as good as him.

Dr. Moussai is a wonderful psychiatrist who uses both medication and talk therapy to treat the various issues of his patients. I truly feel that he is easy to speak with and makes me feel comfortable opening up in a nonjudgmental environment. He also pushes to get to the root of the problems. He is understanding, sympathetic and caring. I would recumbent Dr. Moussai to anyone looking for a psychiatrist.
