Alexander Kwon, Psychiatrist
I attended medical school in South Korea and moved to the US after graduation. I was involved in research for new treatment options for brain tumors in Radiation Oncology. After years of research, I decided to pursue psychiatry with the vision of a more holistic approach to mental health care rather than just focusing on the pathology of the human brain. I take a comprehensive approach to understand each individual’s physical, mental, and social issues. I highly value the importance of psychopharmacology combined with psychotherapy and psychoanalytic assessment. I believe that good rapport with a provider is a foundation of good treatment. I use evidence-based practices with behavioral management techniques to help my patients. I treat patients with mood disorders, anxiety disorders, psychotic disorders, substance use disorders, personality disorders, developmental disorders, and other mental health issues. Clinical services in New Jersey are provided by New Jersey Behavioral Health PLLC.
