Christopher Bermant, Psychiatrist
Chris Bermant, MD, is dedicated to helping adults and seniors in Wisconsin manage a wide range of mental health concerns through a combination of individual therapy and medication management. He specializes in treating ADHD, anxiety, depression, bipolar disorder, and psychosis, providing tailored care for each patient’s unique needs. Whether patients are navigating the complexities of PTSD, obsessive-compulsive disorder, or the emotional impact of grief, Chris brings a compassionate and clinically informed approach to support them in their healing journey. A particular focus of Chris’s practice is working with individuals recently discharged from psychiatric hospitals, offering critical follow-up care to ensure stability and progress. He is passionate about helping patients reintegrate into their daily lives after hospitalization, guiding them through ongoing recovery with the support they need. Chris also works with individuals on the autism spectrum and those with developmental disabilities, making sure to create an inclusive and understanding environment for all his patients. In addition to his expertise in mental health conditions, Chris is committed to serving specialized populations, including first responders, military veterans, and the LGBTQ+ community. His approach is informed by a deep understanding of the unique stressors and challenges these groups may face, and he works collaboratively with each patient to develop strategies that promote resilience and mental well-being. Outside of his practice, Chris enjoys staying active with his Peloton and finds relaxation in reading Charles Dickens novels. He also loves spending time outdoors, especially camping, which helps him recharge and maintain balance in his personal life.
