Child & Adolescent Psychiatric Physician

Ian Pearson, MD

-

As a psychiatrist who is double board certified in both Child and Adolescent psychiatry as well
as General adult psychiatry, I believe that all stages of life and development are important. I’m
here to help you meet your goals and coach you through the skills that can provide lifelong
improvement. I am well versed in the most recent developments in medication management,
neuropsychiatric interventions, and psychotherapy, which I have cultivated through my medical
training at Rush University, residency training at Loyola University, and fellowship training at
Washington University in St. Louis.

I specialize in working with children and teens, as well as adults, with a focus on managing
ADHD, post-traumatic stress disorder, depression, anxiety, obsessive-compulsive disorder,
bipolar disorder, schizophrenia, personality disorders, and autism spectrum disorder. While we
do not currently have the ability to provide medication-assisted therapy for the management of
addiction, I do additionally have extensive experience in addiction treatment and would be more
than happy to discuss these issues with my patients. The team at West County Behavioral
Health provides a unique opportunity for integrated care for our patients, and this leads to
superior outcomes.  I hope that you will give us the chance to help you on the next stage of your
journey.
