Meet Dr. Poscablo-Stein
Dr. Cristina Poscablo-Stein is a general adult psychiatrist who treats a wide range of mental health conditions. She began developing her unique healing philosophy during medical school, where she became interested in the emerging field of integrative medicine. Psychiatry was not on her radar as a career. Surprisingly, the biopsychosocial model of mental illness she learned in her psychiatry rotations brought welcome complexity and dimension to the human experiences of health.
Dr. Poscablo-Stein has grown Wellspring Integrative Psychiatry on the belief that optimal psychiatric care lies in understanding the whole person as well as their symptoms and working toward mind-body wellness—rather than simply alleviating symptoms.
Wellspring Integrative Psychiatry is located in the Grant Park neighborhood of Atlanta, Georgia.
