Dr. James Simonson, MD

Dr. James Simonson, MD is the owner and founder of Integrative Psychiatry of Oklahoma. Dr. Simonson’s goal – and therefore the entire clinic’s goal – is empowering patients to become stewards of their own mental health through integrative psychiatric practices and holistic wellness approaches. While western medicine focuses on alleviating symptoms and end-organ diseases, our treatment focuses on the whole patient to identify and treat mental health issues from the ground up.

The influence of insurance and other non-medical pressures too often dictates how long the doctor has to examine and counsel each patient as well as what therapies can be utilized. Stepping outside this traditional matrix allows for unique and personalized care which can address the whole patient rather than specific symptoms. Our goal is to help each patient become a mindful steward of their own mental and physical health by reaching a subjective level of peace in their own mind. This will, in turn, allow them to be more comfortable in society at large.  

COVID-19 brought with it a host of traumatic situations which have affected almost every single person on this planet.  Dr. Simonson seeks to help patients find some relief from the mental stresses brought on by COVID, the Western lifestyle of consumption and materialism, family trauma patterns, anxiety, depression, PTSD, and more. To that end, he hopes to form a bond of trust with each patient that allows for sincere exploration of one’s true self leading to healing and peace.

Our clinic promises supervision by a medical doctor. The treatment you receive here is driven by an MD’s perspective and you will always be under the care of a full-boarded Psychiatric Anesthesiologist. We treat the body, the mind and the connection between the two from a holistic and medical perspective.
