PsychFilter: Moving to Crestview, FL (close-ish to Pensacola) -- can anyone recommend a good psychiatrist? Bonus points if you can also recommend a good therapist, preferably one who specializes in DBT/CBT.

I have no idea but I could put one together. I used google maps to find Crestview Fl. and entered "psychiatrist" in "search near by" and found 7 or 8. By clicking on "more about" you start getting a picture of the different psychiatrists--School. hospital affiliations, ratings, etc. I would narrow it down to 2-3 and then start doing google searches. Look for years of experience, Board Certification, specialty areas, law suits, etc. I bet you will be surprised. If medication is an important issue, and it probably is, I would look for ones with special schooling/certification in psychopharmacology, pharmacology, papers published, research,participation in clinical trials, etc.
If you find one or two which particularly interest you I would be glad to do a bit more research for you. Good Luck, I would do the same for CBT/DBT.
