Josiah Ziegler graduated from Campbell University of Osteopathic Medicine in 2017. He completed his Psychiatry Residency at the University of Cincinnati, where he served as chief resident in 2021. He became board-certified in psychiatry in 2021 and has extensive training in advanced psychopharmacology, psychotherapy, and transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS).
My philosophy of care is deeply rooted in the latest scientific findings in psychiatry. I understand that mental health is a complex and multifaceted field, and I am committed to staying at the forefront of research to provide my patients with the most effective and innovative treatments available. By integrating the latest advancements in neurobiology, psychopharmacology and evidence-based psychotherapies, I ensure that my care is both scientifically sound and tailored to the unique needs of each individual I serve.
I believe that compassionate care is the cornerstone of effective mental health treatment. My approach is to build a therapeutic relationship based on mutual respect, empathy and understanding. I recognize that my patients are the experts in their own experiences, and I strive to create a safe and supportive environment where they feel heard and valued. This compassionate approach not only fosters trust but also enhances the healing process, allowing us to work together to achieve meaningful and lasting outcomes.
Collaboration is at the heart of everything I do. I view the treatment process as a partnership between myself and my patients. By involving them in every step of their care, from diagnosis to treatment planning and beyond, I empower my patients to take an active role in their recovery. This collaborative approach ensures that my patients are fully informed, engaged and motivated to achieve their mental health goals, leading to better outcomes and a higher quality of life.
“Dr. Ziegler does a wonderful job helping me figure out what are the best meds for me so I don't have a mental breakdown while I'm trying to get everything figured out from weight loss to My mental health meds. He really truly cares about what is best for me and it takes really good care of me. I am thankful I have such a good doctor.”
