About

Edward Oklan, MD

Welcome to my psychiatry, psychotherapy and family counseling practice. I serve adults, children and teens throughout the San Francisco Bay Area with offices in Marin, Sonoma & Contra Costa. It is my goal to work in partnership with you to consider all factors which may be influencing your mental health and well being, and together design a "health recovery plan" to support your own resilience and innate healing response.

My philosophy is pragmatic, not theoretical. The focus is not merely on the treatment of symptoms of disorder, but on achieving health, a higher level of function, and a renewed sense of purpose, meaning, and joy. I strive to provide responsive and effective help with compassion and respect, and believe it is a privilege to be in a position to help you, and make a difference in people’s lives and future.

Dr Oklan is expensive, but very good and thorough. I wish I had gone to him before spending so much money on an alternative practitioner who completely missed my depression/anxiety relapse symptoms. But at least she referred me to Dr. O. He spent a long time with me on the initial visit and his diagnosis made sense to me. I didn't have to wait any time at all before my appointment. He was ready for me right when I got there.

Dr. Oklan is a warm, friendly and knowledgeable person who has helped not only me, but my two children as well. He is very insightful, a good listener and seeing him is always a pleasant experience. I would not hesitate to recommend him to anyone needing help with a range of emotional and behavioral issues.
