Zachary Harris

As a Harvard-trained psychiatrist and psychotherapist, I help emerging adults, young professionals, and high functioning adults who are struggling with depression, anxiety, and unresolved trauma connect with their emotions, navigate life transitions, and feel more fulfilled. I offer a holistic approach to medication management as well as a specialized approach to treatment that may involve weekly or biweekly psychodynamic psychotherapy with the thoughtful consideration of medication treatment. My hope is that our work together can help you move forward in alignment with your evolving sense of who and how you hope to be in the world.

I offer medication treatment in the context of a warm relationship that seeks to understand, and not just medicate away symptoms. Medications can be a tool in addition to therapy that may allow you to feel more safe and secure as we work to understand and alleviate your suffering.

My treatment philosophy is informed by my clinical training in psychiatry at Harvard, undergraduate studies in religion and philosophy, and continued training in psychodynamic therapy and Jungian analysis. I am seeing patients in person at my office in Highland Park, Il as well as virtually.
