Dr. Dennis Dorf

Psychiatrist

Virtual • Atlanta, GA


Hello and welcome to comprehensive psychiatric services at DMD Health and Wellness!

As a General (Adult) and Child/Adolescent Psychiatrist, I am passionate about empowering all ages on their journey towards mental health and well-being.

I completed a residency in General Psychiatry and fellowship in Child & Adolescent Psychiatry at Georgia's prestigious medical college, one of the oldest medical schools in the nation. This expert, specialized training has equipped me with the skills and knowledge to understand the unique psychological needs of children, adolescents, and adults.

I am a Board Certified Psychiatrist, Board Certified Child/Adolescent Psychiatrist, and am also a Board Certified Pediatrician (triple-trained in General Pediatrics, General Psychiatry, and Child/Adolescent Psychiatry). I completed a pediatrics residency at NYC’s only academic Children’s Hospital in Brooklyn, SUNY Downstate, with additional pediatric and psychiatric internships at Brooklyn’s Maimonides Medical Center.

I graduated with my medical degree (Doctorate) with clinical accolades from New York’s oldest osteopathic medical school, NYIT.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Therapist in Georgia

Searching for therapists in Georgia starts with finding someone whose training fits your needs. Across the state, therapy options vary between larger cities, suburbs, and rural areas, so it helps to look closely at each therapist’s specialties and approach. If you are looking for support with anxiety, depression, grief, relationship challenges, trauma, or life transitions, review whether a therapist lists experience with those concerns. You can also look for approaches such as cognitive behavioral therapy, eye movement desensitization and reprocessing, acceptance and commitment therapy, or trauma-informed care.

Your search may look different in Atlanta, Savannah, Augusta, or other parts of Georgia. Some people prefer in-person appointments close to home or work, while others choose virtual sessions to fit care into their schedule. Beyond specialty, consider whether a therapist is accepting new clients, offers appointment times that work for you, and provides a free phone consultation. Reading therapist bios before booking can help you understand how they describe their style, what a first session may include, and whether their background matches what you want from therapy.

The cost of mental health care in Georgia varies, but using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs. Headway helps you search for Georgia therapists who are accepting new clients, verify your insurance, and see your estimated out-of-pocket cost before you book. Nationally, Headway works with over 100 insurance plans, and your exact coverage depends on your plan and location. You can browse therapists, compare profiles, and book directly when you are ready.
