Overview
Gretchen Hermes, MD, PhD, specializes in addiction psychiatry, providing care for individuals with addiction-related illnesses and co-occurring psychiatric diagnoses, including depression, anxiety, and psychotic spectrum illnesses.
Dr. Hermes emphasizes facilitating change and optimizing learning as chief psychiatrist at the Yale Stress Center. "If a therapy doesn't work, we will work together to find one that does," she says.
In her capacity as an associate professor of psychiatry at Yale School of Medicine, Dr. Hermes explores the effects of medications on drug craving and withdrawal, as well as the long-term impacts of early life trauma compared to acute stress. Dr. Hermes is also involved in studies on the role of certain proteins in mental illness, which could represent a shift in understanding the energy and biogenesis involved in these conditions.
Dr. Hermes received her medical degree from the University of Chicago Pritzker School of Medicine and completed her residency at Yale School of Medicine. She also completed post-doctoral work in infectious disease and psychoanalytic training at the Western New England Institute for Psychoanalysis.
