"Since 2006, Joseph Gulino has worked with adults, adolescents and children who pursue psychiatric treatment for a wide variety of disorders, including anxiety, depression, bipolar disorder, substance abuse, ADHD, pediatric behavioral problems, and autism.
Joseph Gulino attended medical school at Virginia Commonwealth University, followed by a residency in General Psychiatry and a fellowship in Child and Adolescent Psychiatry at the Medical University of South Carolina. Since then, Dr. Gulino has worked in both inpatient and outpatient settings, and eventually opened his private practice in Beverly Hills.
In his psychiatry practice, Joseph Gulino emphasizes the importance of accurate diagnosis and a comprehensive treatment plan based on the individual needs of the patient. He begins by taking a full clinical inventory of the patient’s mental health status along with the internal and external factors that contribute to it. This includes a psychological assessment, as well as a physical, social and family history. Once a differential diagnosis has been formulated, Dr. Gulino discusses treatment options, which may include medication, lifestyle changes, psychodynamic psychotherapy, cognitive behavioral therapy, or a combination of interventions. His patients are always fully apprised of any potential risks and benefits of the treatment plan and are involved in the decision-making process from the outset."
