Dr. David Eisenberg

I tend to listen and be supportive while trying to understand what is troubling my patients. I try to allow the patient to get in touch with the emotion inside them of which they might not be fully aware. I look for patterns and can be challenging when warranted. I have found that when there is a good relationship between patient and therapist, personal growth can occur, which allows patients to feel better about themselves and function better in their lives outside the therapy. I worked with veterans at Jesse Brown VA Medical Center in Chicago as an outpatient psychotherapist for 35 years.

a. You may search for a specific therapist or view all the therapists providing sessions for MHAGC.

b. To make an appointment you may do so by clicking the button below the therapist’s profile.

3. To make the appointment you will be taken to a Calendly calendar where you can see the therapist’s availability.

4. If you added an email – your email is used to set up the appointment. If you have not – a generic email is created to track the appointment and to make sure we have the appointment entered in the bridge2help.org site. PLEASE NOTE THE EMAIL WE CREATE IS NOT A USABLE EMAIL. IT IS ONLY FOR THE APPOINTMENT SET UP.

5. Please copy and paste or write the link to your appointment for future reference. Since you created a username and password, the link to your appointment will be in your record.
