Dr. George is a board-certified psychiatrist committed to providing high quality,
evidence-based treatment to adults. She works hard to nurture a supportive environment in which patients will feel comfortable describing their symptoms and
circumstances. She chooses medications with favorable side effect profiles whenever possible so that patients can tolerate and continue their medications long-term if
need be. She places great importance on the value of the relationship between the provider and the patient as it is the foundation for healing.

recognized for clinical excellence and for excellence in research. She has worked in a variety of mental health settings including psychiatric ERs, crisis walk-in centers,
outpatient clinics, inpatient units, and as an Assistant Professor of Psychiatry at PennState College of Medicine where she taught psychiatry residents and medical students.
She has over 10 years of clinical experience and has been in private practice for the past 5 years.
Her primary areas of expertise include bipolar disorder, depression, anxiety disorders, PTSD, and OCD.
