Wilcox Claire MD

As a board-certified psychiatrist and addiction specialist, I bring decades of clinical experience and academic rigor to addressing complex mental health challenges. My practice focuses on the intersection of psychiatry, addiction medicine, and nutritional neuroscience, with particular expertise in food addiction and eating disorders. Through my research at institutions like the Mind Research Network and University of New Mexico, I've developed evidence-based approaches that bridge clinical practice and cutting-edge science. My work as an author and educator aims to demystify addiction mechanisms while providing actionable strategies for recovery. With certifications in both general and addiction psychiatry, I combine motivational interviewing techniques with pharmacotherapy to create personalized treatment plans.

My academic background includes training at top-tier institutions such as University of California at San Francisco and University of Minnesota, ensuring a foundation of medical excellence. As editor-in-chief of the Chapter House Journal, I stay at the forefront of psychiatric research while maintaining a patient-centered approach. My publications and public speaking engagements reflect a commitment to making complex neuroscience accessible to both professionals and the general public. Through telehealth consultations and written resources, I strive to reach individuals struggling with addictive behaviors across diverse settings. My clinical interests span from transcranial magnetic stimulation for treatment-resistant depression to understanding the neurobiology of compulsive overeating.
