Geoffrey Talis, MD, is a member of Summit Health’s Behavioral Health team. Dr. Talis's pursuit of medicine evolved from a fascination with cellular and molecular biology. He was curious about how about how stress, nutrition, and exercise impacted our physical and mental health at a cellular level. This curiosity led him to discover psychiatry as his best career fit in medicine.

Dr. Talis specializes in Integrative Psychiatry and Psychotherapy. He primarily treats adults who have difficulty managing their levels of stress, mood, anxiety, and concentrating abilities. He treats psychiatric disorders like major depressive disorder (MDD), generalized anxiety disorder (GAD), obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD), post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), and attention deficit-hyperactivity disorder (ADHD). "I see people as whole individuals with unique experiences and inner worlds, rather than an over-simplified checklist of symptoms. Individualizing care for my patients is my top priority," Dr. Talis says.

Establishing a genuine connection with his patients is the most important thing to Dr. Talis during any appointment. "I love learning about people's unique experiences, how those experiences have shaped who they are today, and how we can work together to bring about better health in whatever form that takes," Dr. Talis shares.

When Dr. Talis is not helping his patients, he enjoys hiking, weight-lifting, playing video games, and spending quality time with his family. He is deeply committed to enhancing personal and professional well-being for both patients and physicians.
