About
Dr. Costa’s approach combines evidence-based medication management with psychotherapy principles to provide personalized, comprehensive care. Rather than focusing only on symptoms, he works collaboratively with patients to understand the factors affecting their mental health and develops treatment plans that align with their values and goals. He believes the strongest therapeutic relationships are built on trust, collaboration, and mutual respect, and that the best psychiatric care begins with listening. Every person’s experience, challenges, and goals are unique, and he strives to create a welcoming, nonjudgmental environment where patients feel heard, respected, and understood.
Dr. Costa’s interest in psychiatry grew from recognizing how mental health can influence every aspect of life, including physical health, relationships, and overall quality of life. He recognizes that many individuals struggle not only with medical conditions but also with underlying mental health concerns that often go unnoticed or untreated. He was drawn to the opportunity to address those complementary challenges and help patients create meaningful, lasting change.
Outside of work, Dr. Costa enjoys traveling, exploring new restaurants and cuisines, running, and woodworking. Previously, he worked in a variety of different fields and had the opportunity to live and train in diverse regions. These experiences gave him a deep appreciation for different perspectives, cultures, and life experiences.
