Dr. Mark Sylvester, MD

Psychiatrist | Integrative & Functional Medicine Specialist

Dr. Mark Sylvester is a board-certified psychiatrist with over 20 years of experience providing compassionate, comprehensive mental health care. Known for his deep commitment to uncovering the root causes of psychiatric and chronic health conditions, Dr. Sylvester brings a unique integrative approach that blends traditional psychiatry with evidence-based functional medicine.

At Alternative Psychiatry, Dr. Sylvester works with patients experiencing complex mental health challenges—such as treatment-resistant depression, anxiety, trauma, and mood disorders—as well as those navigating underlying issues like inflammation, gut dysfunction, hormone imbalance, mold toxicity, or heavy metal burden. His goal is not simply to manage symptoms, but to promote long-term healing and resilience by addressing the mind-body connection.

Dr. Sylvester believes that every patient’s story matters. He collaborates closely with each individual to develop personalized treatment plans that may include lifestyle and nutritional interventions, targeted supplementation, detoxification protocols,

and medication management when appropriate.
