Dr. Christopher Cox, MD, provides compassionate and evidence-based psychiatric care to individuals across Indiana. He specializes in medication management and individual therapy, helping clients navigate challenges related to ADHD, anxiety, bipolar disorder, depression, and PTSD/trauma. Dr. Cox tailors treatment plans to each client’s needs, integrating cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), exposure therapy, and mindfulness techniques to foster resilience and well-being. With expertise in substance use disorders, he also offers medication-assisted treatment to support those struggling with alcohol and drug use issues.

A particular focus of Dr. Cox’s practice is helping clients manage sleep disorders, obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD), and psychosis-related conditions. He understands the profound impact these concerns can have on daily life and works collaboratively with patients to develop strategies for lasting improvement. Whether addressing insomnia, intrusive thoughts, or schizophrenia-related symptoms, he provides a structured and empathetic approach that prioritizes both stability and long-term growth.

Dr. Cox welcomes clients from diverse backgrounds, including military veterans, men, and women, guiding them through life transitions, grief, and complex emotional challenges. His goal is to create a supportive environment where individuals feel empowered to take charge of their mental health.

Outside of his clinical work, Dr. Cox is a passionate musician with a deep appreciation for guitar and stringed instruments. He enjoys exploring foreign languages, reading multiple books at once, and staying active through Peloton workouts and weightlifting. A former rugby player and avid skier, he now enjoys following both sports in his free time.
