Biography

Si Steinberg, MD, is a Double Board Certified Child and Adolescent and Adult Psychiatrist who obtained his medical degree at the University of Michigan Medical School, his internship and residency training at UCLA Neuropsychiatric Institute and his Child Fellowship at Dartmouth Hitchcock Medical Center. He has been in clinical practice for the past 26 years in Idaho and Oregon, USA respectively. He is the Medical Director at Cherry Gulch a Therapeutic Boarding School in Idaho and has also served as an Adjunct Clinical Assistant Professor of Psychiatry at Pacific Northwest University of Health Sciences. His undergraduate study focused on Medical Anthropology at the University of Michigan. This helped him develop an awareness of the deep impact of psychosomatic phenomena in healing and recovery in all areas of medicine. As a result he developed a clinical practice model that aligned with the Independent Living Model of the Disability Movement: The individual; his perceptions and personal interpretations of his life experiences, takes precedence over their medicalization. He uses this model in both community mental health and private practice settings and has been teaching it to his medical and clinical staff and physician assistant, nurse practioner, and medical students as well.
