About

Stephen Poulos, MD is a psychiatrist practicing in Southwest Florida and specializes in the care of patients with mental health conditions. Dr. Poulos may treat patients through a variety of methods including medications, psychotherapy or talk therapy, psychosocial interventions and more, depending on each individual case. Mental health is a highly personal, crucial aspect of life that affects every person on the planet. Our thinking, behavior, and emotions are all influenced by it. Mental health also affects our relationships with others, our ability to handle stress, and our decision-making ability. It also impacts our physical health and productivity. This makes it distinct from other medical disciplines, and at Allpure Behavioral Health, we provide comprehensive care by treating the whole person. We prioritize compassionate care that is tailored to your specific needs, with the aim of improving your overall wellbeing.
