Dr. Gabriel Heiber M.D.

I am a board-certified psychiatrist who completed medical school, residency and fellowship at Northwestern University, where I also worked for a number of years as full-time faculty and continue as Clinical Assistant Professor. I provide treatment for a variety of general mental health conditions, such as depression and anxiety, while also having expertise in the care of mental health symptoms that interplay with medical problems. I combine strategies including lifestyle changes, supplements, medications, psychotherapy, and TMS.  

My approach is centered on meeting patients where they are, valuing collaboration that fosters an alliance grounded in trust and empathy. I take pride in seeing the person in the patient, and taking the time to do so. Together, we can explore and pursue treatment options to find your Vital Balance: emotional and physical wellness.

My focus is on adults 18 and older. For those who may need it, I am glad to provide care in Spanish, as I am a native speaker.

I am a Certified Physician Assistant with a strong foundation in psychological and medical sciences, dedicated to providing compassionate, attentive care to individuals facing mental health challenges.

I earned a Bachelor of Science in Psychology from the University of Illinois and completed a Master of Physician Assistant Studies at Sullivan University, where I graduate with Summa Cum Laude Honors. During my training, I gained clinical experience in psychiatry, behavioral health, and crisis intervention.

I believe in treating the whole person—not just symptoms—by creating a safe, supportive environment where patients feel heard, respected, and empowered to participate in their care. I value collaboration and strive to understand each individual’s unique experiences, goals, and challenges.

My interests include mood and anxiety disorders and integrative approaches to mental health. My goal is to help patients find balance and improve their quality of life with personalized care.
