Ryan Flanagan, MD

Director of Resilience Program

Dr. Ryan Flanagan was drawn to Silver Hill Hospital for the opportunity to treat people from all walks of life and with a range of clinical needs. An Attending Psychiatrist in the Resilience Program at River House, Dr. Flanagan is trained in several treatments to help better patients’ mental health including CBT, DBT, and psychodynamic psychotherapy.
