She also completed her residency in general psychiatry and her fellowship in child and adolescent psychiatry at the same educational venue.

“I understand how difficult it is to seek help for depression. I treat all of my patients with respect and provide care in a way that makes all of my patients and their families comfortable. My mission is to save one million lives and allow patients to experience the pleasure in their lives again” as stated by the doctor. 

For the purpose of advancing her efforts, Dr. Israel remains a member of the Clinical TMS Society, the American Psychiatric Association, the Florida Psychiatric Society, and the American Academy of Child and Adolescent Psychiatry. What’s more, she is board-certified in psychiatry by the American Board of Psychiatry and Neurology, a not-for-profit corporation dedicated to promoting high quality patient care for the public through the initial and continuing certification of psychiatrists and neurologists.

Psychiatry is the medical specialty devoted to the diagnosis, prevention, and treatment of mental disorders. These include various maladaptations related to mood, behavior, cognition, and perceptions. Psychiatrists evaluate, diagnose, and treat patients with mental, emotional, and behavioral disorders. They conduct thorough psychiatric evaluations, develop treatment plans, prescribe medication, and evaluate treatment results.

As an expert in her field, Dr. Israel has conducted a publication Feeling Like a Motherless Child in the Psychiatric Times in 2009, as well as has served as a presenter at NAMI of Palm Beach County. Her favorite professional publication is the peer-reviewed journal, Brain Stimulation.
