Patricia Halligan

Patricia Halligan, M.D., is a board-certified addiction psychiatrist with a private practice in Mount Pleasant, South Carolina. She provides personalized care for people seeking help with substance use disorders, process addictions—including eating disorders, sexual addiction, and gambling—and dependence on prescription medications such as benzodiazepines and opioids. Dr. Halligan has experience treating busy professionals, including physicians, nurses, and attorneys, with an approach that aims to support recovery, preserve dignity, and address concerns about anonymity and professional licensure.

Her clinical services also include care for conditions that may occur alongside addiction, such as panic disorder, depression, post-traumatic stress disorder, bipolar disorder, and obsessive-compulsive disorder. She is a licensed buprenorphine (Suboxone) provider. The practice offers individual cognitive behavioral therapy and group therapy, and Dr. Halligan can help patients and families connect with additional treatment and support resources. In addition to her clinical work, she hosts Recovery...The Hero’s Journey, a podcast on VoiceAmerica’s Health and Wellness Channel, and shares educational interviews and information about addiction and recovery.
