Suboxone Clinic
WELCOME TO BRIAN LYNCH M.D.
If we, as humans, have anything in common it is that we want to “feel” good more and “feel” bad less. That is “Affect Psychology.” This is the place to start. This site is comprised of a collection of work by Dr. Brian Lynch, a family doctor whose patients have benefited tremendously from his approach which is based on “Affect Psychology” and the work of Silvan S. Tomkins.
PEOPLE WHO ARE EMOTIONALLY HEALTHY HAVE:
- A sense of contentment.
- A zest for living and the ability to laugh and have fun.
- The ability to deal with stress and bounce back from adversity.
- A sense of meaning and purpose, in both their activities and their relationships.
- The flexibility to learn new things and adapt to change.
- A balance between work and play, rest and activity, etc.
- The ability to build and maintain fulfilling relationships.
- Self-confidence and high self-esteem.
- Ability to abstain from addictive drugs.
Book: Knowing
Your Emotions
Dr. Brian Lynch clarifies and explains how we human beings might better understand ourselves with more patient acceptance of our basic emotions. I have found Dr. Lynch’s approach helpful personally, and have shared his insights with others who also find his ideas helpful.

Is This the Practice for You?
I dedicate my practice almost entirely to substance-abuse and of that mostly to the use of buprenorphine(Suboxone, Zubsolv). I am limited to the number of patients I can see and I limit my patient number, voluntarily, to less than that number in order to give a higher quality of care.*It is if you want maximum privacy.
- It is if you want a nonjudgmental supportive atmosphere. Please watch this TED talk to get an idea of my philosophy: Click Here
- It is if you would like, to the best of our ability to provide such, a secure fixed time for your appointment.
- It is if you feel you need to explore why you got into trouble in the first place.
- This is well-suited for the professional or executive as well as a broad range of other candidates.
- This is for you if you find downtown Chicago convenient.
- We appreciate that there are many who become addicted through being prescribed opiates during MEDICAL TREATMENT and that there can be a lot of confusion and guilt related to this.

Affects & Script Theory - Silvian S. Tomkins, The Basis for our Emotional Life
A resource page for the life and work of Silvan S. Tomkins.
Silvan Tomkins is often said to be the “American Einstein”, yet his work is little known.
His major work is entitled AFFECT IMAGERY CONSCIOUSNESS, a four volume set that was written over nearly forty years, the last volume near his death. Tomkins died in 1991.
Many of us who have come to know and love his work and ideas see in that work organizing principles for what it means to be human and thus what it means to be healthy and clues as to how to get there.
