Viljar Veede

Psychiatrist

As a psychiatrist I have extensive experience primarily the diagnosis and treatment of mood disorders (depression, bipolar disorder), anxiety disorders, attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), trauma spectrum disorders (PTSD) and addiction disorders. For a long time my special interest has been the possible uses of psychedelics in psychiatric treatment.

Work experience

I finished the psychiatry residency in 2019. 2019-2021 I worked at SA PERH Psychiatry Clinic in the non-psychotic crisis department. Since 2021 I have worked in the SA PERH Psychiatry polyclinic, including regular duty work in the emergency psychiatry department. 2021-2024 I worked as a psychiatrist at Confido Medical Center, where I was a founder of ketamine infusion treatment service, leading the service for three years.

I have made numerous presentations at conferences, seminars and training events in Estonia. I have been a lecturer at Tallinn Health Care College for over five years.

I am a member of the Estonian Society of Psychiatrists and a former member of the board. I am also a founding member of Foundation for Therapeutic Advancement and Innovation with Psychedelics (SA TAIP) and the council chairman.
