Gabor Maté

Maté in 2013 Gabor Maté (born January 6, 1944) is a Canadian physician. He has a background in family practice and a special interest in childhood development, trauma and potential lifelong impacts on physical and mental health, including autoimmune disease, cancer, attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), and addictions.

Maté's approach to addiction focuses on the trauma his patients have suffered and looks to address this in their recovery. In his book ''In the Realm of Hungry Ghosts: Close Encounters with Addiction'', Maté discusses the types of trauma suffered by persons with substance use disorders and how these disorders affect their decision making in later life.

He has written five books exploring topics including ADHD, stress, developmental psychology, and addiction. He is a regular columnist for the ''Vancouver Sun'' and ''The Globe and Mail''. Provided by Wikipedia
