Science + Compassion for Your Mental Health
Are you looking for a psychiatrist in San Diego? Our psychiatric practice focuses on people 18-64 who suffer from anxiety, depression, and other mood disorders, as well as PTSD, ADHD and insomnia. To address these often interrelated conditions, we combine cutting-edge science and technology with thoughtful, individualized approaches to your care. Treatment options include both intravenous (IV) and intramuscular ketamine therapy, Spravato™ (esketamine, a rapid-acting antidepressant nasal spray), Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (TMS), Theta Burst Stimulation (TBS), and Injectable Nutrient Therapies (INT).
For patients already prescribed psychoactive medications, which are often used in combination with one of the interventions above, we offer medication management with a focus on benefit vs. risk, and specialize in detoxification and de-prescribing, if/as appropriate.
From the Founders
You have many choices in seeking psychiatric care to improve your mental health. With the full range of treatments we offer, from IV ketamine and TMS to conservative medication management and counseling, we hope that Pacific Psych earns the privilege of providing your care. If you are still considering options, please let us know if there are any questions we can answer. If at any time you have issues with our practice, please contact us, so we can help resolve your concern.

What Makes Us Different?
Until recently, ketamine was only available as an option for treatment-resistant depression as an intravenous infusion. Since 2019, when it received FDA approval, Spravato™, a nasal spray, has been available at our San Diego, CA clinic. As a certified Spravato treatment center, we are pleased to offer both options to our patients.
