About Dr. Chandra

I have spent the last fifteen years learning about evidence-based integrative approaches in psychiatry and continually stay up to date with the latest cutting-edge innovations in neuroscience to provide the best possible care. This clinic is the culmination of those efforts, combining treatment modalities that I believe are essential for long-term healing. I invite you to explore the integrative approach and discover the possibilities it offers.

Fortunately, I had the opportunity to learn about integrative and functional medicine, which focus  on uncovering root causes and recognize the deep connection between brain and body health.  Although I was initially skeptical, I saw patients improve in ways I hadn’t seen before—they weren’t just managing symptoms, they were truly healing.

Becoming a doctor felt like a natural choice given my love for science and desire to develop meaningful, long-term relationships with patients. Despite training in the country’s top psychiatric hospitals, however, I didn’t see patients getting well or thriving to the extent I believed they should. Instead, I saw patients being put on more and more medications, often without significant improvement but with increasing side effects.

Prior to starting her own clinic, Dr. Chandra worked at treatment centers in Chicago and the Bay Area that focused on integrative approaches for children with psychological issues and developmental delays. She also spent four years studying and working in a clinic focused on integrative approaches for chronic complex illnesses, including chronic fatigue syndrome, fibromyalgia, and autoimmune illnesses.

Beyond her clinical work, Dr. Chandra lectures and teaches nationally to increase understanding and awareness about integrative psychiatry.
