Contact Dr. Todd Young
I founded my practice on a core philosophy: Mental health care should be thorough, collaborative, and personal. Whether you need a second opinion, wish to explore holistic healing, or are looking for an alternative to conventional psychiatric service in San Diego, I offer care that is as nuanced and layered as you are.
You can’t find lasting relief until you understand what’s really behind your symptoms. My psychiatric assessments provide clear diagnostic profiles that lay the foundation for effective recovery.
Whether you need a first-time evaluation, diagnostic clarification, or a second opinion, these in-depth assessments are designed to give you clarity and direction.
Once we’ve identified the root causes of your symptoms, we’ll work together to build a psychiatric treatment plan tailored to your needs. This may include medication, talk therapy, holistic strategies, interventional treatment like Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation, or a combined approach.
Medication can be a powerful tool, but it’s certainly not the only one. I take a thoughtful approach to prescribing. From the start, we’ll discuss if and when you should taper or stop taking medication, so you’re never left on autopilot.
Understanding what you feel is certainly important. But understanding why you feel it is transformative. My approach to talk therapy is an effective way to uncover unconscious behaviors that negatively impact how you think, act, relate to others, and engage with the world.
I often encourage patients to explore the bigger picture—nutrition, movement, sleep, relationships, stressors, and other often-overlooked factors that affect mental health. When appropriate, we can integrate supportive strategies that enhance your primary treatment plan.
