DON'T MISS work to see your psychiatrist! I work outside of regular business hours (esp. early mornings and late evenings) which works extremely well for the busy professionals I take care of... I am a Yale and Washington University-trained double-board certified psychiatrist accepting new patients as I just launched my online practice and work exclusively online. I am happy to treat any mental health problem. I do not provide prescriptions for controlled substances due to restrictions related to practicing over telemedicine but if needed I can make recommendations to your Primary Care Physician...

If your child is anxious, struggling in school, or not acting like themselves, I can help. I work with children and teens facing anxiety, ADHD, mood changes, and behavioral challenges that affect home, school, or relationships. My approach combines evidence-based psychiatry with thoughtful psychotherapy. I don’t aim to change your child, but to help them understand themselves and build healthier patterns. I offer therapy and medication management when appropriate, with a careful, individualized approach.

Hello, my name is David Taylor MD, and I am a board certified psychiatrist and assistant clinical professor at UCLA. As a physician, I am able to offer both therapy and medications to my patients. Although some people choose to have a separate therapist and psychiatrist, I believe that symptom improvement is enhanced when both treatments are provided by one professional.

My ideal client is someone who’s carried a lot on their own, possibly, the “strong one” in their relationships, but underneath is exhaustion, anxiety, or emotional overwhelm. They may struggle with attention, burnout, or self-doubt, and feel like they’re barely holding it together. What they want most is to feel understood, to have a space where they don’t have to perform or apologize, where their inner world makes sense. They’re seeking clarity, relief, and a path back to themselves.

It’s hard finding access to good mental health care. Whether it's due to long wait times to see someone, or feeling like you're not being heard, it seems that the mental health care system just isn't optimized to deliver effective treatment. With that in mind, I have developed a practice designed to deliver treatment that, at its core, is convenient, comprehensive, and compassionate.

FAQ - Psychiatrist Gender
Does it matter what gender a psychiatrist is?
Psychiatrists are trained to diagnose and treat a wide range of mental health conditions, often using a combination of psychotherapy and medication management. While psychiatrists of all genders are equally qualified, the therapeutic relationship is central to effective care, and finding a provider with whom you feel comfortable is an essential part of the process.

What are the advantages of seeing a male psychiatrist?
For some individuals, working with a male psychiatrist may play an important role in building trust and ease within that relationship. Personal, cultural, or past experiences may shape this preference. Some people feel more comfortable discussing certain topics with a male provider, particularly if they’ve had positive experiences confiding in men in other areas of their lives. Others may seek out a male psychiatrist for support with issues that relate specifically to male identity—such as navigating societal expectations around masculinity, fatherhood, or addressing emotional expression in environments where vulnerability may be discouraged.

How to find a male psychiatrist
Psychology Today’s online directory allows users to search for psychiatrists by gender, making it easy to find male psychiatrists (MDs) and psychiatric nurse practitioners (PMHNPs). Each provider profile includes key information such as clinical specialties, therapeutic approach, licensure, accepted insurance plans, languages spoken, and session fees. These details can help you evaluate whether a provider is a good fit for your needs.
