My goal is simple, and perhaps uncommon: to help you reach a point where you no longer need me. Rather than managing symptoms indefinitely, I work toward genuine recovery; helping you build the resilience and psychological flexibility to handle life's challenges on your own terms. I'm a psychiatrist in San Francisco offering integrated medication management and psychotherapy through a concierge model. I trained at the University of Washington, where I was prepared to treat the full spectrum of psychiatric presentations, meaning you'll get a precise diagnosis, a clear treatment plan, and the majority of your care under one roof.

Mimi Winsberg
Psychiatrist, MD
San Francisco, CA 94104
As a Stanford trained psychiatrist with 25 years of clinical experience, I tailor my therapeutic approach to the individual's particular needs and goals. Psychodynamic, cognitive-behavioral, and mindfulness based approaches are used, along with medication. I treat mood disorders, anxiety, relationship problems, women's issues, disordered eating, and adjustments such as divorce, loss, medical problems, career changes. Medication is best managed in the context of a therapeutic relationship. I believe in the role lifestyle and physical health can play on emotional health, and I incorporate these principles into my therapy practice.
