Desanne Gonssalves, PA-C is a nationally trained Psychiatric Physician Assistant with a compassionate, modern approach to mental health care for adults across California via secure virtual visits and in-person care in Beverly Hills and San Diego. At Journey Psyche, Desanne provides evidence-based psychiatric evaluation, medication management, and collaborative treatment planning for individuals seeking clarity, stability, and long-term emotional wellness. Desanne specializes in the treatment of anxiety disorders, depression, ADHD, mood disorders, trauma-related conditions, and stress-related concerns.
At Journey Psyche, I work closely with a multidisciplinary team of psychiatric providers to deliver personalized, results-driven care. Treatment focuses on the lowest effective medication strategies, thoughtful adjustments over time, and continuous monitoring for safety, effectiveness, and quality of life.
I understand that asking for help is difficult. We also understand that it can be challenging to find a mental health care provider you trust. That's why we're here, and we're approaching things differently from other practices. Let's collaborate to help you find the peace of mind and clarity you deserve.
