Online Psychiatry for California Patients

If you're living with ADHD, anxiety, or depression and need access to a telehealth psychiatrist in California, Psych Wellness Spa is here to help — with same-week appointments available and all care is delivered via secure telehealth. Founded by Kimberly Kaestner (PMHNP-BC, FNP-C), our practice makes it easier than ever to connect with a board-certified psychiatric provider from the comfort of your own home, wherever you are in the state.

California is one of the most populous states in the country, yet access to quality psychiatric care remains a significant challenge for millions of residents. Long wait times, provider shortages, and the sheer geographic size of the state mean many Californians go months without seeing a qualified prescriber. As an online psychiatrist California patients can actually access, Psych Wellness Spa was built to close that gap. When geography is no longer a barrier, the focus can go where it belongs — on getting you well.
