Sayeh Beheshti, M.D.

Dr. Sayeh Beheshti is a graduate of University of California, Irvine (UCI) Department of Psychiatry Residency Program, where she was trained in the latest treatments for a large variety of mental health symptoms and disorders. She has experience in working with a wide range of issues from the most severe disorders requiring complex management and hospitalization, to those struggling with relationships, substance abuse, or weight problems, to very highly functioning individuals seeking a further understanding of their inner psyche or spirituality. Dr. Beheshti is fully competent in both psychotherapeutic techniques and medication management, and has a strong interest in incorporating guided imagery and meditation for those patients interested in this modality of treatment. Dr. Beheshti has a philosophy of treating each patient as an individual with unique needs and circumstances. She firmly believes the best way to formulate an ideal treatment modality for clients is through establishing a strong therapeutic relationship with them and understanding their needs within the context of their biological, psychological, and spiritual makeup as well as the environmental and social context in which they live in.
