Compassionate, Personalized Mental Health Care
Kristen Lee MD, UCLA Trained Psychiatrist
Welcome
I’m Dr. Kristen Lee, a UCLA-trained psychiatrist based in Santa Monica. I provide evidence-based, personalized mental health care that integrates therapy, medication management, and holistic support. My goal is to help you move toward stability, resilience, and a renewed sense of balance.
My Experience
Alongside private practice, I have worked in Partial Hospitalization Programs/Intensive Outpatient Programs (PHP/IOP), and street psychiatry, caring for individuals across different levels of severity. These experiences allow me to provide nuanced, flexible treatment that meets you where you are—whether you’re seeking ongoing support or navigating an acute crisis.

I work with individuals navigating a wide range of concerns, including but not limited to:
Anxiety and panic disorders
Depression and mood disorders
Bipolar disorder
Schizophrenia and psychosis
OCD and ADHD
Trauma, grief, and loss
Reproductive psychiatry and perinatal mental health
Care Options
