Narrative-based, trauma-informed, legacy-rooted psychiatric care, for those carrying more than what fits in a chart.

Welcome to DepthWorks.

At DepthWorks Psychiatry™, we don’t just treat symptoms. We listen to the stories underneath them.
Whether you’ve crossed oceans, generations, or personal thresholds, your mental health deserves care that honors the
fullness of who you are.
Rooted in culturally attuned, trauma-informed, and narrative-based psychiatry, DepthWorks offers psychiatric care that is personal, poetic, and precise.

What Makes DepthWorks Different

Three Pillars

“There are stories we carry in our bones before we ever learn the words to tell them.”

  • Integrative Psychiatry
    → Medication plans informed by epigenetics, narrative, and inherited resilience.
    → Built on collaboration, consent, and cultural attunement.

  • Narrative & Trauma-Informed Therapy
    We honor your lived experience and untangle the meaning beneath the symptoms.

  • The Depth Intake™
    → A revolutionary psychiatric interview process that explores your story, ancestry, and healing blueprint.
    → We ask different questions—because your life didn’t start with symptoms.

What We Treat

  • Intergenerational trauma & complex PTSD

  • Anxiety, depression, and emotional burnout

  • Identity fracture and migration grief

  • ADHD and sensory sensitivity

  • Resistance to traditional psychiatric care

  • Creative and spiritual disconnection

The Stories We Carry Across Oceans: Psychiatry, Migration, and the Invisible Psyche

Led by a PMHNP-S, Founder of DepthWorks, who believes psychiatry can be both scientific and soulful—a sacred space where your whole self is seen, heard, and held.
