What Alisha Loves About Telepsychiatry
Alisha appreciates the way telepsychiatry removes barriers and expands access to mental health care. It allows her to connect with patients who might otherwise lack access to treatment—whether due to location, schedule, or comfort preferences. She believes receiving care from the comfort of home helps foster a more relaxed, open experience.
Philosophy & Inspiration
Alisha is guided by the quote: “We’re all just walking each other home.” – Ram Dass. This perspective reinforces her belief that mental health care is about walking alongside others with compassion and mutual support.
Her desire to become a psychiatric provider was driven by a commitment to changing the stigma surrounding mental health. She sought a career where she could connect deeply with others, foster personal growth, and create a meaningful impact. For Alisha, psychiatry is not just a profession—it’s a calling to help people heal, thrive, and feel truly understood.
Personal Interests
When she’s not seeing patients, Alisha enjoys traveling, spending time with her children and dogs, relaxing on the porch, and attending live music events. She’s a devoted fan of psychological thrillers, true crime podcasts, and proudly keeps over 20 houseplants thriving at home.
