Listen - are you breathing just a little and calling it a life?
-Mary Oliver
Welcome
I'm glad you found your way here. My name is Dr. Inez Garzaniti (She/Her). I’m a psychiatrist who practices from a psychodynamic perspective, with attention to emotional depth, meaning, and the ways our histories shape how we experience ourselves and others. My work focuses on understanding symptoms in context — as expressions of what is happening within your mind, your relationships, and our society.
I work with people navigating periods of change, loss, and transition, when familiar ways of coping no longer feel sufficient. Treatment offers space to slow down, reflect, and make sense of what has been carried — often outside of awareness — so that new ways of relating to oneself and others can emerge.
I believe lasting change comes from engaging the deeper roots of emotional life, allowing insight and relationship to support growth that extends beyond symptom relief and into how one lives, loves, and connects.
My practice philosophy
Personalized, Holistic, Compassionate Care
I believe true healing considers the whole person—mind, body, and environment—not just symptoms. My approach combines therapy, medication when needed, and lifestyle strategies to support lasting emotional health.
Therapy is at the heart of my work. Together, we explore the deeper patterns beneath anxiety, depression, and life transitions, turning struggles into insight and growth.

What I offer:
Modern care, grounded in compassion.
Therapy-Centered Psychiatry
Your care stays connected here — I offer therapy within our work together and coordinate with other therapists when that best supports your growth.
Child and Adolescent Care
I offer thoughtful, developmentally informed care for children and adolescents, grounded in attention to emotional life, relationships, and growth over time. The goal is to help young people feel better understood — and better able to understand themselves.
Fully Virtual Care
My practice is fully virtual, making it easier to receive thoughtful, consistent care no matter where you are in California.
Evidence-Based Treatments
I integrate evidence-based treatments with a whole-person perspective, combining proven methods with care that honors your individual story.
Perinatal & Postpartum Care
I offer specialized support for individuals planning pregnancy, navigating fertility, or experiencing pregnancy and postpartum mental health challenges, while also welcoming clients across the lifespan.
Holistic Approach
I take a whole-person approach that integrates mind, body, and lifestyle — using medication thoughtfully, supporting tapering when appropriate, and incorporating nutraceuticals and healthy habits as part of personalized care.
