“Cyrus Ma was very thorough about how our sessions would go and how the flow of things would be for future sessions. The intake was fast and professional which is much better than the place I was just being prescribed medicine for on a very inconsistent basis. I appreciated the help and was able to reschedule prescriptions and get actual answers to my questions about the underlying conditions that have been triggers for a lifetime for me. I look forward to the future working with Clarity CHI in the future.
Great people for sure
Highly recommend them”

Getting to know Cyrus Ma
I am a big believer in holistic care and the well-being of the entire individual. I love psychiatry for its ability to take care of a person as a whole and to improve his quality of life. I believe that the mind is someone’s most valuable asset and that it’s important to feel that, even when you are alone, you are in good company.
I like to develop partnerships with my clients and work with them to develop treatment plans that align with their lifestyles and goals. This translates to taking care of the individual from all aspects of life and collaborating with my clients to see whether medication or therapy would be a good fit. Whatever the case, I am interested in getting to know the person first and to help be a partner in their journey towards mental and emotional well-being.
I was born and raised in Honolulu, HI where I completed my undergraduate education at the University of Hawai’i at Manoa. After leaving the rock, I completed my PA training at Northwestern University’s Physician Assistant program in Chicago, where I provided psychiatric care for patients in outpatient pediatric and adult clinics as well as the Cook County Jail. I am especially interested in depression, anxiety, addiction/substance abuse, bipolar disorder and schizophrenia. I look forward to partnering with you!

Welcoming, understanding and kind

Did not have my intake forms.
Front desk person said have a seat so I assumed they received everything. Cyrus Ma PA introduced himself and was pleasant. Then he proceeded to ask me basic questions which I had already answered on the intake forms. These questions could have been asked by a medical assistant. Since the practice doesn’t take my insurance, which I was aware of before hand, I basically wasted money on this visit.
I was willing to give them another chance as Ma, PA was pleasant, I went through all of the ten or so forms again and resent them last evening. I called the office today. The front desk person checked for me and said that there was no forms received from me. I then asked her to have Cyrus Ma PA call me when he can.
I want to talk to him about the poor system the Clarity Clinic has.

So compassionate. Made me feel heard, care about, and was very trauma informed. Asked me about all aspects of my life and listened to my concerns. One of the best experiences with a psychiatrist I’ve had yet. Would highly recommend
