Getting to know Dr. Tamara Bendahan

I am a Columbia and UCSF trained, board-certified adult psychiatrist treating a range of mental health conditions including anxiety, depression, OCD, bipolar disorder, panic disorder and women’s health issues.

What should a new client know about working with you?

I care for patients using a holistic approach with a focus on the brain, mind and body. I provide individualized treatment plans that include medication, brief psychotherapy, evidence based complementary treatments and referrals for interventional treatment when needed. I completed my General Psychiatry Residency training at Columbia/New York State Psychiatric Institute followed by the Public Psychiatry Fellowship at UCSF. I have worked as a Clinical Instructor of Psychiatry at the UCSF San Francisco General Hospital, served as an Expert Clinician for Galileo Inc, and Medical Director for Options MD. My specialty includes difficult to treat depression, anxiety disorders and women's health issues including PMDD, post-partum depression and post-partum anxiety.

What is your typical process for working with clients?

My initial appointment is generally 1 hour and will include an thorough evaluation that may include referral for bloodwork and other types of testing. Follow up appointments are generally 30 minutes.
