Patient Testimonials

Dr Mindy I have known for over a decade and her continuous care and professionalism is outstanding. Many times I came to see her feeling like I am at the end of my rope and she ALWAYS has an answer of how we can make things work with a different medication, a different solution and never gives up. I owe her so much for without these medications and her confidence and care I wouldn't be able to function and I am functioning very well now. Even though she moved out of town I still see her through Telehealth as she truly is the BEST!

JZ

Dr Mindy was a life saver for my son and our family. She was so attentive and compaSsionate. I felt like she put her heart and sole into treating my son. She is so up to date on the newest medications and techniques in psychiatry. She carefully listens and gained my sons trust and ours. I have sent several other friends and family members to her and they all had the same experience. A++++

SF

Dr. Mindy Werner-Crohn was a lifesaver. Not only is she most knowledgeable about the latest advances in psychopharmaceuticals and medical advances in psychiatry and psychology, she is also up to date on other treatments to help in a variety of situations. I found her honest, straightforward, and accessible as well as very friendly and helpful. She even went to bat for me when I had an issue with my insurance company. Her staff is professional and goes above and beyond what would be required to make any patient feel welcomed and well taken care of. I cannot recommend Dr. Werner-Crohn highly enough!

LR

Dr. Mindy has been tremendously helpful to our son first, and then to me, as I became a patient as well. Yes, she is expensive, but there are few things that are worth more than getting the best advice you can from an expert in the mental health field who is truly brilliant in so many ways. After seeing other psychiatrists, and getting a variety of diagnoses and mediocre advice, Dr. Mindy was able to very quickly help our son by seeing what his issues were and getting him on the proper medication which has actually helped him to feel better and function better in school and in general. She cares about her patients, listens to them, and advises them not only on mental health but also has given us advice about other areas such as when and where to get tutoring help and deciding when he is ready for independence like staying home alone and going to summer camp. She has even given us referrals regarding concerns about his nutrition and growth. If you are trying to navigate any mental health issues and getting overwhelmed by a lot of questionable advice, I highly recommend you go to see Dr. Mindy!

BR

Dr Mindy Warner Crohn is the most magnificent, spectacular, caring psychiatrist I have ever had the pleasure to work with. 10 years ago I was diagnosed bipolar. I will now be 63 this Saturday. It's been a 10 years of up-and-down of different medications and therapy. She never gave up. She was always my cheerleader. She is brilliant. She now practices up in Oakland, but I have worked with her for the last 7 years or so,since Covid via Zoom. I could have my dates askew; but the important thing is I am doing well and I owe it all to her. In addition, she set me up with a wonderful therapist Dr. Tracy Rosberg. Together they have really helped turn my life around. God bless them both.

LL

Shira is excellent. Knowledgeable, thoughtful, professional. Highly recommend!

MC

I am a client of Shira Crohn's and l can't recommend her enough! She is a thoughtful, compassionate and highly skilled practitioner. I have benefitted enormously from her guidance and care. If you want someone who will engage you and guide you in your journey, then Shira will partner with you to do just that.

SC

Shira is the best psychiatrist I've ever worked with. She is empathetic and kind, but not a dunce or a pushover either. We've talked about various aspects of my treatment, and she has worked with me to find the right combination that works (which we did!) She's just good people, not there to cram as many appointments in as possible, just to run off to golf or something. I couldn't recommend her more highly.

FAQs About Psychiatric Care In Los Angeles, California

Patients often have questions when seeking psychiatric care. Here are the most common inquiries we receive at Blue Sky Psychiatry, with detailed answers to help you make informed decisions:

adult psychiatry Blue Sky Psychiatry Los Angeles & Berkeley, California
Blue Sky Psychiatry Los Angeles & Berkeley, California

Your first appointment is a comfortable, private conversation focused on understanding your needs. Your psychiatrist will ask about your current symptoms, medical history, and emotional well-being. Together, you’ll outline personal goals and discuss treatment options—whether that includes therapy, medication, or both. This visit sets the foundation for a care plan that fits your lifestyle and long-term mental health goals.

Yes. Our specialists are trained in child and adolescent psychiatry and understand how emotional challenges affect young people differently. Parents or guardians are included in the process when appropriate to ensure that treatment supports the whole family. We provide compassionate, developmentally sensitive care designed to help young patients thrive at school, at home, and in social settings.

Absolutely. In fact, many patients experience the best outcomes with a blend of both approaches. Medication can help regulate mood and relieve distressing symptoms, while therapy builds insight, coping skills, and emotional resilience. Your psychiatrist will work closely with you—and, if applicable, your therapist—to coordinate treatment and monitor progress.

Yes. We offer secure, HIPAA-compliant video appointments for patients across California. Virtual visits provide the same quality of care as in-person sessions and are ideal for those with busy schedules or limited access to transportation. All you need is a private space, a stable internet connection, and a device with a camera and microphone.

Frequency depends on your individual needs and how you respond to treatment. New patients typically meet monthly or biweekly as medication and therapy plans are adjusted. As symptoms stabilize, sessions may become less frequent, transitioning into maintenance visits to ensure continued balance and support.

We provide care for a wide range of mental health conditions, including depression, anxiety disorders, ADHD, OCD, PTSD, and sleep issues. Our psychiatrists also help patients navigate mood fluctuations, stress, and life transitions that impact mental health. Each treatment plan is evidence-based and tailored to the individual, not just the diagnosis.

No, medication is designed to restore balance—not change who you are. The goal is to reduce symptoms that interfere with your daily life so you can feel more like yourself again. Your psychiatrist will start with the lowest effective dose and carefully monitor your response to ensure you feel natural, present, and in control.

Many patients begin to notice improvement within a few weeks, though timelines vary depending on the condition, treatment plan, and medication response. Therapy progress can also depend on your level of participation and comfort in sessions. Your psychiatrist will check in regularly to track changes and make adjustments as needed.

Yes. Every session is completely confidential and protected under HIPAA privacy regulations. Your personal information, treatment notes, and medical details are kept secure. We value your trust and are committed to maintaining a safe, judgment-free environment where you can speak openly.

That’s perfectly okay—and actually a great time to reach out. You don’t need to have everything figured out before asking for support. Our team will listen to your concerns, help identify what’s going on, and recommend next steps. Whether you’re managing stress, persistent sadness, or uncertainty about your emotions, early intervention can make a real difference.
