Dr. Virk has worked in several mental health settings, including hospitals, community mental health center, residential treatment, and group practice. Dr. Virk devoted her early career serving in the National Health Service Corps to provide care to underserved communities. During completion of a Masters of Public Health at UCLA, she traveled to India to complete a project on women’s health and was re-introduced to integrative health methods.
Dr. Virk’s journey and commitment towards practicing integrative psychiatry stems from years of work experience and feeling a deep desire to treat the whole person and to provide comprehensive care. To her, getting to the root cause of symptoms is essential, utilizing tools such as functional lab testing, nutritional guidance, plant/herbal remedies, psychotherapy, and medication support as needed.

She has specialized training in Integrative Nutritional psychiatry and Ketamine-Assisted psychotherapy.

She focuses on a variety of psychiatric conditions, with a special interest in depression, anxiety, and stress related disorders. With a background in western medicine, but with a unique focus on using eastern healing wisdom, her approach focuses on nourishing a person’s inner healing intelligence. She looks forward to walking this path with you.
