UC San Diego Health Psychiatry – Hillcrest

Mental Health

About

The general adult outpatient psychiatry clinic at UC San Diego Health operates from 350 Dickinson Street inside the Hillcrest medical campus and serves as a primary intake point for the broader UCSD psychiatry network. Initial evaluations route directly into specialty services including geriatric psychiatry led by Steve Koh, MD, MPH, MBA for patients over 65 with complex polypharmacy. Treatment-resistant depression cases are escalated to interventional protocols including transcranial magnetic stimulation, IV ketamine, and electroconvulsive therapy through the same hospital. Group programming covers cognitive behavioral therapy for anxiety, dialectical behavior therapy, and mentalization-based therapy delivered by hospital-based clinical teams. DBT skills cohorts and short-term integrated behavioral health overlap with the structured DBT work led by Jessica L. Thackaberry, MD within the same psychiatry faculty. The most complex cases involve inpatient psychiatric admission inside the Hillcrest hospital tower with full medical co-management for patients in acute crisis or aggressive medication titration.
