Hi, I'm Dr. Kali!
I'm a psychiatrist who offers therapy, medication management, and VIP/Concierge services. I am also a freelance consultant offering services to individuals, political and advocacy organizations, and more around issues of race, identity, medical practice, public health, and conflict stemming from differences.
I contribute to MSNBC, CNN, NPR, NowThis and more. I am also featured on Showtime's hit show, Couples Therapy, starting in season 3. I live in Washington, D.C. with my partner and pup.
