A physician actually reviews your case
Every clinical decision is made by a licensed physician, not an algorithm and not a form.
Physician-led · Asynchronous-first, not asynchronous-only · No fast access to controlled substances
Psychiatry that takes your whole story seriously.
Mind Align Psychiatry is structured digital psychiatric care for adults, founded and medically directed by David Danish, MD. Care will begin with a thorough online intake you complete at your own pace, reviewed carefully by a licensed physician. Depth over speed, by design.

Three commitments
Careful care, not fast access.
No fast access to controlled substances
No stimulants, benzodiazepines, or controlled sleep agents. Careful care, not fast access.
Secure follow-up that continues
Care is an ongoing relationship with oversight, not a single prescription.
How care will work
Four steps. No rushed appointments.
The intake is the appointment, done on your schedule and reviewed with the time it deserves.
Structured intake
Thorough and private, completed on your own time.
Physician review
A licensed physician reviews your history and any indicated screens or labs, and decides with you whether our care is a fit.
A written plan
Your plan may include non-controlled medication, testing, or a referral. Never a prescription on autopilot.
Secure follow-up
Secure messaging and continuity of oversight, with a live conversation whenever the situation calls for one.
Clearly scoped
What Mind Align Psychiatry is — and what it isn't.
It is
- Structured, physician-led psychiatric careA thorough intake, review by a licensed physician, a written plan, and secure follow-up.
- Asynchronous-first, not asynchronous-onlyWhen a concern needs a live conversation or video visit, we will say so.
- Non-controlled medication options where appropriateAlongside physician-ordered genetic/pharmacogenomic testing and labs, each interpreted by a physician in the context of your history.
- For adults 18 and olderIn states where our physicians are licensed. Dr. Danish is board-certified in child & adolescent psychiatry; select physician-managed pathways may serve younger patients with a guardian involved throughout.
It isn't
- An emergency or crisis serviceThe service is not monitored in real time. In a crisis, call or text 988, text HOME to 741741, or go to your nearest emergency room.
- A fast-refill or medication-access serviceThere is no fast or first-visit access to controlled substances, and the asynchronous new-patient intake is non-controlled.
- A therapy appAnd not a substitute for in-person evaluation or ongoing treatment where those are indicated.
- A promise of a prescriptionCompleting an intake begins a clinical review. It does not by itself create a physician–patient relationship or guarantee acceptance into care.
Where we draw the line
The rules we hold ourselves to.
We do not initiate stimulants, benzodiazepines, or controlled sleep medications through our online intake.
Software organizes information, but a licensed physician makes every clinical decision. No genetic or lab result names a "best" medication on its own.
Psychiatric care and coaching are distinct offerings, governed separately and priced transparently. Coaching and education are not medical care.
