Pacific Neuropsychiatric Specialists specializes in high quality mental health care for patients of all ages, offering advanced diagnosis and treatment for a wide range of psychiatric conditions, including anxiety, depression, ADHD, trauma, and other complex mental health conditions.

PNS was founded on a simple conviction: every person deserves access to compassionate, expert psychiatric care. Our roots trace back over 30 years to groundbreaking psychiatric research, and since 2006, that same commitment has grown PNS into one of Southern California's largest outpatient psychiatric groups.

In 2024, ATP Clinical Research became part of PNS, and Dr. Gustavo Alva joined as Medical Director, Clinical Research, making PNS one of the largest community based psychiatric research programs in the country.

Today, we're Southern California's trusted name in high quality mental health care, and we're growing: 60+ full-time providers, 200+ clinical trials, and 8 locations across the region.

Whether you're providing direct patient care, supporting groundbreaking research, or helping run one of our clinics, you'll be part of a team that treats children, teenagers, and adults facing anxiety, depression, PTSD, bipolar disorder, schizophrenia, postpartum depression, dementia, and more.

Come grow with us. We're looking for people who want their work to matter.
