An ESA letter is a prescription, not a business.

Let’s face it…the process of getting an ESA letter can be sketchy, confusing, and impersonal.
Filling out an online form just isn’t enough to get to know you and your pet.
And we know it can take months to see a psychiatric provider for medications or therapy, leaving you stuck.

We thought there had to be a better way.

Golden State Psych was founded by a doctorally-prepared, board-certified psychiatric nurse practitioner—not a businessperson—Dr. Kate Magsino.

We operate as a private practice dedicated to providing personalized care.
We’re local to Southern California so you get the care you need when and where you need it.
You’ll meet with us for a 30-minute telehealth appointment to get to know you and your unique psychiatric needs.
We’ll also help you understand your rights with an ESA at home, work, or school.
We’ll then make recommendations for further psychiatric care in your area based on your preferences.
You’ll follow up in 30 days to receive your official ESA letter.
We’ll follow up annually to renew your ESA letter and make sure your needs are being met.

Simple as that!
