About
Dr. Jaye Estrada believes in building a strong therapeutic alliance rooted in trust, empathy, and respect.

Dr. Estrada incorporates medication into a comprehensive care plan when appropriate, engaging patients in shared decision-making to support their well-being. Dr. Estrada’s interest in psychiatry was sparked by early volunteer work in an emergency department, where he saw firsthand how mental health challenges affect every aspect of a person’s life. These experiences enhanced his commitment to providing accessible, whole-person care. Dr. Estrada is especially drawn to the intricate connection between thoughts, emotions, and behavior and works to help patients navigate these layers with curiosity and care. Outside work, he enjoys listening to classical music and cheering for the Dodgers and the Lakers.
