A bit about Dr Goldman

Hi, I’m Dr. Lisa Goldman. I’m an Arizona-based board-certified psychiatrist and psychotherapist.

I work with smart, creative people who are dealing with depression, anxiety, bipolar spectrum concerns, insomnia, and ADHD — and who want care that’s collaborative, not rushed.

A bit about my practice

I designed my cash-based tele psychiatry practice to serve people in Arizona (with Colorado licensing coming soon).

I don’t separate “med management” from psychotherapy. We look at the whole picture: what you’re carrying, what’s working, what isn’t, and what needs to change.

My ideal clients are distressed healthcare workers, adults who are wondering if they have ADHD, and LGBTQ+ adults. Although there are other conditions I enjoy treating.

Disenchanted healthcare workers

You went into medicine to help people. Now you’re being asked to do impossible work in impossible time.

If you’re carrying moral injury, burnout, anger, or a quiet sense of “what have I done,” you’re not alone — and you’re not failing.

Neurodivergent adults (ADHD)

If you’ve had to work twice as hard to get average results, you might not be broken — you might be neurodivergent.

I specialize in ADHD care for adults who want real understanding, practical supports, and (when appropriate) careful medication.

LGBTQ+ adults

Your identity isn’t something to “fix.” You deserve psychiatric care where you don’t have to explain yourself.

I work with LGBTQ+ adults seeking support for depression, anxiety, insomnia, ADHD, and stress — in a space that’s steady, respectful, and safe.


What my patients are saying

Dr Goldman has been a critical component of my health care team. In addition to being an excellent provider for her areas of expertise she has provided high quality referrals for issues outside her domain.

Dr Goldman took the time over the course of many months to find an optimal medication regimen, which has kept me stable for years.

I don’t admire many people, as you know, Dr Goldman, and I truly dislike most doctors. You’re the first doctor I have ever admired.

Dr Goldman is an excellent communicator and focused listener. I feel comfortable talking about any personal or medical topic with her, and she is well trained and experienced in her work. She knows my personal history and understands what I have been through. Her approach is respectful and compassionate, and she gives focused attention to my concerns. I feel Dr Goldman gives me the exact amount of time and care that I need. She is truly a wonderful and caring physician.

I’ve been under psychiatric care for 25 years across a range of doctors, Dr Goldman is by far the best psychiatrist I’ve ever had. Her devotion and commitment to my care is beyond what I ever would have expected from a psychiatrist before I started working with her. I’ve always felt that a large part of my mental health is done alone, I’m in charge of where I am and what’s working or what’s not. I was surprised to find with Dr Goldman that’s not true. I learned that a great psychiatrist is a partner, the best and most knowledgeable one could ever have. With Dr Goldman I’m no longer alone in my struggles, I have her with me 24 hours a day. The impact of her support is something I might never really be able to fully measure, because it continues to unfold and shape my future every single day.

Always available when needed and easy to schedule appointments.

I think of you and how grateful I am for all that have done for me.

Dr Lisa, Thank you so much for all the information. I truly love working with you, and I have never met a doctor that goes as far as you do with your patients.
