Reach Out
You can book on your own, with no referral needed. If a doctor or therapist suggested psychiatric care, you are welcome to share their notes. They are helpful but never required.

Book Online
Pick a time in our secure IntakeQ portal. Fill out short intake forms from your phone or computer. No referral is needed.
New patients are usually seen within days, not months. Visits run Monday to Sunday, by appointment only.
Book a consultationStep 03
Gather What Helps
Have a list of your current medicines ready, along with your pharmacy name and address. Write down your top questions so nothing is missed.
If a parent, partner or caregiver is joining, decide ahead of time which parts of the visit you want to have alone.
Step 04
Settle Into Your Space
A few minutes of setup makes the visit go smoothly. Charge your device, close other apps and test your camera and microphone.
You control the room you are in. A closed door, a parked car or a white noise machine outside the door can help you speak freely.
What you need for a video visitStep 05
Meet by Video
At your visit time, click the link in your email. You meet by private, encrypted video from any quiet spot in California.
You can talk with Harpal in English, Punjabi, Hindi or Spanish, with no interpreter in the room.
