Cheryl L Green, MD

Born and raised in Northern California, I attended Harvard and Princeton Universities before beginning medical training at Stanford University School of Medicine. I graduated from Stanford with an M.D. in 2011, then completed three years of residency in adult psychiatry at Georgetown University and two years of fellowship in child and adolescent psychiatry at Wright State University.

I am currently an assistant professor of psychiatry at Loma Linda University School of Medicine in Southern California, where I work in a variety of settings: inpatient, outpatient, and intensive outpatient. I educate medical students, residents, and fellows, and I participate actively in the American Psychiatric Association (APA) and in the American Association of Child and Adolescent Psychiatry (AACAP).

I use a lifestyle-based approach that combines biological modalities (blood tests, micronutrients, macronutrients, and medications) with psychological supports (lifestyle coaching and supportive, cognitive, and behavioral therapies). I specialize in promoting vibrant physical health and optimal weight. I also specialize in safely streamlining overloaded medication regimens, and in carefully tapering patients off their medications entirely when those medications are no longer necessary or helpful.

Although I see patients of all ages and genders, I have particular expertise in working with women and adolescent girls who suffer from depression, bipolar disorder, grief, anxiety, stress, trauma, self-injury, eating disorders, and/or ADHD.
