About Me

Shrina Desai, MD is a psychiatrist in Midlothian, Virginia offering psychiatric care across the full lifespan from young children through older adults.

She addresses a wide range of conditions including anxiety, depression, ADHD, bipolar disorder, PTSD, OCD  and more, using a blend of medication management and therapeutic approaches.

Dr. Desai’s practice provides a broad, integrated toolkit designed to meet clients wherever they are on their mental health journey.

Whole-Lifespan Psychiatric Care

Dr. Desai’s core focus is delivering individualized psychiatric services to clients of all ages, making her a strong option for families seeking consistent, long-term care across developmental stages.

Her specialty includes addressing common presentations like anxiety and ADHD to higher-acuity conditions such as psychosis, bipolar disorder and trauma-related disorders.

Treatment draws on both medication management and structured psychotherapeutic modalities, including CBT, DBT, ACT and EMDR.

For younger clients, Parent-Child Interaction Therapy (PCIT) is also as part of her approach, supporting early intervention and family-centered care.

Specialized Support for Complex Conditions

Dr. Desai also addresses more specialized concerns including OCD using Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP), perinatal and postpartum mental health and substance use.

This range positions her well for clients managing layered or complex presentations alongside more common mental health needs.

Dr. Desai sees clients in person and via telehealth at her Midlothian, Virginia location through LifeStance Health.
