PRUNELLA PSYCHIATRY | LOS ANGELES
Blossom Into Your Best Self
Hello, I’m Dr. Alice Wong!
Driven by a profound passion for understanding human behavior and a commitment to fostering growth, I've dedicated myself to a specialty aligned with my core values.
I believe in the innate capacity for healing and empowerment within each individual. Through a blend of medications, nutraceuticals, and psychotherapy, I strive to create an optimal environment for your self-healing journey.
As a Chinese-American who has moved between cultures, I understand the complexities of multicultural identity firsthand.
My journey is shaped by a blend of experiences, including a childhood spent in Hong Kong, where I was exposed to both Western and Traditional Chinese Medicine. These teachings, emphasizing balance and wellness, deeply influenced my family's approach to health and influenced how I practice medicine today.
This informs my focus on supporting individuals, particularly Asian-Americans, through challenges like depression, anxiety, and trauma.
