Catalina Ridge Mental Health Expands Access to Women's Psychiatric Care in Tucson

Catalina Ridge Mental Health in Tucson has expanded its services to address women's mental health needs across life transitions, including adolescence, pregnancy, postpartum, and perimenopause. The clinic offers psychiatric evaluations, medication management, and pharmacogenetic testing, with both in-person and telepsychiatry options available. New patients can typically be seen within one to two weeks.
Catalina Ridge Mental Health, an outpatient psychiatric clinic based in downtown Tucson, has expanded its services to better support the complex mental health needs women face throughout their lives. The new program provides specialized care for patients navigating challenges related to adolescence, pregnancy, postpartum recovery, perimenopause, and other life transitions that can significantly affect mental well-being.

The expansion reflects a growing recognition that women's mental health often requires a more tailored approach-one that accounts for both hormonal influences and the broader social, emotional, and physical contexts in which symptoms arise.

"Women's psychiatric needs are often minimized or misunderstood, especially during transitions like pregnancy or menopause," said Dr. Daniel Tan, Medical Director at Catalina Ridge Mental Health. "Our goal is to offer care that's clinically sound, trauma-informed, and responsive to each patient's unique experience."

Catalina Ridge provides comprehensive psychiatric evaluations, medication management, and ongoing treatment in a setting designed to be both supportive and accessible. The clinic works with women experiencing mood and anxiety disorders, trauma-related symptoms, and hormone-related mental health conditions.

This includes care for postpartum depression and anxiety, premenstrual dysphoric disorder (PMDD), perinatal and perimenopausal mood changes, PTSD, and mental health concerns related to caregiving, chronic pain, or work-life stress. Each treatment plan is developed in collaboration with the patient, with an emphasis on clarity, flexibility, and continuity.

In cases where previous medications have been ineffective or difficult to tolerate, Catalina Ridge offers pharmacogenetic testing, such as GeneSight Registered , to help guide prescribing decisions. This testing can support more precise medication selection and reduce the need for multiple trials.

Care is available both in person and through secure telepsychiatry for patients in Tucson and surrounding areas, including Oro Valley, Marana, and Sahuarita. By offering virtual appointments, the clinic helps reduce access barriers that many patients face-including transportation challenges, scheduling constraints, and stigma.

"Timely access is another part of delivering effective care," Dr. Tan added. "We've structured our clinic to ensure that new patients can typically be seen within one to two weeks."

Catalina Ridge accepts most major insurance plans, including Medicaid and Medicare. The clinic serves adolescents and adult women and works closely with primary care providers, OB-GYNs, and other community clinicians to ensure coordinated support when needed.

As awareness of women's mental health needs continues to grow, Catalina Ridge is working to meet that need with care that is not only faster to access-but more attuned to the full context of each patient's life.
