About Us

Because Every Story – Including Ours – is About Healing and Becoming

Our Story

I’m so glad you’re here. I’m Dina BenDavid, a double board-certified nurse practitioner and doctor of nursing with a specialized focus in integrative and functional psychiatry. I believe that true mental wellness is about so much more than managing symptoms; it’s about understanding what’s really driving those struggles and creating a plan that helps you feel like yourself again. In my practice, I blend modern psychiatric care with functional medicine principles and holistic strategies to get to the root of what’s affecting your mental and emotional health. Medications have their place when needed, but my goal is to help you restore balance, build resilience, and find lasting clarity in ways that feel aligned and personal to you, while working with the body and mind’s innate capacity to heal.

Earlier in my career, I worked extensively in aesthetic and regenerative medicine — a field that taught me a lot about confidence and vitality on the outside, but also made me realize how much deeper true wellness goes. That insight led me to shift my focus, pursue advanced psychiatric training, and create a more comprehensive, integrative approach to mental health care— one that’s deeply personal, collaborative, and tailored to your unique needs.

I envisioned a place where every patient is met where they are at in their journey… where they feel heard, cared for, and loved. Where insurance does not dictate what we can do, and for how long or how often we see our patients. Where patients are treated by a team that cares deeply and is committed to helping them find the light within themselves. I created this with STILL. And I am deeply grateful to stand alongside such extraordinary colleagues, united in a collective mission to bring about true healing.

If you’ve been searching for a different kind of mental health care — one that looks deeper, listens differently, and helps you reconnect with your own clarity and strength — you’re in the right place. I look forward to walking this path with you
