Whittney Wiley

Hi, I’m Dr. Whittney Wiley! I’m a board-certified psychiatrist offering psychotherapy, medication management, and combined treatment for adults in Cambridge and throughout Massachusetts via telehealth. I completed my medical training at Vanderbilt University and my psychiatry training at Cambridge Health Alliance/Harvard Medical School. I have experience treating a wide range of mental health concerns, including depression, anxiety, ADHD, bipolar disorder, and psychosis. I also enjoy working with people navigating relationship difficulties, trauma, burnout, life transitions, and questions around identity and belonging.

I believe that good mental health care starts with getting to know you as a whole person, rather than focusing only on symptoms or diagnoses. My approach is primarily psychodynamic and relational, meaning that I’m interested in exploring how your experiences, relationships, and patterns of thinking and feeling shape your life today. I also incorporate practical tools from other types of therapy when helpful. I view medication as one of many tools that can support mental health, and we’ll work together to find an approach that fits your needs and goals.

Our first appointment is a chance for us to get to know each other and begin exploring what brings you to treatment. I’ll ask questions about your current concerns, personal history, relationships, and other parts of your life that may be relevant to your care. There will also be space for you to ask questions and share what you’re hoping to get out of treatment. Sometimes it takes more than one appointment to develop an initial plan, and we’ll work together to decide what makes sense for you.
