Responsive, Respectful, Results.

Hi there-I'm Art Yeh (pronounced "yay!"). I've been a behavioral health nurse for over 15 years. I've worked as a prescriber in a wide array of settings (inpatient, outpatient, nursing homes, urgent care) in different states.

I've done psychiatric consulting and specialize in many disorders including depression, anxiety, ADHD, bipolar disorders, and psychosis.

I currently treat adult clients.

I made myself a dynamic behavioral health provider by actively providing virtual behavioral health services to adult clients in 5 different states (Arizona, California, Massachusetts, Nevada, Washington). I currently reside in California.

***Due to tele-health limitations and constraints, if suicidal thoughts are present, please refer to psychiatric urgent care services and/or an in-person provider. In addition, only the client is allowed during all sessions.

***Should you require assistance with all paperwork please note that it requires 3 months of prior consistent treatment. Thank you.

Saby Kirpal

Saby Kirpal

Psychiatric Mental Health NP

Virtual • Westlake Village, CA


I'm Saby Kirpal, a Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner dedicated to providing comprehensive mental health care. I hold Master's degrees from Chamberlain University and Walden University, graduating with Presidential Honors, reflecting my commitment to clinical excellence. My diverse professional background spans inpatient psychiatric hospitals, residential treatment centers, and outpatient clinics, giving me insight into mental health treatment at every level of care. I specialize in treating depression, anxiety, autism spectrum disorders, eating disorders, and substance use disorders across age groups. My experience includes working with children as young as eight through adults in crisis stabilization, residential treatment, and ongoing medication management.

What makes my practice unique is the integration of my nursing background with psychiatric expertise. I understand how physical health, medications, lifestyle factors, and mental health interconnect. Being trilingual in English, Hindi, and Punjabi, with conversational Spanish, allows me to serve diverse communities and appreciate how culture shapes mental health experiences.

I've worked from UCSF Health to community clinics, teaching me that excellent care isn't about the setting—it's about the relationship. Whether you're seeking help for the first time, between providers, or managing ongoing conditions, I'm here to partner with you. My approach centers on listening first, explaining clearly, and making decisions together. Mental health treatment should never feel like something done to you, but rather something we navigate together. I'm committed to creating a space where you feel respected, understood, and genuinely supported.

Happy patient looking away

Find the right psychiatrist for you

Headway makes it easy to find support for your mental health — from finding the right provider, to understanding costs, to scheduling with ease.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Therapist in Palmdale

Finding the right psychiatrist in Palmdale starts with understanding the type of care you need. Psychiatrists are medical doctors who can diagnose mental health conditions, prescribe medication, and in some cases offer talk therapy. If you are looking for help with anxiety, depression, ADHD, bipolar disorder, or medication management, a psychiatrist may be a good fit. Psychiatric nurse practitioners (PMHNPs) can also evaluate, diagnose, and manage medication — and are another option available through Headway.

Palmdale is part of the Antelope Valley, where access to in-network psychiatric providers can be limited compared to other parts of Los Angeles County. Virtual sessions can expand your options significantly, connecting you with licensed providers across California who specialize in the care you need. When evaluating a provider, consider their experience with your specific concerns, whether they offer virtual or in-person visits, and how their approach aligns with your preferences. Reading a provider's bio can help you decide if they are a good match before booking.

Psychiatry sessions can be expensive without insurance coverage. Using your in-network benefits is one of the most reliable ways to lower your out-of-pocket costs. On Headway, you can enter your insurance details to see estimated session costs upfront, and your out-of-pocket expense may be as low as $0 per session, though costs vary based on your location and exact insurance coverage. Nationally, Headway partners with over 100 insurance plans, making it easier to find a psychiatrist who is both the right clinical fit and covered by your plan.
