About Dr. Mary Ann Schaepper

Starting the journey to see a psychiatrist can be daunting, but you’re already on the right path. I’m Dr. Mary Ann Schaepper, and my passion is helping people like you overcome mental health challenges. With over 20 years of experience and a background as a child, adolescent, and adult psychiatrist, psychodynamic and dialectical behavioral therapist, I’ll meet you where you are and create a personalized plan to help you thrive.

You will get better. I work with individuals and families to uncover the root causes of struggles, offering direct feedback and combining therapy with medication, or neuromodulation when needed. I take a holistic approach, addressing your psychological well-being, medical health, strengths, and social connections.

Professional Background

As a board-certified child, adolescent, and adult psychiatrist trained at Loma Linda University and UCLA, I specialize in treating a wide range of issues, including autism, adhd, gender dysphoria, women’s issues, conflict in the workplace, depression, and anxiety. My background as a teacher early on also gives me insight into the struggles of kids, parents, and educators. 

Something Personal

Outside of work, I’m passionate about adventure, speak three languages, and have been happily married for 45+ years. I understand the challenges of balancing family, career, and mental health, and I look forward to partnering with you on your journey to mental wellness.
