More about Joshua Eldridge

Dr. Joshua Eldridge is a Los Angeles and Santa Monica psychiatrist with a particular focus on treating depression, anxiety, ADHD, insomnia, and OCD. He is especially interested in working with college students, professionals, and creatives. First and foremost, he identifies the specific issues troubling his patients. He then discusses a variety of treatment options tailored to their unique needs—this may include medications, TMS, therapies, and lifestyle changes.

Dr. Eldridge discovered his passion for psychiatry due to its inherently human element. He found immense fulfillment in helping patients navigate the often invisible but profoundly impactful world of mental health. Each patient is a unique puzzle, requiring an individualized, multipronged approach.

Dr. Eldridge was drawn to Mindful Health Solutions due to its focus on evidence-based, cutting-edge treatments like TMS therapy and ketamine infusion therapy. For him, these options represent additional avenues for patients when traditional treatments may fall short.

He understands that taking the first step towards treatment can be challenging. Dr. Eldridge invites you to reach out: “It’s hard to pursue mental health treatment, whether it’s from fear of medications and their side effects, difficulty opening up to new people about intimate details of your life, or even if you are unsure if you actually have a problem in the first place. I get that. I would love to listen to your story, answer your questions, and discuss the options available to you. I will meet you where you are at with nonjudgmental guidance and collaboration.”

Personal Interests

Outside of work, Dr. Eldridge enjoys creating and experiencing music, snowboarding, playing soccer, and reading books. He loves living in Los Angeles for the good weather, cultural variety, and natural beauty.

Education & Experience

After graduating from Stanford University with a bachelor’s degree in Science, Technology, and Society, Dr. Eldridge attended Baylor College of Medicine in Houston, TX. At Baylor, he discovered a passion for neurobiology, psychology, and mental health, leading him to pursue a residency in Adult Psychiatry at the University of Southern California.
