Meet Dr. Mike Mah

Michael Mahgerefteh, MD, known to his patients as Dr. Mike Mah, is a board-certified integrative psychiatrist in Century City. He runs a private, out-of-network practice for adults across Los Angeles and California, with particular focus on anxiety, OCD, and mood disorders including depression and bipolar disorder. His broader general practice covers ADHD, PTSD, personality disorders, and related conditions. Other focused areas include social anxiety and self-esteem.
Dr. Mike Mah is also the founder and supervising psychiatrist of Century City Psychiatry, his insurance-based group practice where a hand-selected team of clinicians delivers care under his direct clinical supervision. Patients who prefer to use insurance can be seen at Century City Psychiatry under the same clinical standard. Dr. Mike Mah also maintains a strong network of trusted colleagues across Los Angeles, including personalized therapist referrals matched to each patient's evaluation and needs. A hand-selected list rather than a generic directory.
Board-certified by the American Board of Psychiatry and Neurology, Dr. Mike Mah trained at UCLA and UC Irvine and has been named a Top Doctor by Los Angeles Magazine, Castle Connolly, and Super Doctors. He offers discreet, thoughtful care in person at his Century City office and by telehealth across California.
