"Optimal performance is a discipline—built through growth, recovery, and resilience."
— Dr. Lawrence Choy
As a Stanford-trained psychiatrist and endurance athlete practicing in Silicon Valley, I have built my career at the intersection of clinical neuroscience and high performance living. My most meaningful insights, however, weren't gained from the classroom or textbook— they were forged through lived experience: navigating my own late-diagnosed ADHD, guiding my son through his own neurodivergent journey, and walking alongside my spouse through the lifelong course of a rare, acquired autoimmune disease.
My approach to Lifestyle Psychiatry is designed for high-achieving individuals who demand more from life— especially those navigating neurodivergence, chronic stress, or a mind that works differently. By integrating precision medicine, neuroplasticity, and mental wellness, I help my patients optimize their brain, body, and mind— not just to meet the demands of a high-performance life, but to redefine what's possible.
