Hello. I am Rupi Legha, MD.

elite education with a critical lens

After graduating from Harvard Medical School, I completed nine years of post-graduate training in adult psychiatry, global mental health, and child and adolescent psychiatry. I was trained in the best of what biomedicine has to offer but am also aware of its limitations.

citizen of the world who celebrates diversity

I spent years working and living worldwide, including in Haiti, Peru, and South Korea. I respect and value diverse lived experiences, cultivate strengths, and never focus solely on pathology.
