I’m Tanmeet Sethi, MD: integrative physician, author, speaker, and breast cancer survivor thriver.
For 29+ years, I’ve practiced, taught, and researched medicine that refuses to choose between rigor and humanity. I’ve trained doctors to deliver both, and always fought for the patients the system too often leaves out. I’ve also been on the other side of the exam table, as a cancer patient and as the mother of a child with a fatal illness. I know exactly where care fails people, and what it takes to get it right.
My research includes psychedelic-assisted therapy for clinician burnout and for PTSD and alcohol use in veterans and first responders.
My focus: an integrative approach to menopause and midlife, trauma and mental health, healthspan, and helping cancer survivors thrive. Because healing doesn’t stop at the clinic door, but it has to start there.

Evidence-based medicine. Deeply human care.

Surviving is just the beginning
Speaking
I bring the same honesty to the stage that I bring to the exam room: real science, real stories, and no toxic positivity. My keynotes and workshops cover burnout and joy, trust and connection in an age of AI, and what it takes to thrive through life’s hardest chapters. Audiences leave with practical, science-backed tools they can use the next day. Organizations gain teams that are more connected and resilient, and a shared language for well-being that lasts long after the event.

Joy Is My Justice
As Seen In
Finally, a radical guide to challenge the platitudes of a whitewashed wellness world and navigate the hardest of times.
If you think finding Joy is too hard, too much to hope for, or only for people who are “resilient enough,” this book is for you. You are not broken, the systems that we live in are.
Joy is an innate human right accessible to all, regardless of our financial status, race, or gender expression. Finding it is a practice of healing and liberation in your body, where the truest Justice has always lived.
“We mostly turn away from our pain. I have. Tanmeet invites us to walk a stronger, more human path, surprisingly to Joy and Justice. I know her wisdom heals, as it has helped me, and my patients, become more whole. I urge you to make space for Tanmeet’s message in your life.”
―Drew Ramsey, MD, author of Eat To Beat Depression and Anxiety, Assistant Clinical Professor of Psychiatry at Columbia University

Note: Dr. Sethi is not taking new patients at this time.
If you’re a woman navigating midlife and are struggling with peri/menopause, disrupted sleep, brain fog, mood changes, chronic autoimmune or gut health challenges, you’re in the right place.

My approach will optimize how you feel and thrive in this world through an exploration of how you move and fuel your body (in food as well as thoughts), the balance of your hormonal and endocrine systems, toxin exposure in your environment, as well as your consciousness’ capacity to shift, all in the context of the community, family structure, and systems in which you live.
After an initial consultation, we will make a plan for care going forward that may include changing the way you move and eat, supplements or medications to optimize your biochemistry including HRT if indicated. I have sat with thousands of patients in suffering and am honored to use this experience to support you.

Midlife brings many changes, including to your vitality and mood. It can be a time of radical awakening but also feel like a struggle as your hormones, biochemistry and sense of meaning and purpose all experience shifts.
I have extensive experience in trauma-informed care, psychedelic medicine and navigating deep suffering with patients including at the end of life.
Together, we can navigate the challenges you are facing using medications whether it’s pharmaceuticals, HRT or supplements, weaning medications safely when needed, psychedelic medicine or through awakening to transformation through mind body medicine work.
