Wendi Benalt, MD, is a board-certified adult psychiatrist at Adelpha Psychiatric Group in Encino, California.

She left OBGYN and, after a lot of soul-searching, returned to UCLA, where she completed her psychiatry residency and served as the Chief Resident of Reproductive Psychiatry.
Dr. Benalt enjoys treating patients with diverse mental health issues, using an approach that integrates targeted psychotherapy and medication management. She is particularly interested in women’s mental health (conditions specific to the menstrual cycle, infertility, pregnancy, the postpartum period, and the menopausal transition) and LGBTQ+ issues. She has experience with multiple psychotherapeutic modalities, including psychodynamic, cognitive behavioral, interpersonal, and Gestalt therapies.
