Gowri Thummala, MD, is a board-certified psychiatrist who began her medical career journey in India and completed her residency training at the University of Central Florida. She brings a wide range of experience treating mental health conditions, including unipolar depression, anxiety, bipolar disorder, PTSD, schizophrenia, and schizoaffective disorder. She has a particular interest in supporting individuals living with depression, anxiety, and ADHD.
Dr. Thummala’s background includes work in both inpatient and outpatient settings, as well as advanced treatments such as transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) and esketamine therapy. She also holds a certification in reproductive psychiatry through Massachusetts General Hospital.
Dr. Thummala believes every person’s path to healing is unique. Her approach is collaborative—working closely with her patients to explore treatment options that best fit their needs, with the shared goal of finding meaningful relief and renewed hope.
Outside of work, you’ll often find her playing with her three dogs, experimenting with new recipes in the kitchen, or getting lost in a good book. From September through February, though, she’s a devoted NFL fan—go Bucs!
We’re proud to share that our three affiliated practices—Psych Atlanta, Georgia Psychiatry & Sleep, and Roots Behavioral Health—are now part of the Hightop Health family. While each clinic has built its own legacy of trusted care, we’re taking the next step forward—bringing everything together under the Hightop Health name.
This change is part of our commitment to creating a premier, clinician-led outpatient mental health group that sets a new standard for comprehensive, compassionate care. Though the brand is evolving, nothing about your experience is: same expert teams, same innovative treatments, same personalized approach. Now unified by a single mission—to deliver better mental health care that inspires hope and lasting healing.
This transition won’t affect your care—but it will enhance the way we show up, work together, and serve communities across Georgia, Texas, and beyond.
