Hi, I’m Wendy Agyapong, a Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner with a background in nursing and a passion for helping adults navigate depression, anxiety, and life’s daily stressors. I completed my master’s in nursing and have years of experience supporting individuals on their mental health journeys. My goal is to help you feel balanced, confident, and understood in every step of your care.
Hello, I'm Arch Jungers, PMHNP-BC, and I came to psychiatric care more than seven years as a psychiatric charge RN, leading care teams and sitting with patients in their most difficult moments, before becoming a Nurse Practitioner. I truly believe that together, we can solve any mental health problem. When I'm not here, I'm loving on my dogs, playing tennis, or bowling in my weekly league. I am looking forward to meeting you and seeing how I can be of service to you.
I provide psychiatric evaluations, medication management, and supportive therapy for kids, teens and adults. I specialize in treating ADHD, anxiety, depression, mood disorders and trauma-related conditions. For individuals concerned about ADHD, I offer comprehensive evaluations that may include FDA-cleared computerized testing, clinical interviews, and standardized rating scales to help support an accurate diagnosis and guide treatment decisions. My goal is to provide clear answers, personalized care, and practical strategies that help you function at your best.
My patients can expect me to be warm, empathetic, and genuinely interested in their story. I take time to understand not just current struggles, but also personal history and experiences that have shaped who they are. I believe that mental health is deeply connected to overall health, and treating psychiatric conditions can positively impact all areas of life. I work with all patients and conditions, and I always meet people where they are. If someone isn’t ready for medications, I fully support their choice and will be there to provide guidance, education, and care until the time feels right for them. Above all, I listen, I value each person’s perspective, and I aim to create a safe space where patients feel truly heard.
I am a board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner and Family Nurse Practitioner with over 15 years of experience in healthcare. I work with adolescents, teenagers, and adults navigating anxiety, depression, stress, trauma, mood disorders, life transitions, and emotional burnout.
My goal is to create a safe, supportive, and judgment-free environment where clients feel heard, respected, and empowered. I understand that mental health is deeply connected to daily life, relationships, culture, and personal experiences, and I take a compassionate, whole-person approach to care.
I’m a Board-Certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner who believes mental health care should feel human—not rushed or impersonal.
I provide a non-judgmental space where you can speak openly and feel understood. My approach integrates thoughtful medication management with psychotherapy when appropriate, always tailored to your individual needs.
Diagnosis can be an important part of understanding your experience, but it’s only one piece of the picture. I look at your mental, physical, and emotional well-being, as well as the life experiences that shape what you’re going through.
I offer collaborative, grounded care to help you move toward a more balanced, integrative, and holistic sense of well-being.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Therapist in Encino
Finding psychiatrists in Encino starts with understanding the type of mental health care you want to book. Psychiatrists can diagnose mental health conditions, prescribe medication, and manage medication over time. Psychiatric nurse practitioners may also provide this type of care. Therapists provide talk therapy and may work with concerns like anxiety, depression, ADHD, bipolar disorder, and OCD. Some people start with a therapist, some start with a prescriber, and some work with both. As you compare options, look for a psychiatrist whose listed specialties and care focus match what you want to address.
Encino has local psychiatry options, and availability may vary by schedule, office location, and appointment type. Virtual appointments can expand your search beyond the nearest office while still giving you access to California-based psychiatrists. Medication management visits are often shorter and less frequent than therapy sessions, though some psychiatrists also offer therapy. Before booking, review each profile for availability, appointment format, areas of focus, and whether a free phone consultation is offered. Bios can also help you understand communication style and what to expect in a first visit.
Psychiatric care in Encino can be a significant expense without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs and understand what you may pay before your first appointment. Headway helps you search for psychiatrists who take your plan, shows estimated out-of-pocket costs before you book, and verifies that listed psychiatrists are accepting new patients with your insurance. You can browse profiles, compare fit, and book directly when you’re ready.
If you're already taking psychiatric medication and considering switching providers, talk to your current prescriber before changing or stopping any medication — most psychiatric medications shouldn't be stopped abruptly. Anyone experiencing thoughts of self-harm or in acute crisis should call 988 or go to the nearest emergency department rather than wait for an outpatient appointment.
