Mrs. Evon Czok is a dual-certified Psychiatric and Family Practice Nurse Practitioner with over 30 years of nursing experience. A top graduate of her class (Mount Carmel College of Nursing, 2019, Ursuline College, 2025). She is deeply committed to partnering with clients on their journey toward wholeness. Her clinical focus includes anxiety, depression, ADHD, mood concerns, binge-eating behaviors, stress, emotional health, and supporting wellness and sustainable change through life transitions.
I believe therapy and psychiatric care should feel human, not clinical, rushed, or impersonal. My goal is to create a space where you feel genuinely heard, respected, and supported from the very first conversation. I take time to understand your story, your values, and what you want your life to look like, not just your symptoms.
I bring over a decade of experience working in mental health and addiction, and I use a balanced approach that blends evidence-based treatment with compassion and real connection. I do not believe in one-size-fits-all care. Your treatment is collaborative, flexible, and designed to support long-term growth, not just short-term relief.
Above all, you should know that you will not be treated like a diagnosis. You will be treated like a person.

Find the right psychiatrist for you
Headway makes it easy to find support for your mental health — from finding the right provider, to understanding costs, to scheduling with ease.
Factors to Consider When Choosing a Psychiatrist in Los Alamitos, CA
Finding the right psychiatrist in Los Alamitos starts with understanding the type of care you need. Psychiatrists and psychiatric mental health nurse practitioners can diagnose mental health conditions, prescribe medication, and manage medication over time. Therapists provide talk therapy and may work with you on concerns like anxiety, depression, ADHD, stress, trauma, or relationship challenges. If you are looking for medication management, psychiatric care may be a good fit. If you want talk therapy, a therapist may be the right place to start. Some people work with both.
Los Alamitos is a smaller local market, so nearby in-person psychiatry options may be more limited than in larger parts of Orange County or Long Beach. Virtual appointments can expand your options while keeping care connected to your schedule. Psychiatry visits for medication management are often shorter and less frequent than therapy sessions, though some psychiatrists also offer therapy. As you compare psychiatrists, look at appointment availability, whether they are accepting new patients, and how they describe their specialties. Reading bios can help you see their experience, communication style, and what to expect before you book.
Psychiatric care in Los Alamitos 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 care begins. Headway helps you find psychiatrists and psychiatric mental health nurse practitioners who match your needs and are accepting new patients. Enter your insurance details to confirm what coverage is available in your area. Enter your insurance details to see estimated costs upfront, review psychiatrist profiles, 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.
