Hello, I'm Mindy. I'm a board-certified psychiatric mental health nurse practitioner with 16 years of clinical experience. My path has included military service, community health work in rural Morocco, and care across many settings, from intensive care to hospice. These experiences shape how I show up: with warmth, curiosity, cultural humility, and respect for everyone's story. I treat the whole person, not just the diagnosis.
That means taking time to dig into your history, what has worked, what has not, and what you actually want from your care. Whether that is medication management or medication management with therapy, we figure it out together.
I work with adolescents, adults, and older adults navigating anxiety, depression, ADHD, trauma, bipolar disorder, and life transitions including loss, chronic illness, major life changes, and times when you just cannot name what is wrong yet.

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 Therapist in Redwood City
Finding psychiatrists in Redwood City 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 support concerns like anxiety, depression, ADHD, trauma, relationship stress, and grief. Both can be helpful entry points depending on what you are looking for, and some people work with both a therapist and a prescriber.
Redwood City has a smaller local care market than nearby San Francisco or San Jose, so virtual psychiatry can help expand your options while keeping care connected to your schedule. Medication management appointments are often shorter and less frequent than therapy sessions, and some psychiatrists also offer therapy as part of care. As you compare options, look at appointment availability, whether a free phone consultation is offered, and what each bio says about the psychiatrist’s focus, communication style, and experience with your concerns.
Psychiatric care in Redwood City 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 you book. Headway helps you find psychiatrists who are accepting new patients and take your plan, then shows your estimated out-of-pocket cost upfront so you can review bios, compare availability, 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.
