Hi, I’m a psychiatric nurse practitioner who believes everyone deserves to feel heard, supported, and treated with kindness. I create a warm, welcoming, and judgment-free space where you can feel comfortable being yourself. I work with clients experiencing anxiety, depression, stress, mood changes, and other mental health concerns. Along with medication management, I also use supportive therapy techniques, including CBT and motivational interviewing, to help clients build healthy coping skills and feel more confident in their daily lives.
Welcome!
I'm a board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner who believes mental health is just as important as physical health. I know that seeking help can feel intimidating, and I want to commend you for taking this first step.
I specialize in working with adults ages 18 to 65 who are dealing with ADHD, anxiety, and depression. My approach is warm, collaborative, and grounded in evidence-based care. I offer psychiatric evaluations, medication management, and ongoing support through secure telehealth appointments, making it easier to access care that fits your lifestyle.
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.
As a PMHNP-BC, I offer medication management and therapy sessions via Telehealth Mon-Fri 0900- 19:00.

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.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Psychiatry Psychiatrist in San Marcos, CA
Finding psychiatrists in San Marcos starts with understanding the type of care you want. Psychiatrists and psychiatric mental health nurse practitioners can diagnose mental health conditions, prescribe medication, and support medication management. Therapists focus on talk therapy and do not prescribe medication. People may look for psychiatric care for concerns like anxiety, depression, ADHD, bipolar disorder, or OCD. As you compare options, look for a psychiatrist whose listed specialties, experience, and care focus match what you want help with.
San Marcos has a smaller local market than nearby San Diego, so virtual appointments can give you more options while keeping care accessible from home. Psychiatric care often has a different rhythm than therapy: medication management appointments are usually shorter and less frequent than weekly therapy sessions. Some psychiatrists also offer therapy, and some people work with both a therapist and a prescriber. Before booking, review each psychiatrist’s bio for availability, appointment format, communication style, and whether a free phone consultation is offered.
Psychiatric care in San Marcos can be a significant expense without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to lower session costs and understand what you may pay before care begins. Headway helps you find psychiatrists who are accepting new patients, match your preferences, and take your plan. You can enter your insurance details, see estimated costs before booking, review bios, 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.
