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.

Dr. Judy Yuen

Dr. Judy Yuen

Psychologist

Virtual • California


Most of the people I work with have been told — or have told themselves — that they should be able to handle this. They're healthcare professionals, leaders, or both. They know what stress is. They've managed harder things. Therapy felt like something for other people, until something shifted. I work with people at that turning point. Sixteen years in healthcare, as a clinician and a leader, means I understand what it actually feels like to carry the weight of high-stakes work — the complexity, the responsibility, and the very specific kind of exhaustion that doesn't go away with a long weekend. I practice virtually throughout California and take Aetna, Cigna, and BlueCross BlueShield. You don't have to arrive with the right words or a clear agenda. That's what the first session is for.
