Hi! I'm Christina Stelly, DNP, APRN, PMHNP-BC — a board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner based in Martinez, CA. With over 15 years of clinical experience across inpatient psychiatry, maternal health, and advanced practice, I am deeply committed to delivering compassionate, evidence-based mental health care to every person I serve.

I specialize in treating schizophrenia, bipolar disorder, PTSD, depression, anxiety, etc.

My academic background includes a Post-Certificate DNP in Psychiatric Mental Health from the University of Illinois Chicago, a Doctorate of Nursing Practice from Texas Tech University, and a Master of Science in Nursing from Touro University. I also completed an intensive NP residency focused on advanced psychiatric care, crisis stabilization, and forensic psychiatry, which further strengthened my clinical expertise.

Earlier in my career, I specialized in maternal mental health, serving as a Patient Care Director for high-risk obstetric populations and contributing to perinatal mental health policy at the state and national levels. This background gives me a uniquely broad, whole-person perspective on psychiatric care across the lifespan.

My approach is grounded in trauma-informed, individualized care. I take time to fully understand your history, concerns, and goals before collaboratively building a treatment plan tailored to you. I have also served on health policy committees and presented at national nursing conferences, reflecting my commitment to psychiatric care.

I’m a doctoral-prepared, board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner who works with clients across the lifespan. I earned my Doctor of Nursing Practice degree from the University of Arizona and have experience caring for individuals in outpatient, intensive outpatient, and higher-acuity mental health settings. My background includes treating anxiety, depression, ADHD, trauma-related concerns, OCD, mood disorders, and substance use. I take a thoughtful, practical, and individualized approach to care, with the goal of helping clients feel understood, safe, supported, and comfortable being honest when feeling emotionally vulnerable.

I believe healing begins with feeling genuinely understood, supported, and accepted. My approach is warm, collaborative, and grounded in the belief that lasting change happens when people can safely explore their experiences without judgment.

Growing up in a military family and spending decades serving as a flight medic, deputy sheriff, and firefighter taught me how deeply connection, trust, and stability shape emotional well-being, especially in environments where vulnerability can feel risky or costly. Those experiences continue to influence the way I work with clients today, creating a space where people can show up authentically and feel supported as they navigate life's challenges.

I work with adults facing anxiety, depression, stress, trauma, relationship challenges, life transitions, and the emotional demands of everyday life. Together, we identify patterns that may be keeping you stuck, develop practical tools for navigating challenges, and build on the strengths you already possess.

I value authenticity, curiosity, and clear communication, and I strive to create a space where clients feel comfortable being themselves. For clients who desire it, I also offer faith-informed counseling that thoughtfully integrates spiritual beliefs into the therapeutic process, recognizing that faith can be an important source of meaning, resilience, and healing.

Whether you are navigating a difficult season, working through longstanding concerns, or simply seeking greater clarity and balance, I am committed to helping you build resilience, increase self-understanding, and create meaningful change.

I have worked with a variety of clients of all ages and cultural backgrounds. My primary focus has been on individual therapy but enjoy working with couples and families as well. I bring empathy, unconditional positive regard, and genuineness to all of my therapy sessions.

Asking for help can feel harder when you've spent most of your life being the one who holds things together. I'm Neydi, a bilingual English and Spanish speaking Licensed Clinical Social Worker with 13 years of experience working with children, adolescents, adults, and seniors. I work with individuals and families navigating trauma, grief, anxiety, and substance use. These challenges rarely arrive alone and almost always connect back to our relationships, our families, and the communities we come from. Clients often describe me as warm, direct, and genuinely invested.

I believe therapy works best when people feel genuinely seen, heard, and understood. I work with individuals facing depression, anxiety, trauma, substance abuse, relationship challenges, and difficult life transitions. With 4 years of experience, I strive to create a supportive and judgment-free space where clients can feel comfortable exploring their thoughts and emotions at their own pace.
