Loren Neiswender

Psychiatric Mental Health NP

Virtual & in-person • Los Angeles, CA


I am Loren Neiswender, DNP, PMHNP, a board certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner.

I know finding the right mental health provider can feel overwhelming my goal is to create a welcoming judgment free space where you feel heard understood and empowered to take an active role in your treatment.

A little background: I attended Loma Linda University School Nursing for my Bachelor of Science and RN degrees, Cal State Long Beach for my Master of Science and Nurse Practitioner degrees, and most recently UCLA for my Doctor of Nursing practice degree.

The boring details: I offer both telehealth and in person psychiatric services telehealth appointments are available to patients anywhere in California with in-person visits offered in San Bernardino and at my Brentwood satellite office by appointment.

My philosophy: I firmly believe mental health treatment works best when it is collaborative. My goal is to create a space where you feel heard, respected, and actively involved in developing a treatment plan that fits your unique needs and goals. Whether you are struggling with anxiety, depression, ADHD, mood disorders, or other mental health concerns we will work together to help you move forward toward lasting wellness.

I have over a decade of experience as a psychiatric nurse practitioner and previously spent nearly 10 years as a neonatal intensive care (NICU) nurse. These experiences have shaped my whole-personal approach to care and deep appreciation for clinical connection between physical health, emotional well-being, and family dynamics.

I offer both medication management and supportive therapy taking time to educate patients about their diagnosis and treatment options so they can make informed decisions about their own care.

Shari Gilbert

Therapist

Virtual • California


I have been in the healing professions throughout my adult life, initially as a Registered Nurse, working in many different specialities (NICU, pediatrics, and Clinical Trials for Hepatitis C). I’m grateful for both careers and maintain an active interest in medicine and alternative healing. I practice Christian Counseling and my goal as a therapist is to meet you where you’re at and walk with you to a healthier, stronger place. For those of different faiths, I offer counseling oriented toward growth and healing, grounded in traditional values.

If you are experiencing anxiety, depression, grief and loss, difficulty in relationships or other concerns, and are desiring a therapeutic approach aligned with a Christian worldview or traditional values, I would be honored to speak with you.

I offer compassionate, supportive care where you’ll feel heard, valued, and encouraged in your journey of growth and healing. Member of the Focus on the Family Referral Network and American Association of Christian Counselors.
