As a PMHNP-BC who specializes in autism, complex cases, OCD, personality disorders, PTSD/trauma, schizophrenia/psychosis disorders, and substance use, I've built my practice around understanding that every person's mental health journey is unique—especially when multiple conditions interact or when traditional approaches haven't worked.

I also provide comprehensive treatment for depression, anxiety, panic disorders, mood disorders, and bipolar disorder, always with an understanding that these conditions often overlap and influence each other in complex ways. What I want you to know is this: your experiences are valid, your struggles make sense in the context of your life, and there's no such thing as being "too much" for treatment.

Whether you're masking autistic traits, battling compulsive behaviors, managing intense emotions, processing trauma, questioning reality, or struggling with substances, I meet you exactly where you are without trying to force you into a predetermined mold. My approach combines evidence-based treatments with deep respect for your individual needs and experiences.

You deserve a provider who doesn't see complexity as a problem to solve, but as a roadmap to understanding how to best support your unique path to wellness.

Jennifer Eastman

Psychiatric Mental Health NP

Virtual • San Diego, CA


Hello, I'm Jennifer Eastman, a board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner. I provide comprehensive care for the full spectrum of complex psychiatric conditions, including ADHD, autism spectrum disorders, OCD, personality disorders, PTSD and trauma, schizophrenia and psychosis disorders, substance use disorders, depression, anxiety, panic disorders, mood disorders, and bipolar conditions. My practice is dedicated to supporting individuals who need specialized expertise across multiple areas.

What sets my practice apart is my extensive experience with co-occurring conditions and complex presentations. Many patients come to me after struggling to find providers comfortable with their multifaceted needs. I understand that conditions like ADHD and autism often intersect with trauma, that personality patterns can develop alongside substance use, and that psychotic symptoms can complicate other diagnoses.

My approach combines evidence-based treatments with genuine empathy and respect for your unique journey. Whether you're seeking your first diagnosis, managing multiple conditions, or looking for someone who can see the bigger picture of your mental health, I bring the expertise and patience needed to address complexity without judgment.

I believe in collaborative care where your voice guides treatment decisions. Together, we'll work to understand your conditions, develop effective strategies, and build resilience. Real progress begins with feeling truly understood. I'm here to support you with clinical excellence and compassionate care every step of the way.
