IMPORTANT: For current availability, visit https://mentalhealthpractitioners.com/ or call/text us anytime at 415-968-6515—we make it super easy! Intake forms are required before your first appointment and will be emailed to you when you book online. Please be sure to send us a picture of your insurance information and photo ID!

I'm Stephanie Patrick-Calvillo, a Board-Certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner who believes mental health care should be accessible, compassionate, and tailored to each individual. Over the past 15+ years, I've worked with diverse populations—from adolescents facing their first mental health crisis to adults navigating complex psychiatric conditions, and seniors experiencing cognitive and emotional challenges.

My practice is grounded in the belief that effective treatment goes beyond symptom management. I take time to understand your unique story, your strengths, and the factors that shape your mental health. Whether you're dealing with a new diagnosis or have been managing symptoms for years, I meet you where you are with respect and without judgment.

I specialize in treating mood disorders, anxiety, psychotic disorders, personality disorders, substance use concerns, and behavioral issues related to dementia. I've completed advanced certification training because I'm committed to staying current with evidence-based treatments—ensuring you receive care that reflects the latest research.

Beyond clinical work, I'm passionate about mentoring the next generation of healthcare providers. I've mentored nursing and nurse practitioner students from multiple universities, which keeps me grounded and reminds me why this work matters.

When you work with me, you're getting someone who genuinely cares, who's seen mental health challenges from many angles, and who believes deeply in your capacity for healing and growth.

Happy patient looking away

Find an expert who truly understands maternal mental health

Headway helps you find expert-guided support for every stage of motherhood — from finding the right therapist or psychiatrist, to understanding costs, to scheduling with ease.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Postpartum Therapist in Fremont

Searching for postpartum therapists in Fremont starts with finding someone whose training matches this stage of care. Postpartum support can include help with postpartum depression, postpartum anxiety, birth-related stress, identity shifts, and relationship strain. As you compare therapists, look for experience with perinatal mental health, therapy for new parents, or counseling during pregnancy and postpartum. Some therapists also list specialized training, such as a perinatal mental health certification, which can help you spot a stronger clinical fit.

In a mid-size city like Fremont, your best match may depend on more than office location. Local in-person options can work well if you prefer care near home, work, or nearby communities in the East Bay. Virtual therapy can also make it easier to access perinatal therapists when schedules, infant care, or physical recovery make travel harder to plan. Before booking, compare appointment availability, whether a therapist is accepting new patients, and the way each bio describes their approach, communication style, and experience with therapy for new parents.

Therapy in Fremont can be a significant investment without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs, especially when you can review your estimated out-of-pocket cost before booking. Headway helps you find Fremont therapists who are accepting new patients, offers virtual and in-person appointments, and accepts a wide range of insurance plans nationally. You can browse therapists, review bios, check your coverage, and book directly when you’re ready.

1 Cost may vary based on your location, age, and insurance coverage.
