Danica Trinidad

Danica Trinidad

Psychiatric Mental Health NP

Virtual • Los Angeles, CA


Hi, I'm Danica Trinidad, MSN, PMHNP-BC. I've spent my career in critical care, inpatient psychiatry, and outpatient mental health, caring for patients of every age and acuity, and that range is the reason I check the medical picture before I settle on a psychiatric explanation.

I treat adults living with anxiety, depression, bipolar disorder, ADHD, panic, trauma, and PTSD. My work combines medication management with psychotherapy, practical lifestyle changes, and real education about what you are taking and why. I treat the whole person, not the symptom list.

Your first evaluation is a full sixty minutes, and you see me at every appointment after it; with the same validated measures each visit, so progress is something we can both point at.

Mindy Leake

Mindy Leake

Psychiatric Mental Health NP

Virtual & in-person • Novato, CA


Hello, I'm Mindy. I'm a board-certified psychiatric mental health nurse practitioner with 16 years of clinical experience. My path has included military service, community health work in rural Morocco, and care across many settings, from intensive care to hospice. These experiences shape how I show up: with warmth, curiosity, cultural humility, and respect for everyone's story. I treat the whole person, not just the diagnosis.

That means taking time to dig into your history, what has worked, what has not, and what you actually want from your care. Whether that is medication management or medication management with therapy, we figure it out together.

I work with adolescents, adults, and older adults navigating anxiety, depression, ADHD, trauma, bipolar disorder, and life transitions including loss, chronic illness, major life changes, and times when you just cannot name what is wrong yet.
