Psychiatric Mental Health NP

Virtual • California


I'm Virginia Rubio, a Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner. I earned my Master of Science in Nursing from Wilkes University and my Bachelor of Science in Nursing from the University of Texas at Arlington.

Before becoming a nurse practitioner, I spent more than a decade as a registered nurse in settings that shaped how I practice today. I worked telemetry and medical-surgical units at a community hospital, cared for patients at a state psychiatric hospital, and provided care in correctional and juvenile health settings. Those environments put me alongside people at some of the hardest points in their lives, often people who had been dismissed or overlooked elsewhere. That's where I learned that being genuinely listened to is itself part of treatment.

I work with adults experiencing anxiety, depression, trauma and PTSD, mood disorders, and sleep difficulties. I have a particular interest in women's mental health — perinatal concerns, hormonal and life transitions, and the specific pressures women often carry without naming them. I'm bilingual in English and Spanish, and I see patients throughout California by secure video.

Outside of work, I recharge with my family, time outdoors and on my feet, and a mindfulness practice I've kept up for years. Those things aren't separate from how I practice; they're a large part of why I believe daily habits and emotional health can't be pulled apart.

Therapist

You've done meaningful therapeutic work and you're ready to go deeper. You're successful in the external markers of your life, but you know there's more—greater depth, connection, and purpose waiting for you. You've addressed foundational trauma, and now you want to explore subtler patterns: how you hold back in intimacy, the meanings you're searching for, the fuller expression of yourself you sense is possible. You may be curious about psychedelic-assisted therapy as a tool for profound insight. You're not dealing with crisis, but are looking for a guide who can support you in moving from survival to fully living in your wholeness.

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.

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 Modesto

Searching for postpartum therapists in Modesto starts with finding someone whose training matches the care you want. Postpartum concerns can include more than depression, such as postpartum anxiety, birth-related stress, identity shifts, relationship strain, pregnancy loss, or miscarriage support. As you compare therapists, look for experience in perinatal mental health, maternal mental health, reproductive mental health, or pregnancy counseling. A certification such as PMH-C can also signal specialized training in care during pregnancy and the postpartum period.

In a mid-sized city like Modesto, the right local fit may depend on both specialty and schedule. In-person postpartum counseling in Modesto, CA, may work well if you prefer an office setting, while virtual appointments can expand your options and make care easier to fit around infant care, physical recovery, and changing routines. Before booking, review each therapist’s profile for appointment availability, therapy approach, and whether they offer a free phone consultation. Bios can also help you understand how a therapist talks about postpartum depression, postpartum anxiety, prenatal care, and related concerns.

Therapy in Modesto can be a significant investment without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs and understand what you may pay before care begins. Headway helps you search for licensed therapists who focus on postpartum and maternal mental health, accept a wide range of insurance plans, and are accepting new patients. You can enter your insurance details, review estimated costs, compare therapist bios, and book directly when you’re ready.
