I’m Saby Kirpal, a Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner committed to providing thorough, well-rounded mental health care. I hold Master’s degrees from both Chamberlain University and Walden University, where I graduated with Presidential Honors, a reflection of my dedication to high clinical standards.
My professional experience spans inpatient psychiatric hospitals, residential treatment centers, and outpatient clinics, which has given me a clear understanding of mental health care at every level. My clinical focus includes depression, anxiety, autism spectrum disorders, eating disorders, and substance use disorders across all age groups. I care for children as young as eight, teens, and adults, and young people and their families are always welcome in my practice. My work has included crisis stabilization, residential programs, and ongoing medication management.
What makes my practice distinctive is the way I blend my nursing background with psychiatric expertise. I understand how physical health, medications, daily habits, and mental health all affect one another. I am fluent in English, Hindi, and Punjabi and speak conversational Spanish, which allows me to serve diverse communities and appreciate the many ways culture shapes how people experience mental health.
My work has taken me from UCSF Health to community clinics, and those experiences taught me that excellent care depends far more on the relationship than on the setting. Whether you are seeking help for the first time, transitioning between clinicians, or managing an ongoing condition, I am here to partner with you. I always listen first, explain things clearly, and make decisions with you rather than for you. Treatment should never feel like something done to you; it should be something we navigate together. I am dedicated to creating a space where you feel respected, understood, and truly supported, and every step forward, however small, is worth celebrating.
I am a bilingual (Spanish & English) marriage and family therapist licensed in California with over 14 years of experience working in clinical practice. I am born and raised in San Francisco's Mission District. I am Salvarodan and Nicaraguan; and a native Spanish speaker. I have served clients experiencing multiple occurring conditions requiring some form of crisis stabilization service or intervention. I have counseled individuals and families dealing with an array of issues such as immigration/deportation, domestic and community violence, teen pregnancy, work – readiness, homelessness, substance abuse, and more. I use a client-centered and strengths-based approach when I work with clients. I believe that it is critical to collaborate with cleints in identifying and attaining what they are seeking. I believe that clients are experts in their lives and I am an expert my field.
I’m a warm, direct, and down-to-earth therapist with over seven years of clinical experience. I believe therapy works best when you feel genuinely understood and comfortable being yourself. I have a deep connection to the Jewish community and a particular interest in helping people navigate faith, culture, and identity, while welcoming clients from all backgrounds. My goal is to meet you where you are and create a space where you can be honest, supported, and heard.
I offer individual psychotherapy for adults healing from trauma, and working to
have a different relationship with others, themselves, their bodies, and food.
Located in Sacramento, California, I offer a combination of individual and group
sessions in addition to telehealth throughout California. My work is person-
centered, grounded in warmth, curiosity, and respect for everyone’s unique
story. Whether you are navigating eating disorder recovery, body image distress,
trauma, or identity exploration, therapy can be a place to gently make sense of
what feels overwhelming.
As a trauma-informed and trauma-trained therapist, I believe healing happens
not only through insight, but through felt experience. Together, I will support
you in learning how safety, connection, and regulation can live in the body again.
I specialize in working with adults and queer individuals navigating trauma,
eating disorder recovery, and body image distress.
Hello, I'm Arch Jungers, PMHNP-BC, and I came to psychiatric care more than seven years as a psychiatric charge RN, leading care teams and sitting with patients in their most difficult moments, before becoming a Nurse Practitioner. I truly believe that together, we can solve any mental health problem. When I'm not here, I'm loving on my dogs, playing tennis, or bowling in my weekly league. I am looking forward to meeting you and seeing how I can be of service to you.
