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 San Jose

When you search for postpartum therapists in San Jose, start by looking for someone with training in perinatal mental health. Postpartum support can address more than postpartum depression, including postpartum anxiety, birth-related stress, identity shifts, and relationship strain. A therapist who lists postpartum, pregnancy, perinatal mental health, or a perinatal mental health certification (PMH-C) in their profile may have more focused experience with this type of care.

Local postpartum therapists in San Jose may have limited openings, especially if you need a specific schedule or in-person office location. Virtual therapy can expand your options while accommodating infant care, physical recovery, and changing daily routines. As you compare therapists, look at appointment availability, whether they are accepting new patients, and whether they offer a free phone consultation. Reading profiles can also help you understand each therapist’s approach, communication style, and experience with postpartum concerns before you book.

Therapy in San Jose can be a significant expense without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs and understand your expected out-of-pocket cost before your first appointment. Headway helps you find postpartum therapists who match your preferences and offer clear next steps, so you can review bios, compare availability, and book directly when you’re ready. You can also enter your insurance details on Headway to confirm your coverage before booking.
