Trauma and PTSD therapists & psychiatrists in Vacaville, CA

I’m a licensed therapist trained in somatic psychology at the California Institute of Integral Studies. I work with individuals, couples, and men, supporting clients with anxiety (including social anxiety), depression, ADHD, relationship challenges, trauma, and life transitions. I also help people navigating loneliness, work-related stress, and cultural or identity-related experiences, including multiracial relationships. My goal is to help people better understand themselves, their patterns, and how they relate to others. I tend to be warm, down-to-earth, and collaborative, while also being direct when it’s helpful.

Hi, and welcome! I am Joy Nnebe, a Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner. I am thrilled you’re considering working with me.

I have 8 years of experience in psychiatric/mental health nursing, and I specialize in treating anxiety, depression, bipolar disorder, insomnia, trauma, and more, using approaches like CBT therapy and trauma-informed care. I aim to provide simple, non-judgmental, supportive, and personalized care to help you feel understood and empowered on your mental health journey.

Hi, I’m a psychiatric nurse practitioner who believes everyone deserves to feel heard, supported, and treated with kindness. I create a warm, welcoming, and judgment-free space where you can feel comfortable being yourself. I work with clients experiencing anxiety, depression, stress, mood changes, and other mental health concerns. Along with medication management, I also use supportive therapy techniques, including CBT and motivational interviewing, to help clients build healthy coping skills and feel more confident in their daily lives.

Mental health has long been treated as the forgotten side of healthcare — and for me, that's exactly why it matters so much. As a Psychiatric Nurse Practitioner serving clients across California through telehealth and in-person care, I specialize in helping people navigate depression, anxiety, and ADD/ADHD. I believe that when mental health struggles go unaddressed, everything else in life suffers — and that healing is not only possible, it's necessary. When I'm not supporting my clients, you'll find me out in nature, getting lost in a good movie, or discovering new music — small reminders of the joy and balance I encourage my clients to find for themselves.

I believe healing happens when people feel truly seen, understood, and accepted. My goal is to provide a compassionate, nonjudgmental space where you can explore your story at your own pace and reconnect with hope.

I specialize in working with adults who are navigating trauma, anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, childhood wounds, betrayal, and the lasting effects of narcissistic or emotionally unhealthy relationships. I also enjoy supporting people of faith who are working through spiritual wounds while preserving or rebuilding a healthy relationship with God.

I earned my Master's degree in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from Grand Canyon University and am a Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor (LPCC) in California and an Associate Professional Counselor (APC) in Oregon. I have specialized training in EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing), Internal Family Systems (IFS), and Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT), allowing me to tailor treatment to each client's unique needs.

Whether you're feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or simply longing for greater peace and freedom, I would be honored to walk alongside you in your healing journey.
