Evelyn Ciampa

Psychiatric Mental Health NP

Hi, I'm Evelyn! As a seasoned psychiatric nurse practitioner with over four years of experience, I'm passionate about helping children, teens, and adults navigate their mental health journeys with compassion and understanding.

I believe everyone deserves to feel heard and empowered in their healing process. Through my work with diverse populations—from children as young as six to adults with complex mental health challenges—I've learned the importance of meeting patients exactly where they are, without judgment and with genuine care.

I specialize in ADHD assessment, medication management, and coaching across all ages. Having witnessed how ADHD impacts every aspect of life, I take a comprehensive approach beyond medication. I help families understand ADHD systems, develop coping strategies, and create academic accommodations for success.

My experience includes managing complex psychiatric conditions and treatment-refractory illnesses requiring specialized medications like lithium and dual-antipsychotic treatments. I believe in holistic care, emphasizing how nutrition, physical activity, mindful practices, and sleep hygiene support mental wellness alongside medication.

What sets my practice apart is collaborative care. I work closely with patients and families to create individualized, achievable treatment goals. Whether addressing anxiety, depression, ADHD, or other conditions, I prioritize building therapeutic relationships where you feel safe sharing your experiences.

I maintain high standards with comprehensive malpractice insurance, current California licensure, and DEA certification. My approach includes medication monitoring and regular prescription checks for your safety.

My practice is built on the foundation that everyone deserves compassionate, personalized mental health care. I look forward to partnering with you to achieve the balance and peace you're seeking.

Danica Trinidad

Danica Trinidad

Psychiatric Mental Health NP

Virtual • California


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.
