Psychiatric Mental Health NP

I've built my career working in adult medicine, with a deep focus on addiction and medication assisted treatment. Anxiety and depression are areas where I find this work especially rewarding. Regardless of what brings you here, I come to every session with genuine curiosity and a commitment to building real rapport. I see clients virtually, and I keep afternoon and evening hours on weekdays so scheduling can work around your life. Strong patient retention has always been a hallmark of how I practice, and I look forward to building that same kind of relationship with you.

Hi there, I am Stacey Sciacchitano, a licensed Psychotherapist based in Southern California. My work is rooted in the belief that anxiety is not a flaw, it is a protective system that has worked very hard for a long time.

Jennifer Roberts

Therapist

Virtual • California


I'm a licensed Marriage and Family Therapist helping my clients find more congruency and peace in their lives. People often believe that their feelings of anxiety and depression are their individual problem or failure, but very often these feelings are just a normal response to a challenging world. They come to their first session worried that they are crazy or deficient in some way, but they’re not. You don’t have to feel this way. I can help you develop understandings about how you are responding to your world, how you are making meaning of your life and how those meanings might be causing you to feel anxious, sad, hopeless, and frustrated. I have decades of experience helping people create lives that feel safe, meaningful, and more joyfully aligned with who they are and what they want.

Welcome to my online psychotherapy practice! I have been a licensed clinical social worker for 20 years working with the Department of Veterans Affairs as a clinical supervisor. My background is in metabolic mental health, general health, mental wellbeing, and geriatrics, and I bring a warm, empowering, and solution oriented style to every session. I draw on cognitive behavioral therapy, motivational interviewing, and mindfulness based approaches depending on what a client actually needs. We can work with your doctor to improve your overall mood and health. After years of supporting Veterans and adults through complex health and life transitions, I understand how physical health, aging, and mental health intersect, and I bring that lens into the room. I can help.
