Jerica Mitchell, NP — Psychiatrist in California

Hi there, I'm Jerica!

I prefer my patients to be involved in the decision process surrounding their treatment plan. I want you and I both to feel comfortable with any medication or treatment plan I may prescribe. I focus my practice on treating anxiety disorders, depression, mood disorders, and insomnia.

My focus

I have worked with many types of patients in my practice. I am most comfortable treating adults who experience depression, anxiety disorders, mood disorders, and insomnia.

My approach

My approach is more holistic; I like to consider any and every aspect of your life when coming up with the best treatment plan for you. My approach may include lifestyle changes, therapy, supplements, and/or medication.

My communication style

I like to create a direct, laid-back, and judgment-free environment for my patients. I want my patients to feel comfortable and be able to share their thoughts without feeling like they are being judged.

My journey to mental healthcare

Psychiatry and mental health have always been my first choice within healthcare. I started as a psych nurse and realized that the human mind was intriguing. As a psych nurse, my passion for mental health grew because I was able to help those who were ostracized because of mental illness.

My goals for you

I welcome my patients to set their own goals.
