Hello, nice to meet you! I’m Angelica, a board-certified psychiatric nurse practitioner with 24 years of nursing experience. I provide care to clients across Illinois, specializing in ADHD, anxiety, depression, insomnia, and bipolar disorder.

“Angelica was really nice and understanding of what I was explaining. I felt sabe telling her my process. It was really easy to talk to her as she would guide me by asking questions that would help her elaborate on the situation I was sharing. She was also very helpful explaining how the process was going to look and what she could do. She asked what the purpose of the meeting was and I think that was very helpful.”
