Camille Concepcion

Hi! I’m Camille. Thank you for being here. For more than 15 years, I’ve had the privilege of caring for individuals and families across many different healthcare settings—from emergency nursing and the COVID-19 pandemic response to travel and concierge nursing, Intensive Outpatient Programs (IOP), Partial Hospitalization Programs (PHP), and outpatient psychiatry. After years of living and working in major cities, including New York and Los Angeles, I eventually found my way to California’s Sierra Nevada foothills. My own experiences shape the way I connect with people. I’m a mother, a first-generation immigrant, part of a multicultural family, and a member of a rural mountain community. A meaningful part of my work is with high-achieving adults—professionals, executives, graduate students, entrepreneurs, healthcare workers, and others who may appear to be doing well by every external measure while privately feeling overwhelmed, disconnected, burned out, or simply not quite like themselves. I also understand the unique weight that can come with intergenerational expectations, cultural identity, and learning to navigate more than one world at once.

I believe you are the expert on your own life. I bring another set of eyes, psychiatric expertise, and evidence-based guidance to help you make sense of what feels messy and decide what works for you. My approach is holistic, personalized and collaborative. I’ll tell you what I notice, ask the questions that may be worth sitting with for deper insight work, and give practical tools to move toward a life that feels more like your own.

Your first appointment typically lasts 75 minutes and is designed to provide a comprehensive understanding of your mental health concerns, medical history, current symptoms, medications, lifestyle, sleep, relationships, strengths, and treatment goals.

This visit may include:

A comprehensive psychiatric evaluation

Discussion of your concerns and goals

Review of previous treatments, medications and history

Diagnostic impressions

Personalized treatment recommendations

Education about your diagnosis and treatment options

Development of a collaborative care plan, which may include medication, supportive therapy, lifestyle recommendations, referrals, or other evidence-based treatments tailored to your needs

Please note that your initial appointment is a consultation and does not automatically establish a provider-patient relationship. During this visit, you and your provider will discuss your concerns, review treatment recommendations, and determine if they are a right fit for your needs. If you and your provider mutually agree on a treatment plan and ongoing care, a therapeutic provider-patient relationship will be established

.

Psychiatric care is often longitudinal, meaning that understanding your mental health develops over time. A diagnosis, medication, or prescription may not be provided during the initial consultation. In some cases, additional information, such as prior medical records, laboratory results, collateral information, or one or more follow-up visits, is needed before an accurate diagnosis or safe treatment recommendations can be made. Our goal is to provide safe, thoughtful, evidence-based care rather than rushing to a diagnosis or prescribing medication before it is clinically appropriate.
