Vadim Sarkisyan

Hi, I’m Vadim Sarkisyan, a Board-Certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner and founder of VS MindCare. I provide compassionate, evidence-based care to adults experiencing anxiety, depression, bipolar disorder, PTSD, ADHD, insomnia, and related conditions. I began my nursing career in acute psychiatric settings, including Olive View–UCLA Medical Center’s Psychiatric Emergency Department, where I gained valuable experience caring for individuals in crisis. Over time, I transitioned into outpatient psychiatry, where I discovered my passion for helping clients achieve lasting emotional stability and personal growth. I earned my Psychiatric–Mental Health Nurse Practitioner degree from West Coast University and maintain certification through the ANCC.

My approach to care is collaborative, compassionate, and personalized. I believe the best outcomes come from truly listening and understanding each client’s unique story. I combine medication management with supportive therapy and lifestyle guidance to create a balanced, evidence-based treatment plan. My goal is to empower you to take an active role in your mental health, build resilience, and develop tools that promote long-term emotional wellness. Clients often describe my style as calm, understanding, and focused on helping them feel supported and heard.

During our first session, my goal is to create a safe, comfortable space where you can share what’s been going on without judgment or pressure. We’ll take time to talk about your concerns, goals, and any past treatment experiences to help me better understand your needs. I’ll explain what to expect from our work together and answer any questions you have about medication or therapy options. By the end of the session, we’ll develop an initial plan focused on helping you feel more balanced, supported, and confident in your next steps toward wellness.
