Sherri Crespin

Sherri Crespin

Psychiatric Mental Health NP

Virtual • San Diego, CA


Hello, my name is Sherri Crespin, a board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner passionate about providing integrated care for complex mental health challenges, including personality disorders, PTSD and trauma, substance use disorders, ADHD, depression, anxiety, panic disorders, mood disorders, and bipolar conditions. My practice recognizes these conditions are interconnected in ways requiring specialized understanding.

I chose these specializations because I understand how trauma influences personality development, how ADHD complicates substance use recovery, how symptoms emerge during extreme stress, and how these complex interactions require providers who see the complete picture. Whether you're in recovery while managing other conditions, dealing with personality patterns that developed as survival mechanisms, or navigating multiple diagnoses, I bring the expertise needed for comprehensive care.

My approach emphasizes evidence-based treatments and the healing power of being truly understood. I recognize that seeking help for stigmatized conditions like personality disorders takes tremendous courage, especially after negative experiences with providers. I create a therapeutic space where you can explore your experiences without judgment or shame.

You can expect a thorough assessment, personalized treatment planning, and consistent support throughout our work together. My goal is to help you build resilience, develop effective coping strategies, and thrive in your daily life.

Intake forms are required before your first appointment. You can text us your info or email us at [email protected]. Please send us a picture of your insurance information and photo ID!

Find the right psychiatrist for you

Headway makes it easy to find support for your mental health — from finding the right provider, to understanding costs, to scheduling with ease.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Therapist in Elk Grove

Finding the right psychiatrist in Elk Grove starts with understanding what kind of care you need. Psychiatrists are medical doctors who can diagnose mental health conditions, prescribe medication, and in some cases provide talk therapy. If you're looking for help with anxiety, depression, ADHD, bipolar disorder, or ongoing medication management, a psychiatrist may be the right fit. Psychiatric nurse practitioners can also evaluate, diagnose, and manage medication — and are another provider type available through Headway.

Elk Grove is part of the greater Sacramento metro area, and many residents in neighborhoods like Laguna, Sheldon, and East Franklin may find that virtual appointments expand their options beyond what's available locally. Whether you prefer in-person visits or virtual sessions, reading a provider's bio can help you understand their approach, specialties, and what to expect before you book.

Psychiatry sessions can be expensive without insurance. Using your in-network benefits is one of the most reliable ways to lower your out-of-pocket costs — and many patients pay as low as $0 per visit. On Headway, you can enter your insurance details to see estimated session costs upfront before booking. Nationally, Headway partners with over 100 insurance plans, making it easier to find a psychiatrist in Elk Grove who is both the right clinical fit and covered by your plan.
