Getting to know John Christopher Eugenio
I am a board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner and Certified Case Manager (CCM) licensed in California, providing psychiatric evaluation, medication management, supportive psychotherapy, and care coordination for adults. I earned my Master of Science in Nursing with a specialization in Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner from Purdue University Global.
My clinical background includes psychiatric mental health, case management, emergency and acute care, and dialysis nursing. These experiences have shaped the way I approach mental health care, especially for patients whose emotional well-being is closely connected to chronic medical conditions, work, family responsibilities, and other life stressors.
I work with adults experiencing depression, anxiety, ADHD, trauma-related symptoms, sleep difficulties, and other mood or attention concerns. I also have a special interest in renal-informed psychiatric care for individuals living with chronic kidney disease or receiving dialysis.
My approach is collaborative, compassionate, and practical. I take time to understand the whole person—not just a diagnosis—and consider medical history, medications, daily functioning, relationships, stress, and personal goals when developing a treatment plan.
When medication is appropriate, I explain the options clearly so we can make decisions together. I also value coordination with therapists, primary care providers, nephrologists, and other members of the healthcare team when it can support better care.
Above all, I strive to provide a welcoming, respectful, and nonjudgmental space where patients feel heard, supported, and confident about the next steps in their treatment.
What should a new client know about working with you?
As a psychiatric mental health nurse practitioner, my goal is to provide thoughtful, personalized care that helps you understand what you’re experiencing and feel confident about your treatment plan. I work with adults experiencing anxiety, depression, ADHD, trauma-related symptoms, sleep difficulties, and mood or attention concerns.
1. Personalized Care
Every person’s experience is different. I take time to understand your symptoms, health history, challenges and goals so we can create a treatment plan that feels realistic and tailored to you.
2. Comprehensive Psychiatric Evaluation
Your first visit focuses on understanding the full picture—not just a diagnosis. We’ll review your mental health history, medications, sleep, lifestyle, medical conditions, and how your symptoms affect daily life.
3. Medication Management
If medication may be helpful, we’ll discuss options together, including expected benefits, possible side effects, and alternatives. Treatment decisions are collaborative and adjusted based on how you respond over time.
4. Supportive and Coordinated Care
Mental health is often connected to physical health, work, relationships, and life stress. When appropriate, I can coordinate with therapists, primary care providers, and other members of your healthcare team.
5. ADHD Evaluation
For adults with concerns about attention, organization, focus, or executive functioning, ADHD evaluation and treatment are available through secure telehealth across California.
6. Renal-Informed Care
If you have chronic kidney disease or receive dialysis, I consider how kidney health, medications, treatment schedules, and other medical needs may affect your mental health care. When appropriate, I can coordinate with your nephrology or dialysis team.
Appointments are available virtually throughout California, with limited in-person care in Los Angeles. My goal is to create a welcoming, nonjudgmental space where you feel heard, supported, and clear about your next steps.
What is your typical process for working with clients?
At Novascend Neurowellness, my process is designed to make psychiatric care feel clear, supportive, and personalized from the first visit. I work with adults experiencing concerns such as anxiety, depression, ADHD, trauma-related symptoms, sleep problems, and mood or attention difficulties. I also provide renal-informed psychiatric care for adults living with chronic kidney disease or receiving dialysis.
The first session is a comprehensive psychiatric evaluation. We review your current concerns, mental health and medical history, medications, sleep, stress, daily functioning, and previous treatments. I take time to understand how your symptoms are affecting your work, relationships, health, and everyday life.
Based on the evaluation, we develop a treatment plan together. Depending on your needs, this may include medication management, supportive therapeutic guidance, lifestyle recommendations, further assessment, or coordination with other members of your healthcare team.
If you are experiencing concerns with attention, focus, organization, or executive functioning, we can also explore whether ADHD may be contributing to your symptoms and discuss appropriate evaluation and treatment options.
For patients with chronic kidney disease or those receiving dialysis, I also consider kidney function, current medications, dialysis schedules, and other medical needs when developing a psychiatric treatment plan. When appropriate, I can coordinate with your nephrologist, dialysis team, primary care provider, or therapist.
Follow-up visits focus on how you are feeling, how treatment is working, any side effects or concerns, and whether adjustments are needed. My goal throughout the process is to provide clear guidance, answer your questions, and create a treatment plan that feels practical and manageable.
Appointments are available through secure telehealth across California, with limited in-person care in Los Angeles.

Out-of-pocket fees and assistance
Initial session: $320 for 60 minutes
Ongoing session: $200 for 30 minutes
- Files your insurance claim: You pay the session fee upfront and the provider files the claim for you, so you can get reimbursed directly without worrying about the paperwork
- Charges post-reimbursement amount: This provider will only charge you for the amount you pay after you get reimbursed from your insurance plan, so you don’t need to pay the session fee upfront
More information on payments and coverage
At Novascend Neurowellness, we aim to make insurance and payment information as clear and straightforward as possible.
Insurance Coverage
We accept select commercial insurance plans. Because participation may vary by plan and network, patients are encouraged to confirm their mental health benefits directly with their insurance carrier before the first visit.
When possible, insurance information is reviewed before your appointment. Please note that verification of benefits does not guarantee payment by your insurance company.
Depending on your plan, you may be responsible for a copay, coinsurance, deductible, or other out-of-pocket costs. Any patient responsibility is based on the terms of your individual insurance plan.
Payment
We accept major credit and debit cards, and secure payment options are available for your convenience. Payment for copays, deductibles, private-pay visits, or other patient-responsible balances may be collected at the time of service.
After your insurance processes a claim, you may be responsible for any remaining balance assigned by your plan.
Private-Pay Options
Private-pay appointments are also available for patients who do not have insurance coverage, prefer not to use insurance, or have a plan that is not currently accepted by the practice.
If you have questions about insurance participation, estimated costs, or payment before scheduling, please contact the practice so we can help clarify your options.
Insurance coverage and reimbursement are ultimately determined by your individual health plan.
