“The practice made sure I understood my insurance coverage prior to the appointment. I was seen within just a couple of days. Nick is fantastic, a great listener who cares about my goals. He spent enough time with me and got me what I needed! ”

“He made a really good first impression on me. He didn’t just ask the textbook questions and rush through. He was very knowledgeable and really seemed to get past the outer layer of things even on the first visit. I look forward to continuing to work with him.”

Getting to know Nickolas Falangas
I’m a trilingual (Spanish/English/Romanian) board-certified Psychiatric Nurse Practitioner with a creative, client-centered approach. I blend multi-modality therapy with medication management to support adults navigating trauma, anxiety, depression, and major life transitions. Before entering mental health, I worked as a global photojournalist, capturing stories across continents — a career that sharpened my empathy and deepened my understanding of the human experience. Mental health is personal for me. I lost my brother to untreated illness, and I carry that with me in how I show up for my clients. I don’t believe your life has to be defined by the past or your circumstances. My goal is to help you move forward.
What should a new client know about working with you?
My path into mental health care was shaped by personal experience and a decade spent documenting the human condition as an international photojournalist. From working in crisis units to helping clients heal from trauma, I approach psychiatry as both a science and an art.
I don’t believe in fast-food psychiatry. I practice a slow, thoughtful model that blends medication management with talk therapy, drawing from CBT, psychodynamic principles, and holistic approaches. Whether you're navigating anxiety, mood instability, trauma, or substance use, our sessions are tailored to your real life—not a generic checklist.
As a trilingual provider (English, Spanish, and Romanian), I’m deeply committed to cultural nuance and compassionate care. At its core, this work is about clarity—getting unstuck and moving forward. If you’re standing at a crossroads, I’d be honored to walk through it with you.
What is your typical process for working with clients?
I start by taking time to understand your full story—what’s been going on, what’s worked or hasn’t, and how everything fits together. From there, I develop a plan that includes both medication management and therapy. I don’t believe in just handing out prescriptions—I want to walk with you through the hard stuff and help you make sense of it.

I 100% recommend Nick to anyone who suffers with anxiety. I was going through a really difficult time with crippling
anxiety and helped helped me with relief. Not only that, he helped me discover that I had obstructive sleep apnea.

Nickolas incorporates both therapy and medication management... which is a much more holistic approach to psychiatry. I highly recommend and appreciate his expertise in this field.
