Getting to know Wendy Colocho
As a board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner (PMHNP), I am dedicated to providing compassionate, nonjudgmental, and evidence-based mental health care. I specialize in treating individuals living with depression, anxiety, ADHD, PTSD, and substance use disorders through a blend of psychotherapy and comprehensive medication management.
I earned my master’s degree with honors from Charles R. Drew University of Medicine and Science. In my practice, I combine integrative and holistic modalities to deliver transparent, patient-centered care. I am deeply committed to honoring each client's unique identity, values, and cultural beliefs, partnering with you to advocate for your well-being and support your journey toward lasting recovery.
In our first session together, here's what you can expect
In our first session, you can expect a thorough, collaborative, and patient-centered evaluation designed to understand your unique needs. We will discuss the current symptoms or challenges that prompted your visit and complete a comprehensive biopsychosocial assessment—exploring your medical history, lifestyle, and background to support a truly holistic approach to your care.
As part of my commitment to multimodal, evidence-based treatment, we will review any past or current medications to ensure safe, informed decisions moving forward. Together, we will establish clear goals and build a personalized treatment plan that may integrate medication management, psychotherapy, and holistic interventions tailored to your recovery.
The biggest strengths that I bring into our sessions
My greatest strength lies in delivering multimodal, integrative, and evidence-based care that treats the whole person, not just a diagnosis. By seamlessly blending medication management, psychotherapy, and holistic interventions, I create highly personalized treatment plans that foster true recovery for individuals facing depression, anxiety, PTSD, ADHD, and substance use disorders.

More information on payments and coverage
Payment is due after each session and will be charged with your card on file for any portion of patient responsibility. Receipts will be provided at the time of the charge. This typically takes place 2-4 weeks after the session, once your insurance has had a chance to process the claim. We try our best to verify eligibility, but it is ultimately your responsibility to check coverage and out-of-pocket costs for services. For out-of-network visits, you will be billed at the provider’s self-pay rate, and we can provide an invoice for you to submit to your insurance for potential out-of-network reimbursement based on your plan’s benefits.
