OUR PHILOSOPHY

L’Esprit [lay-spree]:

noun

  1. a French term that translates to "the spirit" or "the mind". It refers to the essence or the intellectual and emotional aspect of a person.

  2. L’Esprit Psychiatry & Wellness is a dedicated space created to support and uplift women on their journey towards optimal mental well-being using a holistic and integrative approach. We understand the unique challenges and experiences that women face throughout their lives, from the pressures of modern-day expectations to the intricate complexities of relationships, motherhood, and self-identity.

  3. We are a psychiatric nurse practitioner and psychiatrist team based in California specializing in women’s mental health, but also offering care to individuals with anxiety, depression, mood disorders, post-traumatic stress disorder, and more.

Our philosophy is based on the idea that each person is unique, with their own set of experiences, beliefs, and challenges. That's why I take the time to get to know each of my patients on a deep level, listening carefully to their concerns and working collaboratively to develop a personalized treatment plan.


MEET YOUR NURSE PRACTITIONER

Chau Le, MSN, PMHNP-BC, CEO

Hi! My name is Chau and I’m a psychiatric nurse practitioner. I have a special interest in helping women become the best version of themselves through mental and physical wellness.

As a psych NP, I bring a unique perspective to my practice, shaped by both my professional expertise and personal experiences. As a mother of an infant and toddler, I understand the incredible joys and challenges that come with raising a family. Having experienced postpartum depression myself, I recognize the complexities of balancing multiple roles and the impact it can have on your mental health.

I believe there are many paths to healing and recovery and that medication can be just one part of the equation. I incorporate evidence-based practices such as therapy, botanicals & supplements, sleep interventions, physical activity, mindfulness approaches, and more. Above all, I believe that every person has the right to compassionate, non-judgmental care that is tailored to their individual needs.

Let's embark on this journey together, honoring the complexities of women’s mental health and paving the way for healing and growth! If you are looking for a psychiatric nurse practitioner in California who takes an integrative, whole-person approach to mental health care, I would be honored to work with you.
