About Dr. Julie Schreiner

DNP, PMHNP, FNP

Dr. Julie Schreiner believes that real healing begins with feeling truly heard. Her approach is warm, holistic, and deeply collaborative — meeting each patient where they are, whether that's navigating ADHD, anxiety, depression, eating disorders, or trauma.

She brings this same care to every age group, from children to adults, blending psychiatric expertise with a whole-person perspective that honors both mind and body.

With over 15 years of experience across psychiatry, pediatrics, and integrative wellness — and a Doctor of Nursing Practice from Duke University — Dr. Schreiner has the depth of knowledge to back the compassion she leads with. She is board-certified as both a Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner (PMHNP) and a Family Nurse Practitioner (FNP).

At This Bountiful Life, Dr. Schreiner’s mission is simple: to create a safe, nurturing space where clients and their families can explore healing, build resilience, and step into a more fulfilling life.

This Bountiful Life

An Integrative Psychiatry and Wellness Practice

This Bountiful Life was born from over a decade of experience within the traditional medical system, where Dr. Julie Schreiner recognized a critical gap in mental health care delivery. Founded to break down those barriers, This Bountiful Life reimagines what compassionate, accessible care can look like.

From ADHD evaluations and anxiety treatment for children to eating disorder psychiatry and beyond, we offer comprehensive care for individuals of all ages — with the flexibility of telehealth psychiatry serving California families wherever they are.

This Bountiful Life’s vision is simple yet profound: to create a space where clients and their families feel seen, supported, and empowered — reconnecting mind and body, fostering resilience, and cultivating a true sense of belonging.

What Is a Collaborating Physician?

A collaborating physician is a licensed medical doctor who works in professional partnership with a Nurse Practitioner (NP) to support safe, high-quality care. Collaboration does not mean direct supervision or day-to-day oversight. Instead, it involves ongoing communication, consultation when needed, and shared commitment to best clinical practices.

The NP remains fully responsible for patient care within their scope of practice, while the collaborating physician is available for clinical discussion, chart review, and complex case consultation as required by state regulations.

This is more than a psychiatric practice. It's a space to feel grounded, supported, and to rediscover the bountiful life within.
