Psychiatric Mental Health NP

Virtual & in-person

510 North Front Street, Wormleysburg, PA

I have more than 15 years of experience providing mental health care to children, adolescents, and adults across a variety of clinical settings, including inpatient, outpatient, and partial hospitalization programs. Throughout my career, I have been committed to delivering compassionate, evidence-based psychiatric care while fostering strong therapeutic relationships with my patients.

I earned my Bachelor of Science in Nursing (BSN) from York College of Pennsylvania in 2005, my Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner (PMHNP) degree from Drexel University in 2016, and my Doctor of Nursing Practice (DNP) from Missouri State University in 2025.

In addition to my clinical practice, I currently serve as the Director of the Nurse Practitioner Program at York College of Pennsylvania. In this role, I am dedicated to preparing the next generation of advanced practice nurses while continuing to provide high-quality patient care.

I am passionate about empowering patients through education and shared decision-making. By building meaningful rapport and taking the time to understand each individual's unique needs, I help children, adolescents, and adults explore personalized treatment options and make informed decisions about their mental health care

Leilani Attilio

Leilani Attilio

Psychiatric Mental Health NP

Virtual • Pennsylvania


My name is Leilani and I’m a dual-certified Family and Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner, and I believe feeling heard is just as important as any treatment plan. My background in both primary care and mental health, along with my experience as a military veteran and spouse, helps me understand how stress, health, and life experiences are often deeply intertwined. I work with adults facing anxiety, depression, trauma, and big life transitions, and I take time to listen before offering guidance. My goal is to create a calm, supportive space where we can talk things through together and move forward in a way that feels manageable and right for you.

Dr. Rachael Murphy

Psychiatrist

Virtual • Pennsylvania


PLEASE READ BEFORE BOOKING, thank you.

I am a board-certified Psychiatrist (medical doctor) providing virtual care throughout NY and PA. I taper medications. This means most of my patients want to safely reduce or ultimately stop taking psychiatric medications, and I guide them through that process safely and at their own pace. I include therapy in my 30-min follow up sessions, though do not offer weekly 1-hour therapy sessions. Many of my patients also work with a therapist.

Psychiatric Mental Health NP

Virtual • Bensalem, PA


Hi, I’m a Board Certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner. I graduated from Drexel University with my Master's degree in Nursing. I then completed my Post-Graduate Certificate in Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner. I have over twenty years of experience working in healthcare. Psych has always been my passion. My experiences encompass working with clients across the life span, including Child and Adolescents, Adult, and Geriatric patient populations. I’ve provided services to clients presenting with many psychiatric disorders, such as Anxiety, Depression, ADHD, Bipolar Disorder, and more. I’m in the belief that mental health wellbeing is a priority. Human beings are resilient. Holistic care is the key to promoting better patient outcomes. Therefore, I believe that with an evidence-based practice treatment plan consisting of psychotherapy and/or a combination of psychotherapy and medication management, one will be able to control their mental health.


I’m a very compassionate, caring, and empathetic person. I strive to provide holistic care and collaborate with my clients to develop a treatment plan that they are comfortable with.
