Appiia Health's clinical team includes licensed Physician Assistants, Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioners, Licensed Clinical Social Workers, and a board-certified Medical Director including a physician board-certified in sleep medicine who provides physician oversight and clinical governance.
Appiia Health was founded with one core belief: that every person seeking mental health support deserves a provider who truly knows them. We saw a growing gap between access and quality - between showing up for an appointment and actually feeling cared for. We knew there was a better way to practice. Today, Appiia Health is a small, intentional team of licensed clinicians committed to unhurried, relationship-centered care. We don't overbook. We don't rush. We treat every patient as a whole person, not a set of symptoms to manage. We call ourselves The Mind Mentor - because real mental health support is about guidance, relationship, and showing up consistently for the people who trust us with their care.
We watched the telehealth industry grow rapidly after COVID-19 — and while it brought mental healthcare to millions who needed it, something got lost along the way. The listening. The relationship. The feeling that your provider actually knows who you are.
Appiia Health exists to bring that back.
We’re a small, intentional team of licensed clinicians who believe that the best care happens when providers have the time and space to truly understand their patients. We don’t rush sessions. We don’t overbook schedules. We don’t treat mental health like a transaction.
We call ourselves The Mind Mentor — because we believe in guidance over authority, support over prescription-first, and relationship over transaction. That’s not a marketing line. It’s how we practice.
Founder & Chief Operating Officer
Tonya built Appiia Health from the ground up with a vision for what telehealth mental healthcare could be when it’s done with intention. With a background in healthcare operations and a deep commitment to accessible, quality care, she assembled a team of clinicians who share her belief that every patient deserves to be heard — not processed.
