Angelia Sarten, RN, BSN, Office Manager
I have been in healthcare since 1982, serving a variety of populations and in many different states. I have been a registered nurse since 2005 and obtained my BSN in 2013. I am currently working on my MSN in family practice with an emphasis on peds psychiatry. I have experience dealing with disorders such as autism, bipolar, schizophrenia, anger, depression, and anxiety. I also have five years of experience working as an inpatient registered nurse with the veteran population.
My philosophy is to strengthen the structure of self, empower others to become their best, to always speak the truth, to share wisdom, and to show absolute courage. This takes a willingness to learn and mindful growth in order to reach your goals. It is my passion to provide structure to your care, which develops a therapeutic cohesiveness between you and our providers. In turn, this provides you with the self-reliance to carry you through what life offers, good or bad.
About Us
Our Practice
Michael Sarten, Psychiatric Nurse Practitioner
I have been working in Mental Health since 2011, first as an inpatient psychiatric RN and now as a psychiatric nurse practitioner. I have practiced as a nurse practitioner in VA hospitals as a psychiatric consultation liaison and at VA community-based outpatient clinics. Currently, I am working in community mental health, mostly working with clients on Medicaid.
As my humble experience suggests, I respect and enjoy working with clients from all walks of life. My goal is to work with you so you feel your best on the fewest medications possible and at the lowest doses.
Working together and with the right combination of medications, we will improve your mood, energy, self esteem, confidence, and resilience.

Referrals for Therapy
A Happier, Healthier You
Acorn BHS highly encourages our clients to augment medication with therapy. Studies show that behavioral and emotional modifications work as well, if not better, than medication to treat anxiety, depression, and other mental health issues. Therapy teaches you healthy coping techniques to improve your success when stressful issues pop up.
We have a variety of excellent therapists we refer our patients to, including individual, family, and couples therapists.
