Michael Bonifacio, PMHNP-BC

Michael provides thoughtful, patient-centered psychiatric care with a focus on mood disorders, anxiety, and ADHD. His approach is holistic and grounded, integrating clinical expertise with an understanding of each person’s life experience, cultural background, and goals. With more than 25 years in healthcare, including decades at the bedside serving diverse Chicago communities, Michael brings clinical depth and a real-world perspective to his practice. As an immigrant, parent, and clinician, he understands the complexities of identity, transition, and resilience. He believes meaningful mental health care goes beyond symptom management. Treatment is individualized, medication is used with intention, and the broader context of a person’s life is considered. Michael strives to create a space where patients feel understood and respected while working collaboratively toward stability and well-being. Outside of work, he enjoys cooking, traveling, and practicing aikido.
