Hi here, it's nice to meet you! I'm Dr. Faught, a Doctor of Nursing Practice with over 50 years of healthcare experience. From an early age, I carried the rare gift of deep empathy and feeling the emotions of others. Strangers would approach me, compelled to share their story and their pain, trusting they would be heard without judgment. My travels across cultures sharpened this gift. I witnessed injustice and inequity impacting many lives thus strengthening my resolve to create meaningful change. I bring both skill and heart to every conversation and person.

I obtained my Master’s Degree from Walden University and has undergone advanced clinical training, equipping me to assess, diagnose, and treat a spectrum of psychiatric illnesses, as well as provide psychotherapy.
Taking the first step toward better mental health is an act of courage, and I am here to support you every step of the way. As a Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner, I am committed to providing compassionate, personalized care that honors your unique story, background, and lived experiences.
My approach is collaborative and patient-centered. I take the time to truly understand who you are — your strengths, your challenges, and your goals — so that together we can build a care plan that is meaningful and effective for your life. I believe that the therapeutic relationship is the foundation of good outcomes, and I am dedicated to creating a space where you feel safe, respected, and genuinely heard.
My name is Rudy, and I’m a Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner. I specialize in working with people experiencing social anxiety, depression, bipolar disorder, and ADHD.

Find the right psychiatrist for you
Headway makes it easy to find support for your mental health — from finding the right provider, to understanding costs, to scheduling with ease.
Factors to Consider When Choosing a Therapist in Arizona
Searching for psychiatrists in Arizona starts with understanding the type of care that fits your needs. Psychiatrists and psychiatric mental health nurse practitioners can diagnose mental health conditions, prescribe medication, and provide medication management. Therapists provide talk therapy and may work with a prescriber as part of your care. If you are looking for support with anxiety, depression, attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder, bipolar disorder, or obsessive-compulsive disorder, review each psychiatrist’s listed specialties, training, and care approach to see whether they match what you are looking for.
Across Arizona, the right fit may look different depending on where you live. People in Phoenix, Tucson, and Flagstaff may have different choices for in-person psychiatry, while virtual appointments can make it easier to find a psychiatrist who fits your schedule. Medication management visits are often shorter and less frequent than therapy sessions, and some psychiatrists also offer therapy. As you compare options, look at appointment availability, whether the psychiatrist is accepting new patients, and whether a free phone consultation is offered. Reading bios can help you understand how a psychiatrist communicates, what conditions they focus on, and what to expect before you book.
Psychiatric care in Arizona can be a significant expense without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs and get a clearer estimate before your first appointment. Headway helps you search for psychiatrists and psychiatric prescribers who are accepting new patients with your plan, check your benefits, and see estimated out-of-pocket costs before booking. Nationally, Headway partners with 100+ insurance plans, and you can check what coverage is available in Arizona on Headway before booking.
If you're already taking psychiatric medication and considering switching providers, talk to your current prescriber before changing or stopping any medication — most psychiatric medications shouldn't be stopped abruptly. Anyone experiencing thoughts of self-harm or in acute crisis should call 988 or go to the nearest emergency department rather than wait for an outpatient appointment.
