My name is Carly Reina, and I am a Psychiatric Nurse Practitioner with a Master of Science in Nursing from Walden University. I provide mental health care across the full lifespan — from children, adolescents, adults, and seniors — and I take pride in the breadth and depth of experience that allows me to serve individuals and families at every stage of life.
My primary clinical focus areas include relationships, sleep disorders, ADD/ADHD, anxiety, and depression. I also work with clients navigating bipolar disorder, PTSD, trauma, panic disorders, chronic conditions, OCD, stress, and family concerns.
My work with children, adolescents, and young adults is particularly meaningful to me. Early childhood is one of the most critical and often underserved periods for mental health — and having a provider who understands the unique developmental, relational, and behavioral landscape of these early years can make a profound difference for both children and their families.
Whatever stage of life you or your loved one is in, I am here to provide thoughtful, individualized care.
Hello! I'm Amanda Long, a board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner dedicated to serving families through compassionate, culturally sensitive mental health care. I earned my Master of Science in Nursing from Walden University and have been practicing as a PMHNP since 2019, with over a decade of nursing experience beginning in 2011. My educational foundation also includes a Bachelor of Arts from the University of Illinois in Springfield, which broadened my understanding of human behavior and community dynamics. My journey in mental health has taken me through diverse settings that have shaped my comprehensive approach to care. I've worked in psychiatric emergency services at a major hospital, 23-hour crisis stabilization units, outpatient clinics, correctional facilities, and forensic mental health centers, including fitness-to-stand-trial evaluations. This varied experience has equipped me to understand mental health from multiple perspectives and meet people wherever they are in their journey, whether they're facing an acute crisis or seeking ongoing support. I specialize in medication management for individuals across the lifespan—from children and adolescents to adults and older adults. My treatment areas include depression, anxiety, ADHD, bipolar disorder, trauma-related conditions, psychotic disorders, and other mental health concerns. I'm experienced in both telehealth and in-person care, making quality psychiatric services accessible and convenient for your lifestyle. What drives me is the belief that everyone deserves competent, caring mental health support that honors their unique background and circumstances. I'm committed to improving the communities I serve, one individual and family at a time, through evidence-based practice combined with genuine human connection. My approach centers on partnership and creating a safe environment for healing. I look forward to supporting you and your family's wellness journey.

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 Tempe
Finding the right psychiatrist in Tempe starts with knowing what kind of care you need. Psychiatrists can diagnose mental health conditions, prescribe medication, and manage psychiatric care over time. Psychiatric nurse practitioners can also diagnose conditions and prescribe medication. Therapists provide talk therapy and may work with you alongside a prescriber. If you are looking for support with anxiety, depression, ADHD, bipolar disorder, OCD, or medication management, look for a psychiatrist whose listed specialties and training match what you want to address.
Tempe has local options near areas like Mill Avenue, Arizona State University, and South Tempe, with more psychiatry choices across the Phoenix metro area. Virtual appointments can also expand your search if office location, commute, or schedule matters. Psychiatric visits for medication management are often shorter and less frequent than therapy sessions, though some psychiatrists also offer therapy. As you compare options, review appointment availability, whether the psychiatrist is accepting new patients, and each profile’s bio to understand their care style, session structure, and clinical focus.
Psychiatric care in Tempe can be a significant expense without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs and understand what you may pay before you book. Headway helps you search for psychiatrists and psychiatric nurse practitioners who are accepting new patients with your plan, verify your benefits, and see estimated costs upfront. You can browse profiles, compare availability, and book directly when you’re ready.
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.
