Hi! I’m Camille. Thank you for being here. For more than 15 years, I’ve had the privilege of caring for individuals and families across many different healthcare settings—from emergency nursing and the COVID-19 pandemic response to travel and concierge nursing, Intensive Outpatient Programs (IOP), Partial Hospitalization Programs (PHP), and outpatient psychiatry. After years of living and working in major cities, including New York and Los Angeles, I eventually found my way to California’s Sierra Nevada foothills. My own experiences shape the way I connect with people. I’m a mother, a first-generation immigrant, part of a multicultural family, and a member of a rural mountain community. A meaningful part of my work is with high-achieving adults—professionals, executives, graduate students, entrepreneurs, healthcare workers, and others who may appear to be doing well by every external measure while privately feeling overwhelmed, disconnected, burned out, or simply not quite like themselves. I also understand the unique weight that can come with intergenerational expectations, cultural identity, and learning to navigate more than one world at once.

Happy patient looking away

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.

1 Cost may vary based on your location, age, and insurance coverage.
