My own path to becoming a psychiatric nurse practitioner began over 20 years ago in healthcare—as a certified nursing assistant, then as a U.S. Army–trained licensed practical nurse (LPN), and later as a registered nurse (RN). Along the way, I’ve worked in many different settings, from inpatient psychiatry and eating disorder treatment to hospice, school nursing, and dementia behavioral care. These experiences have shaped my understanding of how interconnected our physical, emotional, and social well-being truly are.
I’m passionate about helping people find clarity, resilience, and balance in their lives. Whether we’re working together to manage anxiety, depression, trauma, or other mental health challenges, my approach is collaborative and individualized—focused on finding what works best for you.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Psychiatrist 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.
