Joshua Dieterman

Psychiatric Mental Health NP

Virtual • California


Hi there, I'm a board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner whose practice is rooted in one foundational belief: every person deserves compassionate, individualized mental health care — regardless of background, circumstance, or the barriers and challenges they've faced along the way.

I focus on the treatment of depression, anxiety, and life's traumas, with a particular dedication to individuals from underserved and marginalized communities who have historically faced systemic barriers to quality mental health care.

All care is grounded in evidence-based practice, blending the most current clinical research with individualized judgment and patient-centered values. As a lifelong learner, I actively pursue continuing education and emerging best practices in psychiatric care — because excellence in medicine requires ongoing growth, humility, and a willingness to be taught by both science and the patients who make this work meaningful.

I welcome patients of all backgrounds and identities, and I am honored to walk alongside each person on their journey toward healing, wholeness, and hope.

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 Fresno

Finding the right psychiatrist in Fresno starts with knowing which type of care fits your needs. Psychiatrists and psychiatric mental health nurse practitioners can diagnose mental health conditions, prescribe medication, and manage prescriptions over time. Therapists provide talk therapy and may work with you on concerns like anxiety, depression, ADHD, obsessive-compulsive disorder, or bipolar disorder. Some people start with a therapist, some start with a prescriber, and some work with both. As you compare options, look for a psychiatrist whose listed specialties, training, and experience match the care you’re seeking.

Fresno has mental health care options across areas like Downtown, Tower District, and nearby Clovis, with both in-person and virtual appointment formats. For psychiatric care, medication management visits are often shorter and less frequent than therapy sessions, so availability, appointment cadence, and scheduling flexibility matter. Some psychiatrists also offer therapy, while others focus on diagnosis and medication management. Reading bios before you book can help you understand each psychiatrist’s approach, communication style, and whether they offer a free phone consultation.

Psychiatric care in Fresno 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 care begins. Headway helps you search for psychiatrists who are accepting new patients, add your insurance details, see estimated costs upfront, and book directly when you’re ready. This makes it easier to compare psychiatrists in Fresno by fit, format, availability, and coverage.

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.
