Dr. Alyssa Nadolny
Psychiatric Mental Health NP
Virtual & in-person • 9.4 mi away • Greenwood Village, CO
I’m a psychiatric nurse practitioner who works from the belief that people are not broken—and that many of the struggles we call “mental illness” make sense when we look at trauma, context, and lived experience. I’m especially attuned to the ways mental health systems, stigma, and labels can unintentionally cause harm, and I aim to practice in a way that feels respectful, collaborative, and deeply human.
My approach is unconventional and trauma-informed, influenced by perspectives like those of Gabor Maté, which emphasize compassion, curiosity, and understanding symptoms as meaningful responses rather than defects. I do not believe in rushing to pathologize the human experience. As Joni Mitchell once reflected about depression, sometimes what we’re feeling is not an illness to be fixed, but a signal—an honest response to pain, loss, or a world that has not been kind.

Frequently asked questions


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 Denver
Finding psychiatrists in Denver starts with knowing which type of care fits your needs. Psychiatrists and psychiatric nurse practitioners can diagnose mental health conditions and prescribe medication, while therapists focus on talk therapy. Medication management may be part of care for concerns such as anxiety, depression, ADHD, bipolar disorder, or OCD. 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 approach match what you want support with.
Denver has many options across neighborhoods like LoDo, Capitol Hill, Cherry Creek, and beyond, which can make the search easier to start and harder to narrow. Consider whether an in-person office fits your commute, parking, or transit needs, or whether virtual appointments work better with your schedule. Psychiatry visits, especially medication management appointments, are often shorter and less frequent than therapy sessions. Some psychiatrists also offer therapy. Before booking, read each profile to understand appointment availability, communication style, areas of focus, and whether a free phone consultation is offered.
Psychiatric care in Denver 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 look for a psychiatrist by showing licensed psychiatrists and psychiatric nurse practitioners who are accepting new patients, match your preferences, and take your plan. You can enter your insurance details to see estimated out-of-pocket costs upfront, review bios, 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.
