You deserve care that is thoughtful, evidence-based, and deeply personalized.
My approach is collaborative and holistic. I look beyond symptoms to understand the full picture of your life - including stressors, relationships, medical history, lifestyle, and personal goals. Whether you are seeking medication management, diagnostic clarity, or a more integrative approach to healing, we will create a plan tailored specifically to you.
Clients often describe my style as compassionate, thorough, and grounded. I believe in clear communication, shared decision-making, and ensuring you feel informed and empowered about your treatment options. My goal is not simply symptom reduction - it is helping you restore balance, confidence, and a meaningful quality of life.
If you are feeling overwhelmed, stuck, or unsure where to begin, you do not have to navigate it alone. Together, we will build a path toward emotional stability, mental clarity, and overall wellness.
With over two decades in Intensive care nursing, I am driven by a passion for helping people heal beyond symptom management. I provide compassionate, evidence-based psychiatric care with a whole-person, holistic approach to mental wellness. I work with adults experiencing anxiety, depression, mood disorders, ADHD, trauma, burnout, stress, and life transitions—with a special focus on women who are used to holding everything together while quietly feeling overwhelmed. I believe that true healing begins when the mind and body are supported in unison; together, I will support your growth from ordinary to Elevated!
What you should know about me as your provider is that I am genuinely curious about who you are, how you see the world, and what makes you, you. I don’t believe in one-size-fits-all templates, and I certainly don’t expect you to have it all figured out. When you sit down with me, your story is safe, your quirks are welcome, and you will always be met with acceptance and a listening ear. We are in this together, and I’m ready to listen whenever you're ready to share.
Hello! I’m Dr. Mary Daniels, DNP, PMHNP-BC, a Board-Certified Psychiatric Nurse Practitioner dedicated to providing compassionate and personalized mental health care. With a strong educational background in nursing, I specialize in helping individuals manage mental health conditions and achieve overall wellness. I’m excited to work with you and support your unique needs and goals.
I'm a board-certified psychiatrist specializing in child, adolescent, and adult mental health, and I'm passionate about helping people in the most effective, personalized way I can.
I believe good care starts with connection. While strong credentials matter, what matters most to me is truly listening and understanding what you're going through — then building a plan that fits your values and your goals. Care with me might involve prescribing, deprescribing, interventional treatment, therapy, or a thoughtful combination, always tailored to what will help you most.
My goal is to tailor every care plan to the patient and their life. I will begin by asking you about your goals and how you would like to measure our progress toward those goals. We will build a comprehensive plan around therapy, medications, exercise, diet/ nutrition and spirituality (whatever that means to you)...and all combinations of those components for what would be best for your path.
ADHD Evaluations & Treatment:
We also provide comprehensive, evidence-based care for ADHD. To ensure the highest standard of clinical safety and accuracy, all new ADHD evaluations require specialized Creyos neuropsychological testing. Please note there is a one-time $150 out-of-pocket fee for this assessment, which must be completed prior to the initiation of any controlled medication therapy. We look forward to partnering with you on your care!
I am a dual board-certified Psychiatric Nurse Practitioner and Family Nurse Practitioner committed to supporting your mental wellness. I help children, teens and adults struggling with anxiety, depression, mood disorders and ADHD.
I completed my training at Case Western Reserve University, and I went on to complete additional certification at the University of Texas Rio Grande Valley.
I aim to create a safe space where you feel heard and empowered. I would love to assist you on your path to growing, as we work together to achieve personalized, goals that promote positive outcomes.

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 Durango
Finding psychiatrists in Durango starts with knowing which type of mental health care fits your needs. Psychiatrists and psychiatric nurse practitioners can diagnose mental health conditions and prescribe medication, while therapists focus on talk therapy. Both can be valid starting points depending on what you need. If you are looking for support with anxiety, depression, attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder, bipolar disorder, obsessive-compulsive disorder, or medication management, look for a psychiatrist whose listed specialties and clinical background match your goals.
In a smaller city like Durango, local psychiatry options may be limited, and virtual appointments can expand the number of psychiatrists available to you. Medication management appointments are often shorter and less frequent than therapy sessions, so scheduling fit, appointment availability, and whether the psychiatrist is accepting new patients can matter as much as location. Some psychiatrists also offer therapy, and some people work with both a therapist and a prescriber. Reading each profile can help you understand a psychiatrist’s approach, areas of focus, and what to expect before you book.
Psychiatric care in Durango 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 match your needs, verify your insurance, see estimated out-of-pocket costs upfront, 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.
