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.
