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.
Hi! I am Leslie Choi, a Dual-Board Certified Pediatric and Psychiatric Nurse Practitioner. I have been providing psychiatric treatment to individuals across the lifespan as Faculty in the Department of Psychiatry at the University of Colorado since 2020. I expanded my work over the last 2 years to serve in the high school setting as an educator and resource for substance use prevention and intervention, and mental health promotion for young people. I have been a nurse for 26 years, with a wide variety of experience including as a Navy nurse, an oncology nurse, inpatient and outpatient pediatric nurse.
I specialize in treating adolescents, First Responders, and individuals with trauma and stressor-related mental health concerns.
Looking for care that goes beyond a prescription? I'm Chelsea, a psychiatric nurse practitioner and owner of Thrive Psychiatry Colorado. In our work together, I will take time to listen and create a personalized plan that blends modern psychiatry with holistic care, always with curiosity, compassion, and a whole-person lens. I combine psychiatry with integrative wellness to support both mind and body. My journey began in yoga and doula work, and over the past 20 years I’ve also worked in nutrition, eating disorder treatment, community mental health, private practice and pediatric emergency medicine.

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 Colorado
Finding psychiatrists in Colorado starts with understanding what kind of care fits your needs. Psychiatrists and psychiatric mental health nurse practitioners can diagnose mental health conditions, prescribe medication, and manage medication over time. Therapists provide talk therapy and can also be an important part of care. If you are looking for support with anxiety, depression, ADHD, bipolar disorder, OCD, or medication management, review each psychiatrist’s listed specialties, training, and approach to see whether their experience matches what you want help with.
Psychiatry in Colorado can vary by location, from larger areas like Denver and Colorado Springs to communities near Fort Collins and other parts of the state. Some people prefer an in-person appointment close to home or work, while others choose virtual visits for more scheduling options. Psychiatric appointments for medication management 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 each psychiatrist communicates, what they focus on, and what to expect from a first appointment.
Psychiatric care in Colorado can be a significant expense without insurance. Using in-network coverage is one of the most reliable ways to reduce out-of-pocket costs and make ongoing care easier to plan for. Headway helps you find psychiatrists who are accepting new patients and match your insurance details, then shows your estimated session cost before you book. Nationally, Headway partners with 100+ insurance plans, so you can browse psychiatrists, review bios, and book directly when you are 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.
