Hi, I’m Bianca Mitchell, a board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner with over 14 years of nursing experience and specialized training in diagnosing and treating anxiety, depression, mood disorders, and trauma-related conditions in adolescents and adults.

I provide thoughtful, evidence-based medication management with a collaborative approach. I believe treatment works best when you feel heard, respected, and actively involved in your care. Whether you're navigating stress, life transitions, focus challenges, or long-standing mental health concerns, my goal is to create a safe and supportive space where we can work together toward stability and growth.

I have extensive experience in telepsychiatry and high-volume clinical settings, which has strengthened my ability to quickly identify patterns, tailor treatment plans, and provide efficient, compassionate care. I also incorporate elements of supportive therapy and cognitive-behavioral strategies during visits when appropriate.

My approach is direct, structured, and patient-centered. I value clarity, accountability, and open communication. If you're ready to take the next step toward feeling better and functioning at your best, I look forward to working with you.

Giovanna Skylar

Psychiatric Mental Health NP

Virtual • Albuquerque, NM


I am a double board-certified Psychiatric–Mental Health Nurse Practitioner with over 20 years of experience across the continuum of psychiatric care, including acute psychiatric emergencies, inpatient and outpatient psychiatry, geriatric mental health, intellectual and developmental disability services, and healthcare management. I hold a Master of Science in Nursing (MSN) and am currently completing my Doctorate, reflecting my ongoing commitment to clinical excellence, evidence-based practice, and lifelong learning.

Throughout my career, I have worked with individuals and families navigating a wide range of psychiatric conditions, from situational anxiety and depression to severe and persistent mental illness. My clinical experience includes extensive work with schizophrenia and psychotic disorders, bipolar disorder, major depressive disorder, generalized anxiety disorder, panic disorder, obsessive–compulsive disorder (OCD), trauma-related conditions, and mood instability across the lifespan. I am particularly experienced in caring for geriatric patients, individuals with intellectual and developmental disabilities, and patients with complex medication regimens requiring careful evaluation, simplification, and long-term stabilization.

I also work closely with college-aged patients and adults who are navigating academic pressure, career transitions, family dynamics, identity development, and the cumulative stressors that can emerge during periods of high responsibility or change. Many of my patients are high-functioning individuals who appear “put together” on the outside but struggle internally with anxiety, rumination, intrusive thoughts, emotional dysregulation, or burnout. Others are managing chronic psychiatric illness while striving to maintain independence, relationships, and quality of life.

Happy patient looking away

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 Psychiatrist in Las Cruces

Finding psychiatrists in Las Cruces starts with knowing which type of mental health care fits your needs. Psychiatrists and psychiatric mental health nurse practitioners can diagnose mental health conditions, prescribe medication, and manage psychiatric care. Therapists provide talk therapy and support through other forms of care. If you are looking for care related to anxiety, depression, attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder, bipolar disorder, or obsessive-compulsive disorder, review each psychiatrist’s listed specialties, credentials, and approach to medication management.

Las Cruces has a smaller local mental health care market than major metro areas, so virtual appointments can expand your options beyond offices near Mesilla, Organ, and nearby communities. Psychiatric care also tends to follow a different schedule than therapy. Medication management appointments are often shorter and may happen less often than weekly therapy sessions. Some psychiatrists also offer therapy, and some people work with both a therapist and a prescriber. As you compare options, look at appointment availability, whether a psychiatrist offers virtual or in-person care, and what their bio says about communication style and areas of focus.

Psychiatric care in Las Cruces 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 you book. Headway helps you search for psychiatrists who match your needs, accepts a wide range of insurance plans nationally, and shows estimated out-of-pocket costs after your benefits are verified. Every psychiatrist listed is accepting new patients, so you can review bios, compare availability, 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.
