Hello- I’m Diana Price, a doctoral-prepared, dual board-certified Family Nurse Practitioner and Psychiatric-Mental Health Nurse Practitioner. I bring extensive clinical experience in treating individuals across the lifespan, including those with complex trauma, co-occurring conditions, and persistent mental health challenges.

In my practice, I take a comprehensive, person-centered approach to care. I believe that true healing requires attention to the whole person—mind, body, and spirit. This means I look at all aspects of your well-being, not just your symptoms, to develop a holistic treatment plan tailored to your unique needs.

As a trauma survivor myself, I deeply understand the challenges of navigating mental and emotional health. This personal experience allows me to offer a high level of empathy and compassion in my work. My patients often share that one of my greatest strengths is my ability to listen without judgment and to offer a space where they feel truly heard. I am committed to creating a safe, respectful environment where you can feel supported and empowered in your healing journey.

I am a passionate Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner dedicated to helping preteens, adolescents, and young adults who are grappling with the complexities of mental health disorders, such as anxiety and depression. My clients are overwhelmed by their emotions, struggling to manage daily responsibilities, relationships, and academic pressures. They may feel sad, hopeless, or experience intense anxiety that interferes with their ability to function and thrive. I aim to provide a safe and non-judgmental space for my clients to navigate their emotional challenges, learn effective coping strategies and improve overall wellbeing,

I’m a Doctor of Nursing Practice–trained Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner with a career shaped by service, compassion, and a genuine love for helping people feel seen, supported, and capable of healing. Before becoming a PMHNP, I spent many years as a CNA and later earned my BSN from the University of the Incarnate Word in 2015 in San Antonio, TX. I worked bedside at University Hospital, transitioned to hospice in 2016, and later served in case management at UTHSCSA. In 2023, I began my DNP–PMHNP program, completing it while working full time at Clarity Child Guidance Center. On December 13th, 2025, I was officially granted the title of “Dr.”, became board certified as a Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner on February 9th, 2026, and finally obtained my APRN with the Texas Board of Nursing on March 12th, 2026!

My doctoral project focused on reducing seclusion rates for children and adolescents with autism spectrum disorder using evidence‐based, trauma‐informed interventions—an area close to my heart as a parent of a special‐needs child. I’m passionate about geriatric psychiatry and child & adolescent psychiatry, and I bring a calm, grounded, and collaborative style to treatment.

I also briefly served in the United States Air Force, an experience that strengthened my commitment to resilience, service, and advocacy. Today, I continue to advocate for women affected by domestic violence, helping them reclaim safety, confidence, and possibility.

On a personal note, I’m a mom of two boys, happily married for 11 years, and the proud owner of four dogs. Outside of work, you’ll usually find me drinking coffee, shopping for plants, collecting perfumes, baking, cooking, or spending time with family and friends. These parts of my life help me stay balanced, grounded, and connected—values I bring into every therapeutic relationship.

A client should know that I am reliable, respectful, and committed to their well-being.
