Book a therapist or psychiatrist in Flagstaff, AZ covered by United Healthcare

Hi, my name is Dan. I bring a deeply personal understanding to mental health care. Having witnessed family members and fellow veterans navigate their own struggles, I know firsthand how isolating and disorienting it can feel to need support. I approach every session with the patience, attentiveness, and genuine care I would offer someone I love — listening not just to your words, but to what you're truly trying to communicate. My commitment is to always be as honest with you as possible, because I believe real help requires real honesty. When I'm not working, I enjoy reading and spending time outdoors.

I am a master's level mental health therapist dedicated to helping clients overcome PTSD, anxiety, depression, eating disorders, and grief. Recognizing that we all experience trauma, I specialize in helping individuals process their past, manage dissociation, and learn vital coping skills. Having navigated my own healing journey, I deeply understand the profound benefits of therapy. My ultimate focus is on your holistic wellbeing, guiding you to decrease symptoms, increase self-awareness, and learn to truly enjoy life again.

With over 9 years of experience as a Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner, I have had the privilege of supporting individuals from childhood through older adulthood in navigating mental health challenges. I specialize in treating a wide range of conditions, including anxiety disorders, OCD, PTSD, mood disorders (such as Major Depressive Disorder and Bipolar Disorder), psychosis, ADHD, ASD, and substance use disorders, including opioid and alcohol use disorder.

I bring a unique perspective to my practice as a Foreign Educated Physician and Pharmacist, which enhances my ability to provide thoughtful, holistic care. My approach is rooted in the biopsychosocial model, emphasizing patient-centered strategies that consider your mind, body, and environment.

I firmly believe in the possibility of recovery. Many of my clients are inspired to discover that, with adherence to an individualized treatment plan, meaningful progress and improved quality of life are achievable.

My goal is to create a safe, supportive space where you feel understood, empowered, and guided toward the mental wellness you deserve.

Hi, I’m Nicole! Therapy with me is about real conversations, practical tools, and accountability. Clients often tell me they appreciate that I’m down-to-earth, supportive, and won’t let them slide. I bring a diverse background of both life and professional experience, allowing me to see multiple perspectives and help you navigate complex relationship dynamics. Please note, we aren’t offering couples’ sessions at this time.

Finding the right support can feel overwhelming, and I want you to feel comfortable from our very first conversation. I work with people managing anxiety, depression, and addiction, and I take time to understand what's really going on in your life before we talk about any plan. Every person's story is different, so I listen closely and build care around your goals, not a one size fits all checklist. You can expect a space where your questions are welcome and your pace is respected. My hope is that our work together helps you feel more like yourself again, with steps you can actually use.

I am a non judgmental, calm, fun therapist that wants to get to know you. I am a safe person to talk to. I have an LCSW and I earned my Masters Degree in Social Work and Gerontology at Loma Linda University in 2014. I also have a play therapy certificate from Capella and have worked with all ages and many diversities.

Appointments are typically available within 2–5 business days for adults throughout Arizona with Medicare, Aetna, UnitedHealthcare, Cigna, and Blue Cross Blue Shield insurance. Through secure telehealth visits, I help patients struggling with ADHD, anxiety, depression, PTSD, and related concerns. Many of my patients come to Renewal Mental Health seeking clarity, symptom relief, and practical solutions after feeling overwhelmed, stuck, or unable to function at their best. Together, we develop personalized treatment plans focused on lasting improvement and helping you regain control of your daily life.
