Cass Moores Kristensen

Cass Moores Kristensen

Psychiatric Mental Health NP

Virtual • Arizona


I work with teenagers and adults navigating anxiety, depression, trauma, and body-related concerns. I believe that mental health is deeply connected to the body, and that lasting healing happens when we care for both. My approach is compassionate, collaborative, and integrative, recognizing that each person's experiences, strengths, and goals are unique.

Living with my own long-term health challenges has shaped the way I practice. It has strengthened my belief that our emotional and physical well-being are inseparable and has deepened my commitment to helping others find meaningful, sustainable paths toward healing.

I strive to create a safe, inclusive, and affirming space where you feel heard, respected, and empowered. I welcome people of all genders, identities, backgrounds, and lived experiences, and I tailor treatment to meet your individual needs and values.

I am a Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner and Family Nurse Practitioner with a background in Anthropology, which informs my appreciation for the biological, psychological, social, and cultural factors that influence mental health. I completed a fellowship in Integrative Reproductive Mental Healthcare and am currently pursuing advanced fellowship training in Nutritional Psychiatry and Ketamine-Assisted Therapy. I have also trained in gender-affirming care and am committed to providing evidence-based, inclusive care that honors each person's unique journey.

Giovanna Skylar

Giovanna Skylar

Psychiatric Mental Health NP

Virtual • Scottsdale, AZ


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.

Psychiatric Mental Health NP

Virtual • Arizona


Hi here, it's nice to meet you! I'm Dr. Faught, a Doctor of Nursing Practice with over 50 years of healthcare experience. From an early age, I carried the rare gift of deep empathy and feeling the emotions of others. Strangers would approach me, compelled to share their story and their pain, trusting they would be heard without judgment. My travels across cultures sharpened this gift. I witnessed injustice and inequity impacting many lives thus strengthening my resolve to create meaningful change. I bring both skill and heart to every conversation and person.

I bring warmth and genuine curiosity to every session. My work centers on helping people navigate anxiety, depression, and the lasting effects of trauma — and I believe that healing happens best when you feel truly heard. I take time to understand what matters most to you before we ever talk about a treatment plan, because good care has to fit your life, not just your diagnosis. My approach is collaborative: we figure things out together. I want you to leave each session feeling more capable, not more dependent on me. If you are ready to feel like yourself again, I am here to help you get there.
