Vanessa Moe, DNP-PMHNP-BC | Psychiatric Nurse Practitioner in Arizona
Compassionate, Evidence-Based Online Psychiatry in Arizona
With over 20 years of experience in the mental healthcare field, I am a Board-Certified Family Psychiatric and Mental Health Nurse Practitioner (PMHNP-BC) dedicated to helping patients across Arizona achieve mental clarity and stability. My clinical journey began with a deep commitment to understanding the complexities of the human mind, leading me to earn my Doctor of Nursing Practice (DNP) from Arizona State University.
As an experienced nurse practitioner for mood disorders, depression, anxiety and ADHD in Arizona, I have served patients in both high-acuity hospital settings and supportive outpatient clinics. This background allows me to provide a grounded, comprehensive perspective on mental wellness, ensuring every patient receives the highest standard of telehealth mental health in AZ.
I provide expert care for children and adults navigating a wide range of mental health challenges.
- ADHD Care for Children & Adults: I specialize in supporting children with ADHD, as well as working or in-school adults who struggle with focus, executive function, and burnout.
- Mood & Anxiety Disorders: Evidence-based management for depression, generalized anxiety, and complex mood instability.
- Schizophrenia: I am a dedicated schizophrenia treatment specialist, providing consistent, specialized care for those living with thought disorders.
- Medical-Psychiatric Support: I offer a unique sub-specialty in mental health care for cancer patients and those managing the psychological impact of chronic health conditions.
Just a heads up—I’m in the Mountain Time Zone, which runs one hour ahead of Arizona until the fall. For example, if you see a 2:00 time slot available, that would be 1:00 Arizona time.
After battling addiction for 30 years, my own recovery journey inspired me to become a therapist. With 14 1/2 years of sobriety, I bring both personal insight and professional expertise to the work I do. While my initial focus was supporting individuals struggling with substance use and co-occurring disorders, my practice has since expanded to include helping clients navigate depression, anxiety, anger, ADHD, OCD, low self-esteem, boundary-setting, relationship challenges, codependency, and more.
I am deeply committed to walking alongside others on their path to healing, believing that with determination and the right support, meaningful change is always possible. My approach is rooted in empathy, connection, and ongoing growth—I continuously pursue education and training to stay current with the most effective practices in the field. Outside of my work, I enjoy mindfulness, exercise, spending time outdoors, and staying connected with family and friends. My passion for this work shines through in every client interaction, and I strive to be a source of hope, encouragement, and resilience for those I serve.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a LGBTQIA+ Therapist in Glendale
Finding LGBTQIA+ therapists in Glendale starts with choosing someone who offers identity-affirming care. You may want support related to gender identity, sexuality, family relationships, stress, anxiety, depression, or life changes. Look for a therapist whose profile lists experience with LGBTQIA+ populations, affirmative therapy, gender-diverse care, or World Professional Association for Transgender Health training. The right fit goes beyond credentials — a therapist’s bio can show how they talk about identity, respect, and what to expect in sessions.
In a mid-size city like Glendale, local options may give you a mix of in-person and virtual choices, while virtual therapy can expand access to LGBTQ affirming therapy in Glendale and nearby Arizona communities. As you compare therapists, consider appointment availability, whether they offer a free phone consultation, and whether their background or approach matches what you want from care. Provider profiles can also help you spot clear fit signals, such as experience with therapy for gender identity in Glendale, LGBTQ counseling, or support for queer and transgender people.
Therapy in Glendale can be a significant expense without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs, and Headway helps make that part clearer before you book. You can enter your insurance details to see estimated out-of-pocket costs, compare LGBTQ friendly therapists in Glendale, review bios, and book directly when you’re ready.
