Bianca Chavez

Therapist

Virtual • Arizona


Hi, I’m Bianca Chavez, a Licensed Professional Counselor and founder of Untamed Rose Therapy. I have over 10 years of experience in community mental health, intensive outpatient therapy, and group practice. I currently provide virtual therapy for adults throughout Arizona.

I’ve had the opportunity to work with people from many different backgrounds and through a wide range of life experiences. I’ve worked with adults facing anxiety, relationship challenges, major life changes, and the everyday pressures that can make it difficult to feel like yourself. These experiences have shaped how I see therapy and the importance of meeting each person as an individual.

I’m also someone who believes therapy doesn’t have to be overly formal or intimidating. You don’t need to have everything figured out or know exactly where to start. Sometimes knowing that you want something to feel different is enough.

Sessions are available in English and Spanish.

Si te sientes más cómodo/a hablando en español, este puede ser un espacio para hablar de tu vida, tus experiencias y lo que necesitas con respeto por tu cultura, tus valores y tu historia.

I provide psychiatric care in a way that is warm, open-minded, and empowering. My goal is to create a space where you feel comfortable being honest about what is going on, whether you are dealing with anxiety, ADHD, stress, postpartum or maternal mental health concerns, depression, trauma, sleep issues, OCD, eating concerns, or women’s mental health challenges.

I know reaching out for support can feel overwhelming, especially when you are already carrying a lot. I work collaboratively with clients to help them better understand what they are experiencing, identify what is getting in the way, and build a plan that feels realistic, supportive, and aligned with their goals. I want clients to feel heard, respected, and actively involved in their care every step of the way.

Jennifer Eastman

Jennifer Eastman

Psychiatric Mental Health NP

Virtual • Scottsdale, AZ


Hi, I'm Jennifer Eastman, a Board-Certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner and Family Nurse Practitioner passionate about helping people through comprehensive medication management tailored to your unique needs. I'm currently pursuing my Doctorate in Nursing at Western University of Health Sciences, where I also completed my Master of Science in Nursing and post-graduate certifications in both Psychiatric Mental Health and Family Practice. This dual training gives me a holistic perspective on how mental health intersects with overall physical wellbeing. I bring over 20 years of healthcare experience to my practice, including years as a Registered Nurse in pediatrics and emergency care, where I became a Certified Emergency Nurse. My extensive work in clinical research as a Sub-Investigator in CNS clinical trials has kept me current on the latest evidence-based treatments and emerging medication options. I specialize in psychiatric medication management for adults and adolescents, treating ADHD, depression and mood disorders (including bipolar disorder), anxiety disorders, and personality disorders. I take time to understand your complete story—not just your symptoms—so we can develop a treatment plan that actually works for your life. My approach integrates both pharmacologic and non-pharmacologic interventions, and I carefully monitor treatment response to make adjustments as clinically indicated. I believe in trauma-informed, culturally competent care, creating a safe space where you feel heard and respected. I understand that starting or adjusting psychiatric medications can feel overwhelming, which is why I prioritize clear communication, patient education, and shared decision-making throughout your treatment. I don't just prescribe medication—I partner with you and collaborate with therapists, primary care providers, and other supports in your life to ensure comprehensive care for long-term stability and improved quality of life.

Holly Shannon

Psychiatric Mental Health NP

Virtual • Scottsdale, AZ


I'm Holly, a board-certified Psychiatric-Mental Health Nurse Practitioner with 23 years of clinical experience in psychiatric care and maternal-child health. This dual background has shaped how I see mental health: not as something separate from the rest of your life, but deeply woven into every transition, relationship, and challenge you face. My work taught me that women's mental health—especially during pregnancy, postpartum, and hormonal transitions—requires specialized understanding and individualized care.

I provide comprehensive psychiatric treatment for adults across a broad spectrum of conditions: perinatal mood and anxiety disorders, OCD, PTSD and trauma-related disorders, personality disorders, depression, anxiety, panic disorder, bipolar disorder, and schizophrenia spectrum conditions. I have particular expertise in women's mental health throughout the reproductive years, though I welcome anyone seeking compassionate, evidence-based care.

My approach is straightforward: effective treatment should fit your real life. I combine psychiatric interventions—including medication management when appropriate—with practical therapeutic strategies and lifestyle modifications that actually work for you. I'll help you understand what's happening, why it's happening, and what options make sense for your unique situation.

What matters most to me is seeing you as a whole person—not just a diagnosis. You have strengths, values, relationships, and goals that deserve attention alongside your symptoms. Whether you're managing a long-standing condition, processing trauma, navigating major life changes, or simply seeking better balance, you deserve a provider who recognizes your potential and partners with you toward sustainable wellness.
