Psychiatric Mental Health NP

Virtual • Arizona


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.

Dr. Linda Wickens

Therapist

Virtual • Arizona


Hi, I’m Dr. Linda Wickens, a doctoral-level therapist and coach who works with individuals navigating stress, life transitions, relationship challenges, and patterns that keep them feeling stuck while preventing forward movement and growth. Many of my clients are high-functioning on the outside but feel overwhelmed, disconnected, or frustrated that change feels harder than it should.

Therapy and coaching with me are never one-size-fits-all. We work collaboratively to create a plan that is specific to you, your goals, and your capacity, adjusting pace and structure as your needs evolve. I focus on helping clients understand their patterns, build emotional awareness, and develop practical skills they can actually use in daily life.

I hold a Doctorate in Social Work and am a fully licensed clinical social worker, with over nine years of experience in the mental health field. My work integrates evidence-based therapy with a coaching-informed lens when appropriate, allowing sessions to be both supportive and goal-oriented while still making space to explore the past and its impact on the present.

Clients often describe my style as warm, direct, and collaborative. As part of my concierge model, clients work directly with me rather than an assistant, and I remain accessible to my clients outside of sessions through secure communication when needed. I believe growth happens through understanding, compassion, and honest conversation, and that progress is most sustainable when care feels personal, intentional, and consistent.

Please Note: I do not provide couples or marriage counseling. I do not treat adolescents under the age of 21. Additionally, I am not able to treat clients who are experiencing active suicidal ideation or self-harm behaviors. If these services are needed, I encourage seeking a provider who specializes in these areas or contacting appropriate crisis resources if immediate support is required.

Carly Reina

Psychiatric Mental Health NP

Virtual • Phoenix, AZ


My name is Carly Reina, and I am a Psychiatric Nurse Practitioner with a Master of Science in Nursing from Walden University. I provide mental health care across the full lifespan — from children, adolescents, adults, and seniors — and I take pride in the breadth and depth of experience that allows me to serve individuals and families at every stage of life.

My primary clinical focus areas include relationships, sleep disorders, ADD/ADHD, anxiety, and depression. I also work with clients navigating bipolar disorder, PTSD, trauma, panic disorders, chronic conditions, OCD, stress, and family concerns.

My work with children, adolescents, and young adults is particularly meaningful to me. Early childhood is one of the most critical and often underserved periods for mental health — and having a provider who understands the unique developmental, relational, and behavioral landscape of these early years can make a profound difference for both children and their families.

Whatever stage of life you or your loved one is in, I am here to provide thoughtful, individualized care.
