Prenatal and postpartum therapists & psychiatrists in Peoria, AZ

Congratulations for taking this step toward improving your health! I've worked with Native Americans, Veterans, seniors, new moms, elderly folks, teens and adults. I work with creative people because I understand and respect your uniqueness. I have been a PMHNP for 15 years, and an RN for many more. I earned a BA from CUNY, a BS from NYU, and an MS in Nursing specializing in psychiatry, from SLU. I am a safe and experienced prescriber of medication, and will find the right fit for you.

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.

Welcome and congratulations on taking this step! I work with individuals who struggle with self-image, anxiety, depression, and self-motivation. I have been practicing for over 8 years. I will work with you to find your strengths and aid in building with you from there.

I believe mental and physical health are deeply connected, which is why I take a whole-

person approach to psychiatric care. As a dual-certified Family Nurse Practitioner and

Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner, I bring experience in both medical and

psychiatric care to understand the full picture behind what you’re experiencing. I provide

individualized care for anxiety, depression, ADHD, bipolar and other mood disorders,

PTSD and trauma-related conditions, OCD, panic disorder, insomnia, and other

psychiatric concerns. My medical background also allows me to consider how

hormones, thyroid function, medications, sleep, and other physical health factors may

contribute to changes in mood, anxiety, attention, and overall well-being. My goal is to

provide thoughtful, evidence-based treatment in a supportive, judgment-free

environment where you feel heard, understood, and actively involved in your care.

I have been a Mental Health Therapist for 32 years working with Children, Adolescents and Adults.

Hi. My name is Christine and I am a Licensed Professional Counselor. Originally from New Jersey, currently in the sunny state of Arizona. I attended Rutgers's University to obtain a Masters in Clinical Mental Health Counseling. Life can become challenging at times. My passion is helping people through their struggles and getting back to a better quality of life.

I am an open minded therapist who believes in the connection between the mind and the body. I provide a safe and nonjudgmental place to process the difficulties of life and relationships. If you’re struggling with anxiety, depression, trauma, neurodivergence, or postpartum/motherhood, don’t hesitate to reach out to begin your journey to healing

I bring a background as an educator, a parent, and a health and wellness coach.

I'm a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with over a decade of experience supporting women through ADHD, motherhood, anxiety, perfectionism, and burnout. My own lived experiences, along with my background as an OB medical social worker, shaped the way I show up as a therapist today.

I know what it's like to look like you have it all together while quietly feeling overwhelmed. My goal is to help you feel understood, stop blaming yourself, and build a life that works with your brain instead of against it.
