***Practice is currently full, waitlist is open, contact directly***

With over 20 years in healthcare and working as a Family Nurse Practitioner, the desire to treat patients better as a “whole” combined with the COVID pandemic of 2020 nearly caused me to stop providing care entirely. Essentially, I was fed up with the medical care being offered to many. Instead of walking away from patient care, I chose a different path. My focus shifted to treating the mental health of the patients & families I have compassionately taken care of in the past,

Therapist

Virtual • Arizona


Greetings, I am Felicia Thomas, a licensed professional counselor (LPC) with the AZBBHE. I vow to offer a safe space for you to share, be, and feel seen. I am person-centered and usually say that I have a trauma lens. Meaning, often times we go through some hard stuff and may appear okay to the naked eye, but inside there's so much anxiety and depression. I goal to help you understand you, to normalize what you are experiencing, and to join you on a path to healing.

Courtney Daniel

Psychiatric Mental Health NP

Virtual • Arizona


Hello! My name is Courtney Daniel. I am a board certified psychiatric mental health nurse practitioner (PMHNP-BC). I graduated from Wilkes University with my Master's of Science in Psychiatric Mental Health Nursing. I also hold a Bachelor's of Science in Nursing and a Bachelor's of Science in Psychology.

I believe that healing looks different for everyone, and there is no one-size-fits-all approach. I believe in meeting you exactly where you are. I take a collaborative approach, which means we work through things together. Medication can be a helpful tool when it’s needed, but it’s not the only piece of the process. We’ll also focus on building and strengthening coping skills so you feel more confident day to day.

Above all, my goal is to create a space where you feel heard, respected, and accepted without judgment. Thank you for trusting me with your care.

I provide telehealth psychiatric services to people living in Arizona. I work with children ages 6 and up, adolescents, and adults. I specialize in treating mood disorders including depression, anxiety and bipolar, as well as ADHD, OCD, schizophrenia, PTSD, postpartum depression, and more.

I have found my own personal healing to be intimately connected to nature, and it is here that I believe that we can all begin to rediscover our intrinsic humanity and let go of those things that distract us from our higher selves. In my spare time, I work as an outdoor educator and manage my own private practice and guide Outdoor Retreats

I believe it is helpful and important to translate what is discussed in session and in telehealth meetings into lived experience and real change.

Psychiatric Mental Health NP

Virtual • Arizona


Dr. MacKenzie ia board certified Adult and Child psychiatric NP and trained therapist Graduated Cum Laud from Case Western Reserve University in 2012 practicing in Texas, Oregon and most recently in Arizona since 2013. Prior to this he spent 10+ years as a Psychiatric and Critical Care RN in the community and a prior 10+ years in the US Army; where he learned a lot about anxiety, depression, grief and trauma. "I lived it, and with help I recovered. Then I studied what I myself have gone through to help others".

"If you think about it, there is no actual health without good mental health, and I work to help my clients achieve both."

Using the tools of Psychology as well as Psychiatric medication management (if appropriate), you can feel much better, function much better at home, work, and when you find yourself in those uncomfortable times.


Almost every symptom or unwanted trait can improve and in many cases, resolve completely, but only if you give it a chance.
