Courtney Daniel

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.
