Nice to meet you!

If you’ve been dealing with depression, anxiety, panic, sleep problems, or mood swings, you may feel worn down, stuck, or unsure what to try next. You want relief, but also clear answers, practical options, and someone who takes your concerns seriously. I work with young adults, adults, and seniors who are ready to better understand what’s happening and take steady steps toward feeling more balanced and in control of their mental health.

Rhonda Brun

Psychiatric Mental Health NP

Virtual • Scottsdale, AZ


At Beautiful Mind Psychiatry, I help adolescents and adults with ADHD, anxiety, depression, and mood disorders through psychiatric evaluation, personalized medication management, and integrative lifestyle strategies.

Before becoming a psychiatric NP, I spent over 25 years working as a registered nurse across acute care, home health, and other settings — experience that shaped how I approach patients today: with patience, attentiveness, and an appreciation for how physical and mental health are intertwined. I also spent two years working at The Meadows, where I learned firsthand how trauma symptoms can overlap with and mimic other mental health conditions, and how essential it is to understand root causes before settling on a diagnosis. I bring that same lens to every evaluation.

I also have personal, lived experience with late-diagnosis ADHD, and I understand firsthand how far-reaching its effects can be — on work, relationships, self-esteem, and daily functioning. That perspective shapes how I listen and how I treat.
