Prenatal and postpartum therapists & psychiatrists in Tempe, AZ

With a nursing career spanning since 2008, I have dedicated over 15 years to understanding the complexities of patient care. After earning my Master’s Degree in 2021, I transitioned into advanced psychiatric practice in 2022. Having served in both fast-paced inpatient units and collaborative outpatient clinics, I offer a well-rounded perspective on mental health. My background allows me to blend clinical expertise with a deeply rooted compassion for the human experience.

I am a board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner with extensive experience across inpatient psychiatry, crisis stabilization, substance use treatment, residential care, intensive outpatient programs, and outpatient medication management. My background has given me the opportunity to work with individuals facing depression, anxiety, bipolar disorder, PTSD, ADHD, substance use concerns, mood instability, sleep problems, and life transitions.

Clients often describe my style as calm, direct, supportive, and easy to talk to. I believe mental health care should feel collaborative, respectful, and practical. My goal is to help clients better understand what they are experiencing, explore treatment options, and build a plan that supports real improvement in daily life.

I have a strong interest in treatment-resistant depression, interventional psychiatry, and evidence-based medication management, while also recognizing that each person’s story, goals, and values matter just as much as symptoms or diagnoses.

With 165+ reviews and a 4.96 rating on Zocdoc, I have specialized in advanced medication management for complex, treatment-resistant conditions. I utilize a neurobiological approach that focuses on frontal lobe/executive functioning, nervous system dysregulation, and neurotransmitter systems to diagnose and treat various concerns - ADHD/executive dysfunction, OCD, trauma/C-PTSD, high-masking autism, personality profiles, and cases where standard medication treatments have failed. While I specialize in clinical complexity, I bring that same deep, careful attention to treating anxiety, depression, and clients starting medication for the first time.

My name is Jessica Harrison. I am a doctoral prepared, dual-certified Family and Psychiatric Nurse Practitioner.

I have an extensive medical background that includes primary care, urgent care, internal medicine and hospital medicine. My psychiatric experience includes substance abuse, eating disorders, crisis stabilization, and outpatient services caring for individuals with depression, anxiety disorders, PTSD, women's mental health, and bipolar disorder II.

I am a board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner (PMHNP-BC) with over 10 years of experience in the mental health field. Throughout my career, I have worked in both inpatient hospital and outpatient settings, caring for individuals with a wide range of mental health conditions across the lifespan.

My passion is women's mental health. I specialize in supporting women through the unique emotional and psychological challenges that can occur during different stages of life, including postpartum, premenstrual dysphoric disorder (PMDD), infertility, menopause, anxiety, depression, and trauma. My goal is to help close the gap in women's mental health care by providing compassionate, evidence-based treatment that empowers women to better understand their mental health and take an active role in their well-being.

Hi, I’m Nicole! Therapy with me is about real conversations, practical tools, and accountability. Clients often tell me they appreciate that I’m down-to-earth, supportive, and won’t let them slide. I bring a diverse background of both life and professional experience, allowing me to see multiple perspectives and help you navigate complex relationship dynamics.

Outside of my work as a therapist, I enjoy spending time outdoors, riding my horses, and being with my family. These activities help me stay grounded and connected to what matters most in life. I value balance, authenticity, and meaningful relationships, and I bring those same values into my work with clients. I strive to create a welcoming, supportive environment where clients feel comfortable being themselves and working toward their goals.

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’m a Licensed Professional Counselor based in Arizona, specializing in trauma, attachment, substance use, and psychedelic integration. I hold a Master’s in Clinical Psychology and am currently completing my PhD in Transpersonal Psychology, where my research focuses on inner healing intelligence, somatic integration, and transformation through altered states of consciousness.

My approach is both grounded and deeply experiential. I integrate somatic therapy, parts work, mindfulness, and attachment-focused interventions to help clients move beyond insight and into real, embodied change. I believe that healing doesn’t come from fixing what’s “wrong,” but from reconnecting with the innate intelligence within you that already knows how to heal.

I work well with clients who feel stuck in patterns they can’t think their way out of—whether that’s anxiety, depression, trauma, relationship struggles, or cycles of substance use. Many of my clients are high-functioning but internally overwhelmed, disconnected, or carrying unresolved emotional pain. Together, we create a space that is honest, supportive, and sometimes challenging—in the service of real growth.

I also specialize in integration work for individuals exploring or recovering from psychedelic experiences. I help clients make meaning of these experiences and translate insights into sustainable, grounded change in their daily lives.

In our work together, you can expect a balance of compassion and accountability. I’ll meet you where you are, but I’ll also help you move forward. My goal is to support you in building a life that feels aligned, regulated, and genuinely yours—not just one that looks okay on the outside.

My name is Benjamin. With over 25 years of experience, I help individuals and couples build stronger, more fulfilling relationships and improve emotional well-being. I work with adults, couples, and families navigating anxiety, depression, PTSD, and other life challenges.

My approach is personalized, collaborative, and focused on meaningful, lasting growth. I help clients better understand their emotions, strengthen connections, and develop practical tools for everyday life.

Therapy with me is real, down-to-earth, and engaging—I bring honesty, humor, and compassion to create a space where you can grow, heal, and be yourself. Book with me here or at https://evolvetothrive9.com.
