Hi, I’m Kathryn, a board-certified psychiatric-mental health nurse practitioner providing virtual psychiatric evaluations and medication management across Arizona for adolescents ages 13–17, adults, and older adults. I work particularly with ADHD, anxiety, depression, medication concerns, and diagnostic clarification, along with OCD, sleep concerns, trauma-related symptoms, PTSD, panic symptoms, and mood disorders. Yarrow Behavioral Health is a solo practice, so you’ll work directly with me at every visit. I became a psychiatric-mental health nurse practitioner in 2026, following more than 14 years as a registered nurse. My experience includes inpatient psychiatry, psychiatric crisis care, medical-surgical nursing, and neurology. I offer telehealth appointments throughout Arizona on Tuesdays, Saturdays, and Sundays, from 5:00 AM to 7:00 PM Arizona time, with early-morning, evening, and weekend availability.

You deserve care that is thoughtful, evidence-based, and deeply personalized.

My approach is collaborative and holistic. I look beyond symptoms to understand the full picture of your life - including stressors, relationships, medical history, lifestyle, and personal goals. Whether you are seeking medication management, diagnostic clarity, or a more integrative approach to healing, we will create a plan tailored specifically to you.

Clients often describe my style as compassionate, thorough, and grounded. I believe in clear communication, shared decision-making, and ensuring you feel informed and empowered about your treatment options. My goal is not simply symptom reduction - it is helping you restore balance, confidence, and a meaningful quality of life.

If you are feeling overwhelmed, stuck, or unsure where to begin, you do not have to navigate it alone. Together, we will build a path toward emotional stability, mental clarity, and overall wellness.
