I am a board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner (PMHNP) providing compassionate, evidence-based care for adults. I earned my Master of Science in Nursing from the University of Toledo and have clinical experience in outpatient psychiatry, inpatient, and detox settings. I specialize in treating depression, anxiety, ADHD, PTSD, bipolar disorder, and other mood-related conditions, using a collaborative, patient-centered approach to support each client's individual goals.
I am an independent therapist who works to get you you where you need and want to be in life. Most know me by Frank. Frank has been in the field of behavioral health for more than 25 years. Beginning with Independent Living Skills Training for Traumatic Brain Injured Individuals, Frank took care of individuals that had a goal of independence. Frank continued on in the field with respite care and eventually graduated from Grand Canyon University Cum Laude and Alphi Chi Honor society. Frank’s counseling journey began with Group Therapy in co-occuring addictions and proceeded to Crisis work including Title 36 and Crisis Mobile Team. Frank has experience with inpatient therapy as well. Following Clinic work and IOP, Frank, continued his work as a Clinical Supervisor.
People come to therapy carrying all kinds of things. A teenager navigating identity and anxiety. An adult whose depression has become the background noise of daily life. An older adult sitting with grief, transition, and questions about meaning and purpose. I work across all of it — with teens, adults, and older adults — and I bring the same grounded, genuine investment to every person who walks through the door.
What I offer isn't just clinical range, though I have that. It's the perspective that comes from over a decade working across outpatient, intensive outpatient, and inpatient settings, serving as a clinical director, supervising clinicians toward licensure, and training the next generation of therapists at universities across Arizona. That kind of career doesn't just build skill. It builds a clinician who has seen enough to know that the most important thing in the room is never the framework — it's the relationship.
I'm an Arizona native, down-to-earth, and genuinely easy to be around. I value humor and believe lightheartedness has a real place in the therapy room — not as a way of avoiding the hard stuff, but as a reminder that healing doesn't have to feel relentlessly heavy. I work with people navigating trauma, anxiety, depression, borderline personality disorder, co-occurring conditions, and complex life transitions, and I meet all of it with warmth, steadiness, and real clinical depth.
What I'm ultimately working toward with every client is simple: a better relationship with yourself and the people around you. More clarity. More purpose. A life that feels more like yours. Whether you're just beginning to understand what you're carrying or you've been at this work for years, I'll help you build something from there.
Hi, I'm Kelly! Thanks for considering working with me. I specialize in trauma resolution and getting folks out of fight, flight, or freeze. I'm a licensed clinical social worker and I have a second Masters degree in Human Sexuality Education. I've worked in 3 internationally-renowned trauma and addiction facilities as an individual, group, and family therapist. I hope that my many years of experience will bring a great deal of value and healing to our sessions together.
Hello! I primarily use IFS and can help you reconnect and build relationships with all parts of yourself. I can offer you a pathway to your inner world and journey alongside you as we rediscover what was lost, returning to parts stranded in dark corners of the past with tenderness and compassion.
Even when we try to move forward, the effects of trauma can continue to influence how we feel and respond. Many of the people I work with have already tried to move ahead. They've talked about what happened, understood it intellectually, & still found themselves back in the same patterns, the same responses, the same exhaustion. If that sounds familiar, you're not failing at healing. You may only need a different kind of help. A significant part of what I do involves helping clients understand their own nervous system — why it responds the way it does, what it's been protecting, and how to work with it rather than against it. This isn't abstract. It's practical, specific, and often the missing piece for people who have done a lot of work but still feel stuck at a level they can't quite reach through insight alone.
I specialize in first responders and healthcare professionals who carry the particular weight of chronic crisis exposure — people who understand resilience professionally but are navigating what it costs them. I take the responsibility of trauma work seriously — more seriously, perhaps, than most. I stay current with research, I think carefully about the ethics of this work, and I pay close attention to where each client is in their healing journey before taking the next step.
That deliberateness isn't caution for its own sake. It's respect — for the complexity of trauma, for the courage it takes to address it, and for the person sitting across from me.
My presence in sessions is quiet and attentive. I notice things. I offer feedback and suggestions carefully .My approach adapts as you grow — attending to your history, your relationships, and the patterns that have formed around your experiences. We'll build emotional awareness, develop practical tools, and work toward something genuinely sustainable.
I'm Anissa, a Board Certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner specializing in the evaluation and treatment of ADHD and other co-existing conditions.
When you work with me you get care that is calm, attentive, and centered on you.
Who I Work With:
I support individuals who are struggling with poor performance at work/school, anxious thoughts, panic attacks, depressed mood, occupational burnout, and other related conditions.
You're in the right place if:
✓ You're constantly overwhelmed or stressed about upcoming events or tasks needing to be completed
✓ You've been working harder to keep up but you feel like you're failing and burning out
✓ You suspect you have ADHD and need an evaluation, or you've been told you don't have ADHD and would like a second opinion
✓ You need help getting school or workplace accommodations or a leave of absence due to mental stress
✓ Past providers rushed you or didn't listen to your concerns
You've been showing up for everyone else. Inside you feel drained, anxious, or stuck — and you know something has to change.
I’m passionate about helping clients regain balance, hope, and joy in their lives. I specialize in eating disorders and co-occurring concerns, as well as trauma, depression, anxiety, and relational challenges. I’ve worked with clients of all ages across intensive outpatient, partial hospitalization, and inpatient settings, and I bring that depth of experience into my work with each person I support.
