“How we relate to whatever we're experiencing is even more important than the experience itself " -Bruce Tift

I believe we all have a natural impulse towards evolution and health. Through training and discipline we can greatly accelerate this process.

Survival strategies needed in childhood, arising from our intelligence, are no longer appropriate and can cause unnecessary suffering. These outdated approaches are primarily unconscious. I provide a safe non judgmental space to get to know your patterns with an attitude of kindness. This awareness can give you the freedom to choose the direction you want instead of being driven by historical conditioning.

Psychiatric Mental Health NP

Virtual • Colorado


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.

On the outside, you may look high-functioning —managing responsibilities, caring for others, showing up for work and relationships — while internally feeling overwhelmed, anxious, disconnected, or stuck in patterns that leave you drained—you don’t have to navigate it alone!

I believe healing is not about becoming someone completely different — it’s about reconnecting with the version of yourself that has been buried underneath stress, survival, anxiety, self-doubt, or past experiences.

Starting therapy can feel vulnerable, but you don’t have to navigate it alone. I would be honored to support you in the process.

Happy patient looking away

Find an expert who truly understands OCD

Headway helps you manage obsessive-compulsive disorder with expert-guided support — from finding the right therapist or psychiatrist, to understanding costs, to scheduling with ease.

Factors to Consider When Choosing an OCD Therapist in Aurora

Finding OCD therapists in Aurora starts with looking for training that matches the care you need. Obsessive-compulsive disorder can involve obsessive thoughts, intrusive thoughts, compulsions, avoidance, and repeated reassurance seeking. Exposure and response prevention, often called ERP, is one therapy approach that some therapists use to support people living with obsessive-compulsive disorder, and not all therapists are trained in it. As you compare options, look for therapists who list ERP, OCD, or related experience in their bios, along with experience supporting concerns that can appear alongside OCD, such as anxiety, depression, or trauma.

Aurora has a range of mental health care options, including local offices and virtual appointments across the area. Virtual care can expand your options if you want a therapist with specific OCD experience or if appointment times near your home, work, or school are limited. As you narrow your search, compare therapists by availability, whether they offer a free phone consultation, and how clearly they describe their approach to OCD care. A bio can help you tell the difference between a therapist who lists OCD as an area of familiarity and one who names ERP or other OCD-focused training.

Therapy in Aurora can be a significant investment without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs and understand what you may pay before you book. Headway helps you search for therapists who are accepting new patients, review detailed profiles, enter your insurance details, and see estimated costs upfront. From there, you can browse therapists, compare fit, and book directly when you’re ready.
