📅 Calendar: https://calendar.app.google/mthW2bCyu8UjfChA9


Hi, I’m Dr. Deneice, DNP, MBA, MSN, APRN, PMHNP-BC. I am a doctoral-prepared, board-certified psychiatric mental health nurse practitioner and owner of Eden Total Care.


I provide concierge-style virtual psychiatric care for young-feeling adults at any age who are navigating anxiety, depression, insomnia, PTSD, PMDD, ADHD, autism-related concerns, mood symptoms, emotional overwhelm, burnout, and diagnostic uncertainty.

My primary role is psychiatric evaluation and medication management. I also incorporate supportive therapy, life coaching, and holistic guidance when appropriate. My goal is to help you feel heard, understood, and properly treated — not rushed, dismissed, or reduced to a diagnosis.


Appointment Guide:

• New clients: 40-minute initial assessment

• Returning clients: 20-minute follow-up

• Self-Pay clients: may request longer appointments


Please email or message me before booking an appointment to ensure availability. Limited appointment times are available, and emailing directly is the fastest way to get started.

Lillian Norris

Therapist

Virtual & in-person • Fort Collins, CO


I believe that each person holds inherent wisdom needed to transform pain into healing. Although pain is a natural part of life, it doesn't have to define your future. My belief is that through a trusted relationship, you can access an inner sense of safety needed to heal wounds while honoring your unique journey.

I am deeply committed to supporting individuals on their life journey, fostering an environment for healing, transformation, and empowerment through providing accessible mental health services. I hold training and experience in children/adolescent mental health, and utilize the therapeutic powers of play to meet children where they are.

Andrea Uliano

Psychiatric Mental Health NP

Virtual & in-person • Dillon, CO


Andrea Uliano brings over 20 years of clinical healthcare experience, beginning her career as a clinical social worker before transitioning to a registered nurse and ultimately becoming a board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner. With a strong foundation in both mental health and medicine, Andrea’s practice is rooted in a holistic philosophy that prioritizes balance, connection, and individualized care.


Throughout her career, Andrea has remained committed to treating the whole person, not just the symptoms. She avoids quick fixes and extreme regimens, instead focusing on thoughtful, goal-oriented solutions that honor the deep connection between the mind and body. Her approach emphasizes collaboration, problem-solving, and long-term wellness rather than temporary results.


Originally from Long Island, New York, Andrea has called the mountains of Vail and Summit County home for the past 16 years. Living in a small mountain community has given her a unique understanding of the challenges faced by locals, allowing her to connect deeply with her patients. She has a particular passion for working with individuals navigating substance and alcohol use, anxiety, depression, ADHD, eating disorders, and women’s health concerns.

I help clients navigate beyond cyclical patterns of behavior that interfere with value-oriented goals. Clients find me after struggling with compulsive choices to seek relief through mind-altering substances, social media, porn, unsatisfactory relationships, etc. I encourage skill building to address the crippling symptoms of chronic anxiety and depression while also healing underlying trauma, grief, and insecurity that might unconsciously drive choices that are stifling growth.

Danielle Rabinovich

Therapist

Virtual • Colorado


My name is Danielle, and I was born and raised in Colorado Springs. As a former college athlete, I have always valued movement, balance, and living an active lifestyle. In my free time, I enjoy swimming, hiking, running, biking, and spending weekends in the mountains, along with being a mother to my two precious children! 🥰

I earned my Master’s degree from University of Denver, where I discovered my passion for psychology and understanding human behavior. Throughout my career, I have worked with children, adolescents, teenagers, and adults across a variety of treatment settings. I have extensive experience supporting individuals struggling with eating disorders, depression, anxiety, trauma, learning disabilities, autism, personality disorders, identity concerns, and other mental health challenges. I believe there is no “one-size-fits-all” approach to therapy. I enjoy taking an integrative and individualized approach to treatment, meeting clients where they are while supportively walking alongside them throughout their journey. My therapeutic style is compassionate, empathetic, and client-centered. My goal is to help clients cultivate inner peace, self-acceptance, and resilience as they navigate life’s many transitions and adventures.


Professionally, I am a Licensed Professional Counselor in the state of Colorado (License #LPC.0015577, 2017). I have worked in inpatient, partial hospitalization, residential treatment, and traditional outpatient settings within the mental health field. I have specialized training in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), both of which I incorporate into my practice. I am also certified in Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) therapy and board certified in neurofeedback therapy (BCN)!

"Therapy is a collaborative process, not a one-size-fits-all solution. I view our work together as an active partnership where you are the expert on your own life, and I am here to provide the tools, perspective, and support to help you navigate it.

I strive to bring warmth, active engagement, and an open, non-judgmental presence to every session. Working primarily with young adults and professionals, I recognize the unique pressures of navigating major life transitions, career stress, identity, and complex personal challenges. Whether we are processing past trauma, managing anxiety or depression, or navigating addiction recovery, my goal is to create a grounded, supportive environment where you feel fully heard, respected, and equipped to create meaningful, lasting change."
