Bipolar disorder therapists & psychiatrists in Sparks, NV

Most people don't come to therapy because life is perfect. They come because they're tired of living the same painful loop and wondering when something is finally going to change. That's where I come in. I'm Jared, and I work with individuals and couples of all ages across Nevada by telehealth. I help people who feel stuck in patterns rooted in trauma, including anxiety, depression, OCD, grief, and substance use. Whether you're a single parent juggling everything, a couple working to reconnect, or someone tired of carrying it alone, I would love to help.

I am a nurse practitioner with dual certifications in family practice and psychiatric mental health. My passion for holistic care drives my integrated approach, addressing both primary care and mental health to meet my patients' diverse needs. I provide care that considers the physical, emotional, and mental well-being of each individual. By blending evidence-based practices with empathetic listening, I empower patients to take an active role in their health journey and achieve optimal outcomes.

I approach therapy as a collaborator. My method is client-centered and humanistic. I aim to accompany my clients in achieving the goals brought into the therapeutic environment with openness, empathy, and compassion. Creating goals in small steps is vital for progress and change. Identifying insecure attachment and dysfunctional patterns will lead to lasting change. My clients can learn to recognize unhealthy cycles and gain a deeper understanding of their attachment styles.

Currently, I do not provide therapy for couples or minors.

Do you feel buried under the heavy weight of depression, or find your days derailed by intense mood shifts you can’t seem to control? Living with trauma or bipolar disorder can feel like an exhausting, lonely battle, leaving you feeling disconnected from the people and life you love. You might be constantly managing anxiety, stress, or relationship strain, wondering if you'll ever find solid ground. You do not have to navigate this darkness alone. You deserve a space where your pain is met with deep understanding, and where your story is heard without judgment.

I am a licensed Marriage and Family Therapist in the State of Nevada. I graduated with my Master of Science in Marriage, Family, and Child Counseling in 2009 and hold three degrees in the field of counseling/psychology. I am within several classes of achieving a second Master's degree in the field of substance abuse treatment. I have additional formal and practical training in the areas of trauma informed care, impulse control/anger management, crisis intervention, and cognitive behavioral modification strategies. I have worked with a wide variety of populations including co-occurring disorders (substance and mental health), at risk youth, and various other adult high risk/high need populations in both intensive inpatient and outpatient settings. Throughout my years of experience, I have worked at length with the majority of DSM V diagnosed disorders.
