Hi, I’m Angela , a Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor (LPCC). I believe that healing is a journey of both the mind and the spirit. I specialize in helping individuals and couples navigate the heavy weights of trauma, anxiety, and depression.

I provide a safe, non-judgmental space to explore your challenges. My goal is to help you process past hurts and find practical tools to move forward with hope and clarity.

When I’m not in the office, you’ll likely find me in the kitchen. I love to cook, and I find that the patience and care required to create a great meal often mirrors the intentional work we do together in therapy. I look forward to supporting you on your path to wellness.

Hi, I’m Bianca Mitchell, a board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner with over 14 years of nursing experience and specialized training in diagnosing and treating anxiety, depression, mood disorders, and trauma-related conditions in adolescents and adults.

I provide thoughtful, evidence-based medication management with a collaborative approach. I believe treatment works best when you feel heard, respected, and actively involved in your care. Whether you're navigating stress, life transitions, focus challenges, or long-standing mental health concerns, my goal is to create a safe and supportive space where we can work together toward stability and growth.

I have extensive experience in telepsychiatry and high-volume clinical settings, which has strengthened my ability to quickly identify patterns, tailor treatment plans, and provide efficient, compassionate care. I also incorporate elements of supportive therapy and cognitive-behavioral strategies during visits when appropriate.

My approach is direct, structured, and patient-centered. I value clarity, accountability, and open communication. If you're ready to take the next step toward feeling better and functioning at your best, I look forward to working with you.

Kaitlyn Wyatt

Kaitlyn Wyatt

Psychiatric Mental Health NP

Virtual • New Mexico


I'm a board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner, and I believe good mental health care starts with an actual conversation—not a checklist, a quick prescription, and a "see you in three months."

Before specializing in psychiatry, I spent over a decade working in emergency, critical care, and procedural nursing. That experience taught me that what's happening with your mental health rarely exists in a vacuum. Your physical health, hormones, relationships, stress, and everyday life all deserve a seat at the table.

I have a particular passion for helping women navigate ADHD, anxiety, bipolar, depression, PMDD, perimenopause, and those wonderfully complicated seasons of life when everything seems to be changing at once.

My approach is evidence-based, hormone-informed, and collaborative. I'm not here to throw medications at symptoms and cross my fingers. I'm here to ask thoughtful questions, connect the dots, explain your options, and help you find a treatment plan that actually fits your life.

You can expect honest conversations, education without the medical jargon, a little humor when the moment calls for it, and absolutely no judgment. Most importantly, you'll always have a voice in your care. You're the expert on your lived experience, and my job is to bring the clinical expertise to help you make informed decisions.

Because you deserve more than someone who listens just long enough to write a prescription. You deserve someone who truly listens.
