Dr. Diana Price

Psychiatric Mental Health NP

Virtual & in-person • 4.2 mi away • Abilene, TX


Hello- I’m Diana Price, a doctoral-prepared, dual board-certified Family Nurse Practitioner and Psychiatric-Mental Health Nurse Practitioner. I bring extensive clinical experience in treating individuals across the lifespan, including those with complex trauma, co-occurring conditions, and persistent mental health challenges.

In my practice, I take a comprehensive, person-centered approach to care. I believe that true healing requires attention to the whole person—mind, body, and spirit. This means I look at all aspects of your well-being, not just your symptoms, to develop a holistic treatment plan tailored to your unique needs.

As a trauma survivor myself, I deeply understand the challenges of navigating mental and emotional health. This personal experience allows me to offer a high level of empathy and compassion in my work. My patients often share that one of my greatest strengths is my ability to listen without judgment and to offer a space where they feel truly heard. I am committed to creating a safe, respectful environment where you can feel supported and empowered in your healing journey.

If you’re feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or disconnected from yourself, therapy can be a space to slow down and begin reconnecting with what matters most. I support adults who are navigating life’s challenges and want to better understand themselves, their emotions, and the patterns shaping their lives.

My role is to be a steady, supportive presence as you explore your inner world and move toward healing and growth. I strive to create a positive, judgment-free space where you feel safe showing up as you are and beginning the healing process at your own pace.

Hi, I'm Julie Mendizabal, a Licensed Clinical Social Worker based in Florida. I specialize in helping individuals and couples feel heard, understood, and empowered. Whether you're navigating anxiety, relationship struggles, or a life transition that's left you unsteady, I offer a compassionate, nonjudgmental space where you can explore what's happening and find lasting change.

Find the right therapist for you

Headway makes it easy to find support for your mental health — from finding the right provider, to understanding costs, to scheduling with ease.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Therapist in Abilene

Searching for therapists in Abilene starts with finding someone whose training and focus match what you want support with. Therapists and counselors may help with concerns like anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, grief, stress, and life transitions. As you compare options, look for specialties listed in each therapist’s profile, such as cognitive behavioral therapy, trauma-informed care, couples counseling, or experience supporting people through major life changes. These details can help you understand whether a therapist’s approach fits your needs before you book.

In a smaller city like Abilene, local appointment options may vary by schedule, office location, and specialty. Virtual therapy can expand your search while still connecting you with a therapist licensed in Texas. Some people prefer in-person sessions, while others choose virtual appointments for easier scheduling. As you narrow your options, review whether each therapist is accepting new patients, offers appointment times that fit your calendar, and provides a free phone consultation. Reading therapist bios can also show how they communicate, structure sessions, and describe their approach to care.

Therapy in Abilene 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 care begins. Headway helps you search for therapists who accept a wide range of insurance plans, verify your coverage, and view estimated out-of-pocket costs before booking. You can browse therapist profiles, compare availability, and book directly when you’re ready.

If you're experiencing or worried about violence, threats, or coercion in your relationship, couples therapy isn't usually the right starting point — individual support is safer. The National Domestic Violence Hotline (1-800-799-7233, or text START to 88788\) can help you think through next steps.

1 Cost may vary based on your location, age, and insurance coverage.
