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.

Veronica Yazigi

Veronica Yazigi

Therapist

Virtual • Sugar Land, TX


I am a Licensed Professional Counselor and an EMDR Certified Therapist. I also hold CBTI-C certification through the Board of Behavioral Sleep Medicine and have advanced CBT-I training, including a competency-based program through Stanford University’s Sleep and Health Insomnia Program.

I work with adults navigating anxiety, stress, burnout, insomnia, perfectionism, rumination, trauma-related distress, life transitions, workplace stress, and emotional overwhelm. Many of my clients are responsible, thoughtful, high-functioning adults who hold everything together for others but privately feel depleted, anxious, stuck in their heads, or disconnected from their own needs.

My work is structured, practical, compassionate, and grounded in evidence-based care. I help clients better understand their patterns, build skills, and create changes that can continue beyond therapy.

I am fluent in English, Spanish, and Portuguese, and I work with adults from diverse cultural backgrounds, including clients navigating cultural adjustment, identity, belonging, relocation, and cross-cultural stress.
