Dawn Gutierrez

Psychiatric Mental Health NP

Virtual & in-person • San Antonio, TX


Hi! My name is Dawn Gutierrez. I am a dual-certified Family Nurse Practitioner and Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner with over 20 years of experience in healthcare.

My clinical experience spans across Family Health, Women's Health, Behavioral Health, Emergency and Trauma comprehensive care at the Military Hospital for over 15 years. I then specialized in gender-affirming services such as hormone therapy and ongoing care for transgender and gender-diverse individuals. While providing care for the LGBQTIA community, I was drawn to continuing my education in Mental Health Care to provide Psychiatric services to this community as well.

I approach each patient with respect for their lived experience, identity, and goals, emphasizing collaborative decision-making and individualized treatment plans. My work is grounded in trauma-informed care, clinical excellence, and a strong belief that affirming, accessible healthcare is essential to both mental and physical well-being.

I have extensive experience delivering care through both telehealth and in-clinic settings, allowing me to meet patients where they are and reduce barriers to access. I am deeply committed to providing compassionate, evidence-based, and patient-centered care in a safe, respectful, and affirming environment.

Outside of work I enjoy spending quality time with my family, which brings balance to the work I love. Caring for others—both at home and in my practice—is at the heart of who I am.

I'm Carol Hernandez, a bilingual therapist, mother, and proud Latina woman deeply connected to my culture and community. I grew up between Southern California and the Rio Grande Valley, went to college at UTRGV in South Texas and did my graduate studies at Baylor University. Over the past five years, I've gotten to work in all kinds of settings such as hospitals, inpatient and outpatient programs, and alongside medical teams, which has given me a pretty wide view of how mental health shows up in people's lives. I love working with BIPOC, LGBTQ+, immigrant, and neurodivergent communities. I specialize in issues of anxiety, depression, chronic stress, trauma, big life changes, grief, post partum depression, or just feeling overwhelmed and not feeling like yourself.
