Bipolar disorder therapists & psychiatrists in Salt Lake City, UT

I believe we all deserve to be happy and enjoy this life. I enjoy working with clients to learn skills and overcome barriers to reach this goal

Hi, I’m Chandler Reed, a board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner. I work with adults facing a range of mental health concerns, including anxiety, depression, ADHD, other mood disorders, and life transitions. My approach is collaborative and practical, combining medication management and therapy when helpful. I aim to create a calm, judgment-free space where you feel heard and supported.

I'm curious by nature. Interested in learning about people and what makes them tick. Fascinated by the world.

I’m Chris.

I enjoy helping others with the challenges of daily living. I am interested in what motivates people and helping them modify behavior patterns. People aren't broken, they are doing perfectly that which they would like to do differently. I enjoy helping people grow and change, moving to the next level they desire. I have degrees in psychology and mental health counseling. I have been helping people find relieve from fear, pain, and discomfort for more than 20 years.

Maybe you have sensed something was different but never had the words for it. Maybe you have been carrying anxiety, depression, trauma, OCD, or other struggles that have made everyday life feel harder than it should. Or maybe you have wondered whether ADHD or Autism is part of your story. As a PhD, I conduct formal assessments for ADHD, Autism, and more. I also provide ongoing therapy so you leave with real tools for a more joyful life.

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.

I am a down-to-earth, supportive, nonjudgmental, and open-minded Board Certified Psychiatric NP. I began my work in psychiatric care as a registered nurse treating patients in various hospital settings who were experiencing a mental health crisis. For a more rewarding 1-on-1 approach, I returned to grad school and earned a Masters, and chose to become certified as a Psychiatric NP. I am honored and fortunate to have the opportunity to manage medications for kids and adults with ADHD, depression, anxiety, PTSD, Bipolar, Panic, Sleep problems, and other ailments from a place of encouragement and respect and based on an ever growing library of peer reviewed scientific literature and medical treatment guidelines.
