Psychiatric Mental Health NP

Virtual • Utah


I am a board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner (PMHNP) providing compassionate, evidence-based care to adolescents and adults. My approach blends clinical expertise with a collaborative, patient-centered philosophy, I believe treatment works best when you feel heard, understood, and actively involved in your care.

I earned my graduate degree in psychiatric-mental health nursing from Northern Kentucky University and have experience treating a wide range of conditions, including anxiety disorders, depression, ADHD, trauma-related conditions, mood disorders, and medication management for complex psychiatric presentations. My background includes working with individuals navigating life transitions, high-achieving professionals experiencing burnout, and patients seeking thoughtful, personalized medication management.

I specialize in comprehensive psychiatric evaluations and medication management, with a focus on clarity, safety, and long-term stability. I aim to avoid overmedication while ensuring symptoms are effectively treated. When appropriate, I integrate supportive therapy techniques into sessions to help patients build insight, resilience, and practical coping strategies.

My practice is fully telehealth-based, allowing for convenient, private access to care. My goal is to create a space where you feel comfortable discussing what’s really going on — without judgment — and to work together toward meaningful, sustainable improvement in your mental health.

Hi I'm Blair, a licensed clinical social worker with experience in behavioral health, residential, and community-based settings. My work is rooted in a relational, intuitive approach, with a strong focus on the connection between mind and body. I care a lot about helping people reconnect, with themselves, their bodies, and the world around them. Outside of therapy, I’m deeply drawn to nature and have led outdoor programs for adolescents around the world, which continues to shape how I show up in this work. Because of this background, I am offering walk and talk sessions in addition to virtual. I aim to be authentic, present, and genuinely curious with the people I work with.

Struggling with depression, anxiety, self-doubt, or major life changes can feel overwhelming and isolating. Whether you're facing a difficult transition, working through past experiences, or feeling stuck in patterns that no longer serve you, you don't have to navigate it alone.

I work with adults and young adults to manage anxiety, heal from trauma, strengthen self-esteem, and build greater confidence in themselves and their decisions. My approach is supportive, collaborative, and tailored to your unique needs, helping you identify both the challenges you face and the strengths you already possess.

Together, we’ll create a personalized plan for growth that is realistic, empowering, and grounded in your values and goals. My goal is to help you develop practical tools, build resilience, and create meaningful, lasting change so you can move forward with greater clarity, confidence, and self-compassion.

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 specialize in working with adults who are navigating anxiety, ADHD, depression, grief, trauma, panic disorders, relationship challenges, and the particular weight that comes with being a woman managing too much at once. I'm a Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor (LCMHC) based in Utah, and I offer all sessions via telehealth — so wherever you are in the state, you can access consistent, quality care without rearranging your whole schedule. I bring a wide range of evidence-based tools to every session, including CBT, DBT, trauma-focused CBT, Cognitive Processing Therapy (CPT), Narrative Therapy, SFBT, REBT, Gestalt, and Motivational Interviewing. That breadth matters because no two people struggle the same way — my job is to find the right fit for you, not apply a one-size approach.

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 Salt Lake City

Searching for therapists in Salt Lake City starts with knowing what kind of support fits your needs. Therapists may help with concerns like anxiety, depression, trauma, relationship challenges, grief, stress, or life transitions. As you compare Salt Lake therapists, look for someone whose listed specialties and approach match what you want to address. A therapist’s profile can show whether they use approaches such as cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavior therapy, eye movement desensitization and reprocessing, or acceptance and commitment therapy.

In Salt Lake City, your search may include therapists near Downtown, Sugar House, Holladay, or other nearby neighborhoods, along with Utah therapists who offer virtual appointments. Some people prefer an office that fits their commute or daily routine, while others choose virtual therapy for more scheduling options. Beyond specialty, consider appointment availability, whether the therapist is accepting new patients, session format, and whether they offer a free phone consultation. Reading bios before you book can help you understand a therapist’s communication style, experience, and what sessions may look like.

Therapy in Salt Lake City can be a significant investment without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to lower your out-of-pocket session costs. Headway helps you find licensed therapists who accept a wide range of insurance plans, many of whom are accepting new patients, and who match your preferences for care, schedule, and format. You can enter your insurance details, see an estimated cost before booking, review therapist profiles, and book directly when you’re ready.

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