Patient Stories
Real Results
Hear from patients whose lives were changed by compassionate, integrative psychiatric care.
Overcame Panic attacks and depression as a single mother.
“I was 23 years old in panic attack when my boyfriend left me with three kids, my friend took me in for a week and referred me to see Mirabel - she changed my life and saved my kids when depression rendered me hopeless and helpless. Now I can enjoy my children as a single mom - Thanks you Mirabel.”

About Me
Your Strategic Partner in
Whole-Person Care
I became a nurse practitioner because I saw the gap. Talented, high-functioning adults were being told their labs were “normal” — yet they were exhausted, anxious, overwhelmed, gaining weight, struggling with high BP, blood sugar, or mood instability. Their symptoms were separately treated. Their stories were rushed. I knew there had to be a better way.

How We Work
Our Philosophy
“You are the CEO of your body — I am your strategic partner”
Treat the Whole System
Your symptoms are not random. Blood pressure changes, blood sugar imbalance, mood shifts, fatigue, and stress responses often share underlying drivers — inflammation, lifestyle strain, sleep disruption, nervous system overload, and metabolic imbalance. We look deeper to understand why your body is responding the way it is.
Partnership — Not Dictation
You are the CEO of your health. My role is to provide medical expertise, strategy, and clinical insight so you understand your labs, physiology, metabolic markers, and nervous system patterns. Understanding your body builds confidence and control.
Optimize — Not Just Stabilize
Managing illness matters, but healthcare should also focus on resilience, vitality, prevention, and long-term wellness. Medication is used thoughtfully when appropriate, alongside lifestyle, nutrition, and functional medicine strategies. Stability is the baseline. Vitality is the goal.
Questions & Answers
Frequently Asked Questions
Have questions about our services? I'm here to help you feel confident about taking the next step toward better mental health.
Is this affordable? What are the costs?
The initial psychiatric intake is $250 per session and follow-up visits are $125 per session, both cash pay. We also offer a free 15-minute screening so you can learn about our approach before committing. Insurance will be accepted starting September 2026.
How much time does treatment take?
Treatment duration varies by individual, but most patients begin to notice improvement within the first few visits. All appointments are conducted via telehealth for your convenience — no commute, no waiting rooms. Follow-up visits are typically bi-weekly, and we adjust frequency based on your progress.
I've tried other treatments before. What makes your approach different?
Unlike traditional psychiatric care that focuses solely on medications, I use an integrated approach that treats the whole person — not just symptoms. As both a Family Nurse Practitioner and Psychiatric-Mental Health NP, I understand how physical conditions like diabetes and hypertension interact with mental health. I incorporate functional medicine principles and focus on root-cause analysis — more pills are not always better.
Will this work for me?
With over 20 years of nursing experience, dual board certifications, a doctorate in nursing practice, and functional medicine certification, I bring a depth of clinical expertise that most providers can't match. My integrated approach has helped patients across a wide spectrum — from young adults with panic attacks to patients with complex comorbidities. Start with a free 15-minute screening and let's discuss your specific situation.
Am I ready for psychiatric care?
If you're asking this question, you're already taking an important step. There's no wrong time to seek help. Our free 15-minute screening is designed specifically for people who aren't sure if they're ready — it's a no-pressure conversation about your concerns and how we might help. You are the CEO of your body, and seeking care is a sign of strength.
What conditions do you treat?
I specialize in high blood pressure and metabolic health concerns, blood sugar dysregulation and insulin resistance, anxiety and mood disorders, depression, chronic stress, and inflammation-related conditions. I also provide functional medicine integration including root-cause analysis, lifestyle and nutrition strategy, and personalized prevention planning — all through an integrated approach that treats the whole person.
Is telehealth as effective as in-person visits?
Absolutely. Telehealth psychiatric care has been shown to be equally effective as in-person visits for the conditions I treat. It offers the added benefit of convenience — you can attend appointments from the comfort of your home or office. Based in Aurora, all visits are conducted via secured telehealth — convenient, confidential, and comprehensive.
Do you accept insurance?
Currently all services are cash pay ($250 initial intake, $125 follow-up). This model allows for extended, unrushed appointments, personalized care planning, direct provider access, and integrated treatment without insurance restrictions. We will begin accepting insurance starting September 2026. I can provide superbills that you may submit to your insurance company for potential out-of-network reimbursement.
