Providing a Trusted Environment where you are Heard and Valued

¡Bienvenidos! I’m Melanie Romo, an Integrative Psychiatric Nurse Practitioner dedicated to helping individuals committed to improving their mental health & well-being.

I help adults struggling with depression, anxiety and bipolar restore confidence, revitalize social connections, overcome anxiety, reclaim energy and find fulfillment by offering holistic approaches including pharmaceuticals, supportive talk-therapy, plant based medicine and more! 

I also have a special interest in working with goal-driven Latinos wanting to optimize their mental health so they can achieve independence and fulfillment in their lives. As a Latina I understand the unique cultural challenges and stigma in the Hispanic community related to mental health.

I provide telepsychiatry services across Arizona in English and Spanish.

I am accepting new patients.
