Meet Andrew
Board-Certified Psychiatric-Mental Health Nurse Practitioner
I'm a doctorally-educated, board-certified Psychiatric-Mental Health Nurse Practitioner, and I know that healing is possible for you. I offer both psychiatric medication management and individual psychotherapy to adults (18-64 years old).
​
My services are offered exclusively via telehealth, which means they are available to anyone living within the wonderful state of Utah, from Logan to St. George.
​
My psychotherapeutic specialties include navigating healing from PTSD and complex trauma, sexual abuse and assault, grief and loss, and faith crises or reconciling one's faith with one's sexuality. I am keenly aware of the unique mental healths needs of men, LGB individuals, and military veterans.
I can also help you combat intrusive thoughts; address and change problematic behaviors/patterns; learn how to determine, set, and maintain boundaries; reunite with your inner child and learn how to parent yourself; increase your tolerance of anxiety and the unknown; navigate life transitions (e.g., changing jobs, moving/relocating, "adulting"); improve your social skills; explore your identity and accept/integrate split-off parts of yourself; and navigate the "coming out" process.​
​
I accept the following forms of payment:
-
self-pay (credit or debit card)
-
Aetna
-
Public Employees Health Plan (PEHP) (Advantage, Advantage State, Summit, Summit Exclusive, Preferred, & Capital plans)
-
Regence / Blue Cross Blue Shield (BCBS)
-
Select Health (Choice, Care, Med, & Value plans)
-
United Healthcare (UHC/UHB)
-
I am an out-of-network provider for other insurances.
​
What I know for sure is that asking for help can feel vulnerable and hard--but it can also be the first step to reclaiming your life. If you are ready to make a change, please request an appointment. I look working with you and hearing your story!
Testimonials
Thank you for being the most impactful and effective therapist I’ve ever had. When we started working together, I didn’t have a positive view of myself. You encouraged me to create an affirmation. I couldn’t tell myself that “I am enough.” I had to say, “You are enough.” Because I was so conditioned to serve others—sometimes to my detriment. Now, I know that not only am I enough, I am everything!
Because of you, I set clear boundaries. People-pleasing? We don’t know her! Because of you, I can clearly communicate my needs, feelings, and wants. Because of you, I model healthy behaviors that my children demonstrate. Because of you, I understand that I don’t need to be perfect; mistakes are lessons.
We have been through a lot together. Your encouragement, humor, empathy, and skills have helped me grow into a person I love.
