Dr. Rebekah Layher

I'm Dr. Rebekah Layher, DNP, PMHNP-BC, CIPP, a board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner dedicated to compassionate, whole-person mental healthcare. I received my Doctorate in Nursing Practice (DNP) from the University of Wyoming, where I specialized in psychiatric mental health care. However, believing there was more to healing than traditional allopathic education/practice, I completed an Integrative Psychiatric Practitioner (CIPP) fellowship, which addresses the physical, emotional, environmental, and lifestyle factors that impact mental health. I approach care holistically - combining thoughtful medication management with nutrition, movement, sleep support, mindfulness, and lifestyle interventions personalized to each individual.

My approach is rooted in integrative psychiatry - evidence based mental health care that looks beyond symptoms to explore underlying patterns and root causes. I believe that "medication is medicine, not mandate" - and healing is most effective when it honors the whole person: mind, body, and spirit. I work collaboratively with clients through empathetic listening and shared decision-making, blending thoughtful medication management with nutrition, lifestyle support, mindfulness, and other holistic tools to support lasting change.

Patients can expect a personalized collaborative experience centered on their unique story and goals. I aim to provide not just treatment plans, but tools for transformation - helping clients build insight, restore balance, and move forward with confidence and clarity. Whether it's finding the right medication, identifying lifestyle shifts, or processing underlying patterns, our work together is always guided by respect, empathy, and whole-person healing.
