I have been a double board-certified nurse practitioner for over 5 years, and I'm passionate about using my nearly 20 years of nursing experience to empower individuals struggling with mental health. Beyond my dedication to my family (married to a wonderful man and blessed with 4 lovely children), I find joy in exploring the world, having visited 5 continents! When I'm not caring for patients or navigating family life, I'm dreaming of adventures in the remaining two!
I’m a board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner with experience working in both inpatient and outpatient settings across Arizona. I’ve worked closely with individuals experiencing anxiety, depression, trauma, bipolar disorder, and more complex mental health challenges. My background includes crisis work, outpatient care, and medication management, allowing me to meet you in both difficult seasons and times of growth. I’m passionate about providing supportive, evidence-based care that meets you where you are.
Life can feel overwhelming—but you don’t have to navigate it alone. I’m here to help you regain clarity, stability, and a sense of control.
I’m Monika Delyser, a board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner providing thoughtful, culturally sensitive care for adults experiencing burnout, anxiety, mood disorders, ADHD, and sleep challenges.
I work with professionals, entrepreneurs, students, and high-functioning adults who are dealing with anxiety, burnout, and focus challenges. Many of my clients appear “fine” on the outside but feel overwhelmed, mentally exhausted, or stuck.
Who I’m a Good Fit For: busy professionals under pressure, entrepreneurs and high performers, college and graduate students, adults seeking structured, goal-oriented care.
I am a graduate of University ofTexas Health Science Center, Houston, and Wilkes University, Wilkes-Bare, PA. I hold a dual board certification as a PMHNP and FNP with an Emergency Medicine certification as well. I have 16 years experience in Psychiatry across the lifespan, Emergency Medicine, and Internal Medicine. Treating adults, children and adolescents, autism, addiction, as an acute care hospitalist, and Assistant Medical Director to acute care psychiatric facilities.
I work primarily with adults navigating anxiety and depression, trauma, and body-related concerns. Having personally experienced body issues and significant health diagnoses over the past 30 years, I believe our mental health is inseparable from the bodies we live in. I believe the mind and body are deeply interconnected and that healing happens when we honor both. My practice is integrative, compassionate, and rooted in honoring each person's unique path to wellness, and I welcome all genders, identities, and lived experiences. I am a Psychiatric Nurse Practitioner and Family Nurse Practitioner with a background in Anthropology. I have completed fellowship in Integrative Reproductive Mental Healthcare. Currently, I am pursuing advanced fellowship training in Nutritional Psychiatry and Ketamine Therapy. I have also trained in Gender-Affirming Care and am passionate about providing safe inclusive spaces for all.
I believe mental health treatment works best as a collaborative partnership. I take time to understand each client's unique experiences, symptoms, strengths, and goals before developing an individualized treatment plan. Treatment may include medication management, psychoeducation, lifestyle recommendations, and referrals for therapy or additional services when appropriate.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Psychiatrist in Gilbert, AZ
Finding the right psychiatrist in Gilbert starts with understanding which type of care fits your needs. Psychiatrists and psychiatric nurse practitioners can diagnose mental health conditions and prescribe medication, while therapists focus on talk therapy. Medication management usually includes reviewing symptoms, discussing how your current care plan is working, and making updates when clinically appropriate. People often search for psychiatry support for anxiety, depression, ADHD, bipolar disorder, OCD, and related concerns. As you compare Gilbert psychiatrists, look for someone whose listed specialties, training, and care approach match what you want support with.
In a mid-sized community like Gilbert, your search may include nearby areas such as Higley, Queen Creek, and San Tan Valley, along with virtual appointments across Arizona. Some people prefer an in-person office, while others choose virtual psychiatry for easier scheduling. Psychiatric appointments, especially medication management visits, are often shorter and less frequent than therapy sessions. Some psychiatrists also offer therapy, and some people work with both a therapist and a prescriber. Before booking, review each psychiatrist’s bio for availability, communication style, session structure, and whether they offer a free phone consultation.
Psychiatric care in Gilbert can be a significant expense without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs and understand your expected out-of-pocket cost before you book. Headway helps you find psychiatrists and psychiatric nurse practitioners who are accepting new patients and match your plan. You can compare bios, confirm whether virtual or in-person care fits your schedule, see estimated costs upfront, and book directly when you’re ready.
If you're already taking psychiatric medication and considering switching providers, talk to your current prescriber before changing or stopping any medication — most psychiatric medications shouldn't be stopped abruptly. Anyone experiencing thoughts of self-harm or in acute crisis should call 988 or go to the nearest emergency department rather than wait for an outpatient appointment.
