Hi, I’m Allison Scott, a psychiatric nurse practitioner trained at the University of Arizona. I help people navigate ADHD, anxiety, depression, and mood concerns with a warm, down-to-earth approach. My care is holistic and integrative—this means I look at the full picture: your mind, body, and story. I also support alternative methods such as ketamine assisted psychotherapy. Together, we’ll find what truly supports your well-being and lasting change.
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 Therapist in Tucson
Finding the right psychiatrist in Tucson starts with understanding what kind of care you need. Psychiatrists are medical doctors who can diagnose mental health conditions, prescribe medication, and in some cases provide talk therapy. If you're looking for help with anxiety, depression, ADHD, bipolar disorder, PTSD, or medication management, a psychiatrist may be the right fit. Psychiatric nurse practitioners (PMHNPs) can also prescribe and manage medication and are another option available through Headway.
With providers practicing across Tucson — from midtown and the University District to Oro Valley and Sahuarita — narrowing your search can take time. Consider what matters most to you, whether that's a provider who specializes in a specific condition, offers virtual appointments, or practices near your neighborhood. Reading a provider's bio can help you understand their approach and decide if they're a good match before you book.
Psychiatry sessions in Tucson can be expensive without insurance. Using your in-network benefits is one of the most reliable ways to lower your out-of-pocket costs. On Headway, you can enter your insurance details to see estimated session costs upfront, and many patients pay as low as $0 per visit. Nationally, Headway partners with over 100 insurance plans, making it easier to find a psychiatrist who is both the right clinical fit and covered by your plan.
