Hello! I’m Dr. Mary Daniels, DNP, PMHNP-BC, a Board-Certified Psychiatric Nurse Practitioner dedicated to providing compassionate and personalized mental health care. With a strong educational background in nursing, I specialize in helping individuals manage mental health conditions and achieve overall wellness. I’m excited to work with you and support your unique needs and goals.
I am able to evaluate and make diagnoses, and/or support existing diagnoses and work with you for a 'best-fit' solution to your needs. So many come from a past of being told they are 'X, Y, Z" and often misdiagnosed or underdiagnosed.
My goal is to help find a good treatment start point that resonates with you and provide evidence-based treatment to support your needs, goals, and desires to bring relief and remission, joy and hope.
All options on the table including progressive medication management, psychotherapy and counseling, or referrals for other modalities including deepTMS.

Headway makes it easy to find support for your mental health — from finding the right provider, to understanding costs, to scheduling with ease.
Factors to Consider When Choosing a Psychiatrist in Lafayette
Finding psychiatrists in Lafayette starts with knowing which type of mental health support you want. Psychiatrists and psychiatric mental health nurse practitioners can diagnose conditions, prescribe medication, and manage medication over time. Therapists offer talk therapy and can also be part of your care. If you are looking for support with anxiety, depression, ADHD, bipolar disorder, OCD, or medication management, review each psychiatrist’s listed specialties, background, and approach before booking.
Lafayette is a smaller city, so local psychiatry options may be more limited than in nearby Denver or Boulder. Virtual appointments can expand your choices while still letting you find a psychiatrist licensed in Colorado. Psychiatric visits for medication management are often shorter and less frequent than therapy sessions. Some psychiatrists also offer therapy, and some people see both a therapist and a prescriber. As you compare profiles, look at appointment availability, whether the psychiatrist is accepting new patients, and what their bio says about communication style and session structure.
Psychiatric care in Lafayette can be a significant expense without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs and understand what you may pay before care begins. Headway helps you search for psychiatrists who accept a wide range of insurance plans, verify your coverage, see estimated costs upfront, and book directly when you are 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.
