Shara Ally

Shara Ally

Psychiatric Mental Health NP

Virtual • Flagstaff, AZ


Shara Ally, DNP, PMHNP-BC, is a board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner providing evidence-based medication management for adults (18+) via telehealth. As an author and TEDx speaker, she translates complex research into clear, practical care plans that help patients feel informed and supported.

Shara specializes in mood and anxiety disorders, trauma-related conditions (PTSD), adult ADHD, OCD, bipolar spectrum disorders, and women's mental health across the reproductive lifespan—including perinatal and postpartum mood disorders, PMDD, and menopausal transitions. Her practice is medication-focused and highly collaborative, with education, skills coaching, and supportive check-ins integrated into visits. She coordinates closely with therapists, primary care providers, OB-GYNs, and other clinicians to ensure cohesive treatment.

Patients can expect a comprehensive evaluation reviewing history, symptoms, prior treatments, and goals. Shara practices thoughtful prescribing with transparent discussion of options, benefits, and side effects so decisions are truly shared. She uses measurement-based care—structured symptom tracking—to guide adjustments and reduce trial-and-error. Her whole-person approach integrates sleep, nutrition, movement, and stress management when relevant, with streamlined access through secure telehealth and clear after-visit summaries.

Shara's style is warm, direct, and person-centered, grounded in shared decision-making. Her care is trauma-informed, culturally responsive, and rooted in current clinical evidence. Beyond clinical practice, she serves as a nurse educator and academic mentor, shaping future psychiatric clinicians through evidence-based teaching. An international fellowship in India enriched her global perspective through research and teaching in hospital and university settings.

Hi, I’m Jessica, and I’ve been working in the helping professions since 1999. I have a deep calling for holding a guiding light during your dark times. I hold a Master’s degree in Counseling and am a licensed therapist in Arizona, using evidence based talk therapy and trauma processing modalities. Throughout my career, I’ve found that a calm presence can make all the difference, and that’s what I always intend to bring to my work. I’ve also had the honor of being a yoga teacher with a background in holistic living, and understand the mind-body connection. Mindfulness meditation is a part of my own personal practice, and I may incorporate this into my therapy work to help you cultivate peace and clarity.

On a personal note, as an adolescent I exited the conservative, tight-knit religion I was raised in and never looked back. I respect the bravery and courage it takes to be true to yourself. I identify as a multicultural female, who is spiritual not religious. Immersing myself in art, nature and the vast mystery of it all is grounding for me. I have an appreciation for the intersecting philosophies of the world’s wisdom traditions.

Welcome, I look forward to working with you.

As a Licensed Professional Counselor, I offer counseling and therapy services via Telehealth, to adult persons in Arizona and Washington State. I've been working in the field for over 20 years, and have found in the last 10, that for most people, the online option has worked just as well as in person. It provides convenience, accessibility, and a more comfortable setting for my clients to be more open and engaged.
