Karla Lamley

Karla Lamley

Psychiatric Mental Health NP

Virtual • Arizona


Working with Karla is a deeply collaborative and compassionate experience. Karla brings over 35years of integrative clinical expertise in both internal medicine and psychiatry, paired with a lifelong commitment to spiritual growth and cultural reverence. Clients often describe her presence as grounding, intuitive, and nonjudgmental.

Karla takes a whole-person approach—honoring your body, mind, heart, and spirit. Whether you’re seeking support for anxiety, depression, trauma, chronic illness, spiritual crisis, or transformation, she will meet you exactly where you are with insight, warmth, and clarity. Sessions may weave together evidence-based psychiatric care, somatic and mindfulness practices, nutritional support, and, when appropriate, psychedelic-assisted therapies.

As a certified provider in psychedelic medicine and a graduate of the Integrative Psychiatry Institute’s fellowship, Karla is trained to work at the leading edge of healing—while staying deeply rooted in respect for ancient indigenous traditions. She creates safe, sacred containers where clients can reconnect with their innate wisdom, move through trauma, and reclaim their sense of wholeness.

Most importantly, Karla sees you not as a diagnosis—but as a divine being having a human experience. If you are ready to step into deeper healing and self-remembering, she is here to walk with you.

Renata Rhodes

Psychiatric Mental Health NP

Virtual • Arizona


If you’re the one everyone depends on but you feel anxious, burned out, or emotionally drained, you don’t have to keep pushing through alone. I work with adults who are high-functioning on the outside but overwhelmed on the inside, especially women, professionals, parents, caregivers, and veterans navigating anxiety, depression, trauma, ADHD, burnout, and major life transitions.

I’m a board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner with a Master of Science in Nursing (MSN) and over 20 years of experience across diverse healthcare settings. As a veteran, I bring personal understanding of military culture and chronic stress. My approach is collaborative, culturally responsive, and judgment-free, blending evidence-based medication management with supportive, real-world conversation.

If you’re looking for care that feels thoughtful, respectful, and tailored to your life, not rushed or one-size-fits-all, invite you to schedule a consultation and take the first step toward feeling more grounded and supported.
