Venessa Thompson

Psychiatric Mental Health NP

Virtual & in-person • 11 mi away • Phoenix, AZ


My approach to care integrates psychotherapy with medication management. I provide therapy for patients whose psychiatric medications I also manage, allowing for a coordinated and personalized treatment plan that supports both emotional and medical aspects of mental health.

With over 20 years of experience as a Women’s Health Nurse Practitioner and now as a Psychiatric Nurse Practitioner, I am deeply committed to delivering compassionate, comprehensive care tailored to each individual’s unique needs. My approach integrates physical and mental health to support the whole person.

I specialize in:

  • Mental health evaluations and medication management
  • Medication-Assisted Treatment (MAT) for substance use disorders
  • Gender-affirming hormone therapy

I am dedicated to creating a safe, respectful space where all individuals feel heard, supported, and empowered on their journey to wellness.

Sleep is one of the most vital components of both mental and physical well-being. I’m passionate about helping people improve their sleep quality through evidence-based, personalized care. I provide in-depth diagnosis and treatment for a wide range of sleep disorders, with a special focus on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy for Insomnia (CBT-I)—the gold standard, non-medication approach to treating chronic insomnia. Whether you're struggling to fall asleep, stay asleep, or wake up feeling refreshed, I’m here to help you reclaim restful, restorative sleep.

You can contact me at [email protected] with questions.

Therapist

Virtual & in-person • 8.1 mi away • Phoenix, AZ


Hello! I'm Brigett and I'm accepting new clients.

Taking the first step toward healing can feel overwhelming, but you don’t have to walk this path alone. I am a dedicated therapist passionate about helping individuals process trauma, navigate complex emotions, and reclaim their inner strength. In our work together, we won’t just talk about what’s happening in your mind—we will look at the whole picture. I specialize in nervous system regulation, helping you move out of constant survival mode (like feeling perpetually anxious, overwhelmed, or shut down) and back into a state of safety and balance.

My goal is to create a warm, collaborative, and entirely judgment-free space where you feel truly heard. Together, we will uncover the why behind your patterns, giving you the insights and practical tools you need to feel deeply empowered and connected to your true self.

How we can connect: I currently offer flexible, convenient virtual sessions so you can begin your healing journey from the comfort of your home. Starting in July, I will be welcoming clients for in-person sessions [Phoenix @ Northern/51] on Fridays.

Wherever you are starting from today, please know that healing is possible, and you are entirely capable of it. I look forward to supporting you.
