onathan Frank, PMHNP-BC, provides compassionate psychiatric care specializing in adult ADHD, mood disorders, and LGBTQ+ mental health. Offering patient-centered therapy and medication management for adults in Phoenix, AZ. Now accepting new patients. Dr. Bre Chamoff, DNP, PMHNP-BC, CPRP Bre (like the cheese) Chamoff (She/Her) is triple board certified in pediatric primary care, pediatric critical care, and psychiatric mental health. She has been a nurse practitioner for nearly a decade working in various pediatric settings. She is passionate about care for kids, adolescents, and young adults. Her prescribing philosophy is meds are not first line, unless they absolutely need to be. The team effort between provider and patient is to get that spark back, let your beams shine bright, and use all options to get there. She commonly says her “drug of choice” is human connection, and this certainly bodes well for fostering a team approach with her patients to make a plan that suits them. Bre has worked in pediatric GI specializing in illnesses such as irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) and functional constipation and how those are experienced both physically and emotionally. She has a particular interest in brain-gut connections and the impact on mental health and behavior. She was also one of the first 2 nurse practitioners who started the pediatric trauma program at Queens Medical Center in Hawaii. She has since spent much of her time working inpatient at Flagstaff Medical Center on general pediatrics and in the pediatric ICU. She has a blunt and comical (mostly when appropriate) approach, because life is hard and no one gets out alive. Bre currently resides in Flagstaff, AZ. In her free time, you can find Bre Snowboarding , traveling to live music to any number of bands including Tool, Gojira, Daughter, Carina Round, Rainbow Kitten Surprise, System of a Down, Elton John, Bon Iver, Puscifer, Primus or Tim McGraw (to name an eclectic few), reading books galore, or begging her friends to play board games with her. She has a ’73 VW bus named Clementine (who sometimes starts and sometimes does not start, but Clementine’s charm is not dependent on her reliability, or the lack thereof) and a 6 yo Bengal named Ananda, who runs the show entirely. As you’ll note in Bre’s Q&A she is verbose and rarely lacking the words she needs to overly express her interests and ideas with many caveats and sidebars. She offers both an apology and congratulations for this. Pediatric Mental Health Bre is an expert in pediatric mental health encompassing ADHD, autism, sensory procesing, mood, anxiety, and trauma. Medical With a background in acute pediatric care, Bre is an excellent resource for kids with co-existing medical conditions or gastrointestinal problems. Adolescent Mental Health Teenagers can be hard to connect with -- but they will appreciate Bre's humor and energy and may (well, hopefully) look forward to visits with her. Dr. Chamoff, in Flagstaff, is an exceptionally competent psychiatrist who has greatly aided me in managing my mental health condition. From the initial consultation, she conducted a thorough and thoughtful examination of my case. Dr. Chamoff provided clear explanations about the complexities of my situation, considering all possible contextual factors that could be impacting my well-being. She worked with me to develop a tailored plan of action that perfectly aligns with my needs and expectations. Throughout the process, her compassion and encouragement have been invaluable. We have been seeing Dr. Bre virtually for over a year now, and she has been absolutely amazing. I'm always recommending her for other parents struggling with their kiddos and trying to get their kids help. She has been so wonderful for my daughter! Through every up and down, she listens and asks the questions needed. Walks you through a plan and is there if the plan falls through. She's amazing! I see Bre (like the cheese) and I can always count on frank, kind and productive advice and medication recommendations. She cuts through the fluff, and really hones in on the issue, making mental health improvement the goal. My experience had been amazing. Bre is very knowledgeable and really listens and applies her expertise to determine the correct diagnosis and medication treatment. My son is doing amazing and she has made a tremendous positive change in my family. I would recommend her to anyone struggling on how to go about adhd, autistic or any sensory issue diagnosis and treatment for children. The best part is she recommends and prescribes other alternatives instead of placing kids directly on stimulants. Pediatric Mental Health Bre is an expert in pediatric mental health encompassing ADHD, autism, sensory procesing, mood, anxiety, and trauma. Medical With a background in acute pediatric care, Bre is an excellent resource for kids with co-existing medical conditions or gastrointestinal problems. Adolescent Mental Health Teenagers can be hard to connect with -- but they will appreciate Bre's humor and energy and may (well, hopefully) look forward to visits with her.

Meet Melody Martinez, PMHNP-BC, a Tucson-based psychiatric nurse practitioner offering compassionate care with a focus on perinatal mental health, trauma, and holistic treatment approaches. Now accepting new patients for in-person and telehealth services. Melody Martinez, MSN, PMHNP-BC Hi! I’m Melody Martinez, a board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner (PMHNP-BC), dedicated to providing compassionate care across the lifespan. Proudly rooted in Tucson, Arizona, my journey from educator to nurse practitioner has been enriched by a diverse range of experiences, each contributing to my holistic approach to mental health care. My professional journey began with a bachelors degree in education from the University of Arizona, where I specialized in family studies and human development. This foundational education instilled in me a deep understanding of the complexities of human behavior and relationships. Driven by a passion for healthcare and inspired by the profound impact of supporting individuals across various life stages and backgrounds, I transitioned into the field of nursing. After earning my Master of Science in Nursing degree from the University of Arizona, I dedicated several years to providing specialized care to women and infants, honing my skills in nurturing and supporting the unique needs of this population. Motivated by a desire to expand my scope of practice and make a broader impact on mental health care, I pursued advanced training as a psychiatric nurse practitioner. Today, at Paperflower Psychiatry I blend my diverse background in education, nursing, and perinatal care to offer holistic, evidence-based mental health care to individuals seeking support for their mental health concerns. Believing in the benefits of medication, I also incorporate alternative and complementary treatments to address concerns, individualizing each patient's care. My approach is science-backed and empathetically driven. I enjoy including therapy techniques in my sessions when appropriate, to provide comprehensive and personalized care. As a mother of two, I understand the importance of flexibility in scheduling appointments, and I am happy to offer weekend, early morning and evening availability both in person at our new Tucson location and via tele-health sessions. Beyond my professional pursuits, I find joy in exploring new cultures and perspectives through travel. Having lived abroad in various countries, I've cultivated a deep appreciation for diversity and the richness of human experience. My family, which includes my two adventurous sons, holds a special place in my heart. We bond and create enduring memories during our camping trips in the great outdoors. Their unwavering love and support inspire me to make a positive impact in the lives of others, both within my practice and beyond. I am honored to be a part of your healing journey and look forward to supporting you every step of theway. Perinatal Mental Health Melody has extensive experience as a labor and delivery nurse and is passionate about offering safe options for medications during pregnancy and postpartum. Foster Care/Adoption Melody understands adoption and foster care as a traumatic experience as well as the flaws of the system. Anxiety Anxiety can be tough to manage and verbalize - Melody offers excellent options for medication management in cases of high anxiety. Q&A Favorite movie: This is such a difficult question because my first instinct is to write a top 10 list. If I had to choose a favorite based on how many times I have watched it, it would probably be Spirited Away because it's an absolute feast for the senses! The animation is stunning, and the food looks absolutely delicious—I mean, who wouldn't want to taste those mouthwatering dishes from the spirit world? Plus, I'm a huge fan of all of Hayao Miyazaki's films and accompanying soundtracks. Beyond the scrumptious visuals, the story of growth and the healing powers of love are so heartwarming. I love the transformation from a scared little girl to a confident hero while navigating the whimsical and sometimes downright bizarre world of spirits. Favorite superhero: I am not a huge superhero buff but I think I would say Batman, even though it might seem really mainstream. I just feel like despite not possessing superhuman abilities, his dedication to justice and his unwavering commitment to protecting his city make him a true hero. His resilience and determination to overcome his own darkness and trauma, channeling it into a force for good is inspiring. I think we can see it as a reminder that even in our darkest moments, we can find the courage to make a difference in the world. Plus, the movies are really cinematically pleasing! The complex and captivating villains add such a depth to his story. If you could have any superpower, what would it be? If I could have any superpower, I would choose the ability to manipulate matter at the atomic level, much like Atom Eve from the comic series "Invincible." With this power, I could reshape the world around me, transforming objects, creating life-saving medicines, or even altering the fabric of reality itself. The ability to manipulate atoms would give me unparalleled control over the physical universe, allowing me to solve problems, heal wounds, and bring about positive change on a grand scale. It's a power limited only by imagination and ethical considerations, making it both awe-inspiring and profoundly impactful. Favorite bands/singer/music: Music is all about the feelings it creates, so I just go with the flow and let the music take me on a journey through memories and emotions. My taste in music is a bit of a mishmash, but that's what makes it so special! I can always enjoy Indie music from bands like The Strokes, The Killers, and Modest Mouse. But then there is the Dixie Chicks, whose music takes me back to those carefree days of childhood, riding in the car with my mom, her hair blowing in the wind as we sang along with the same CD over and over again. Fleetwood Mac holds a special place in my heart as my ultimate favorite band and soundtrack to my soul. Whenever karaoke is on the table I will be there belting out "Gold Dust Women" with my friends, laughing and singing our hearts out. And when it's time to tackle chores around the house, you can bet I've got the Bluey soundtrack blasting, with my little one dancing around and making a mess behind me. Music is about the memories they bring back and the moments they create, weaving through the fabric of my life and adding color to every day. If you could have three wishes, what would they be? 1. To travel a peaceful world with my loved ones, exploring new cultures, tasting exotic foods, and making unforgettable memories together. 2. To have the ability to speak every language fluently, allowing me to connect with people from all walks of life and forge meaningful relationships wherever I go. 3. To foster a world where every child grows up in a nurturing and supportive environment, free from trauma and adversity; feeling loved, valued, and empowered to chase their dreams. Tell us one fun fact about yourself: One fun fact about me is that I'm passionate about travel and adventure and I find solace in nature. One of the most memorable experiences I've had was attending the Dalai Lama's 80th birthday celebration in India. Another unforgettable journey I embarked on was hitchhiking from Tanzania to Namibia with nothing but a backpack and a tent. It was a remarkable adventure filled with unforgettable sights, fascinating encounters, and a profound sense of freedom! My favorite quote from the trip is, “you can’t camp here, the lions will carry you away in the night.” Tell us about your pets: We welcomed a rescue dog into our family named Juneau. He's been such a blessing and has quickly become a beloved member of our household. Juneau is incredibly sweet and has a gentle disposition, making him the perfect companion for our family, especially with my two young sons. He's always ready for playtime or cuddles, and his loving nature brings so much joy into our lives. We had a dog years ago named Piper but due to her trauma history she needed constant companionship and we could not have two dogs at the time so she went to live with my close friend. I still see her often and she spends every other weekend with Juneau. I am so happy they get to be friends! What are you most passionate about in the mental health field? My passion for perinatal mental health runs deep. Through personal experiences with postpartum depression and anxiety, combined with years of working as an antepartum and postpartum nurse, I've gained invaluable insights into the unique challenges of pregnancy and postpartum. I firmly believe that everyone deserves support during this journey, whether they're basking in the joys of motherhood or grappling with anxiety and depression. I'm committed to destigmatizing mental health conversations in the perinatal period and advocating for accessible support services. This cause is close to my heart, and I'm dedicated to making a positive impact for individuals and families. Let's banish mom guilt and shaming once and for all! What is your philosophy on using medication to treat mental health? Are medications lifelong? Medication can be a valuable tool in managing mental health conditions, but it's not the only solution. I believe in a holistic approach that combines medication with therapy, lifestyle changes, and social support. Maybe medication is right for you or maybe you would benefit from forest bathing or wilderness therapy or acupuncture. There are many paths, lets figure out which one is right for you. Whether medication is lifelong depends on the individual and their unique circumstances. If a patient is nervous about an evaluation, especially when talking about tough things like trauma or sexual abuse, what would you want them to know? I want patients to know that it's okay to feel nervous or apprehensive about discussing tough topics like trauma or abuse and that they can set the pace that they feel comfortable with. Our sessions are a safe and non-judgmental space where they can express themselves openly, and I'm here to support and guide them through the process with compassion and empathy. Tell us your thoughts about the current state of the foster care system. I have seen firsthand both the strengths and shortcomings of the foster system. While there are dedicated individuals working tirelessly to support foster youth, there's a clear need for improvement, particularly in ensuring a smoother transition into adulthood with adequate support and resources. What are other things you feel could be beneficial to improve mental health other than medications? I am a big believer in natures almost magical ability to heal and restore! Spending time outdoors can offer a sense of peace and tranquility that can alleviate stress and improve mood. Practices such as therapy, mindfulness, exercise, nutrition, and social connection also play important roles in promoting mental well-being. I believe it is essential to address mental health from a holistic perspective that considers the various factors influencing an individual's experience. Tell us about the intersection between your experience in Women and Infant care and/or teaching + mental health? My experience in both teaching and women and infant care has given me a unique perspective on the intersection of education and mental health. As a former teacher for 8 years, I've honed my skills in communicating with children in a comfortable and supportive manner. My background in education, with a focus on family studies and human development, has equipped me with valuable insights into the developmental needs of children and families. Transitioning to a role as an antepartum and postpartum nurse, I found that my teaching experience allowed me to better prepare individuals for the profound changes of parenthood. I understand the importance of providing comprehensive support and education to expectant and new parents, not only in terms of physical health but also in addressing the emotional and psychological aspects of pregnancy, childbirth, and early parenthood. My ability to advocate for children and families, coupled with my knowledge of child development and maternal health, allows me to approach mental health issues in a holistic and empathetic manner. I believe in the power of education, communication, and support in promoting mental well-being for individuals and families throughout the perinatal and early childhood stages.

Dr. Erica Lee, DNP, PMHNP-BC, specializes in child and adolescent mental health, including conduct disorders, trauma, ADHD, and anxiety. Offering compassionate care for children, teens, and their families across Arizona. Now accepting new patients. Dr. Erica Lee, DNP, PMHNP-BC, CPNP-BC I'm Erica Lee, a Psychiatric Nurse Practitioner with a deep passion for helping children, teens, and their loved ones navigate the complexities of mental health. With a Doctor of Nursing Practice (DNP) degree from ASU and 13 years of nursing experience, my journey into the field of mental health has been one of continuous growth and learning. Prior to this role, I have spent nine years as a nursing professor, where I honed my skills in making complex concepts accessible and relatable. My own life experiences have given me a profound understanding of the challenges posed by ADHD, trauma, anxiety, depression, and grief. I've walked the path of healing and resilience and am committed to helping others do the same. I'm not just a healthcare provider; I'm a mom of three young adults, and I've experienced the trials and triumphs of parenting firsthand. As a teen mom, before it was 'cool,' I learned the power of determination, education, and support in overcoming obstacles. I understand that idealism is not for everyone, and I do my best to advise and support based on real-life circumstances. In my practice, I specialize in teaching and connecting with my patients in a relatable way. I believe that understanding and empathy are the cornerstones of effective care. I'm dedicated to creating a safe and nurturing environment for children and teens to explore their mental well-being. I am open-minded and fully committed to providing care that respects and honors individual experiences. As a passionate queer ally, I firmly believe in inclusivity and creating a safe, accepting space for all individuals, regardless of their sexual orientation or gender identity. My journey is a testament to the belief that, with the right support and guidance, individuals can overcome adversity and find their path to wellness.

Q&A What is your favorite movie? The Royal Tenenbaums If you could have a superpower, what superpower would you pick? Telekinesis Favorite bands/singer? Run the Jewels, David Bowie, Phantogram, the Yeah Yeah Yeahs, Beck If you had 3 wishes, what would you wish for? •     Everyone has to follow the same rules that nurses do (do no harm, treat everyone equally, advocate for all, don’t spread infection). •     Climate change to be resolved in a way that is sustainable and equitable. •     Leaders who operate for the good of all Tell us a fun fact about yourself. I'm a decent karaoke rapper. What are you most passionate about in the mental health field? Helping families through difficult situations and things that no one wants to talk about. I have learned from my experience raising three kids and I know it didn’t have to be as hard as it was, had I known more and understood how my own trauma impacted my parenting style. Tell us about your dogs. Koko (12 yo GSP), Cromwell (6 yo pit mix) and Bowie (3 yo pocket American Bully). It’s hard to describe how much these pups mean to me, but they are my besties and have kept me company through the hardest time in my life. They each have their own quirks and personalities and should have their own reality show. Thoughts on adult ADHD? Many people have struggled their whole life, believing that what made things difficult was laziness or lack of discipline. They do not know that things don’t have to be so hard. I believe that ADHD should be included in the differential for adults who have difficulty with organization, motivation, concentration, etc. and considered along with CPTSD, anxiety, and depression. Are medications lifelong? think that medication can be life-changing in many cases, but I also know that other actions can be just as, if not more, effective. I aim to educate my patients on various solutions so that they are able to make informed decisions and feel open to receiving/sharing feedback when something isn’t working. I don’t believe medication has to be lifelong and should be reassessed regularly and discontinued when no longer needed. What are other things you feel could be beneficial to improve mental health other than medications? Self-talk is a huge factor that I continue to explore with my own mental health. It is so important to recognize the way that your thoughts shape your mental health and be intentional about speaking kindly to yourself. Do you have any personal experiences regarding mental health you are open to sharing? I have experienced trauma, homelessness, abuse, anxiety, depression, and complex grief. I have loved ones who have experienced addiction, bipolar, ADHD. I utilize these experiences to identify with others, and I also believe that this helps me keep bias in check. What is your philosophy on using medication to treat mental health for kids? I absolutely believe that medication can be an appropriate intervention for kids, and the impact it can have for families is undeniable. I don’t believe it is the only answer in every situation and I am comfortable suggesting/discussing alternatives with parents. Do you have experience in working with non-binary and trans kids? Yes - in my experience learning at Paperflower, Phoenix Children’s, and CRS, I have worked with kids who identify as trans, non-binary, and gender-fluid. I feel comfortable helping parents navigate this and can also hold space for the conflict they might feel. Ultimately, we need to advocate for our patients and help their family learn to support them. What are your thoughts on screen time and social media for kids and teens? I’m learning to understand the impact that screen time and social media has on humans, including the dopamine dysregulation that comes from nearly non-stop screen time during waking hours. I think that it’s a complex topic from a kid’s point of view and may even be their social lifeline. I think it is important for parents to know that using screen time and social media as a reward/punishment has a greater impact than they might imagine and that setting boundaries up front and revisiting them at regular intervals is important. How do you feel about medical marijuana? I wish there was more opportunity to research cannabis and other traditional plant medicines to help guide their use for mental and medical indications. Current American policy prevents adequate research and is influenced by pharmaceutical industries, who are motivated to keep these highly regulated. If a patient is nervous about an evaluation, especially when talking about tough things like trauma or sexual abuse, what would you want them to know? I would want my patients to know they can share as much or as little as they want with me. Explaining this is important up front, and I might even use tools like a signal or safe word that the client can utilize to let me know it's too much.
