Online Psychiatric Nurse Practitioners in Colorado: Provider Comparison Guide
Colorado patients using MindCareHub currently have five Psychiatric Nurse Practitioner profiles to compare.
That makes this page most useful as a comparison resource, rather than another general explanation of telehealth.
Current Colorado PMHNPs
| Provider | Credentials | Selected specialties currently shown | Profile |
|---|---|---|---|
| Albert Quainoo | PMHNP-BC | Addiction, Alcohol Use, Anger Management | Profile |
| Ekei Mbukpa | PMHNP-BC | Bipolar Disorder, Coping Skills, Emotional Disturbance | Profile |
| Dr. Kaleigh Hecht | DNP, PMHNP-BC | Addiction, Alcohol Use, Bipolar Disorder | Profile |
| Mabel Rodriguez | PMHNP-BC | Addiction, Anger Management, Antisocial Personality | Profile |
| Nicole Diaz | PMHNP-BC | Anger Management, Behavioral Issues, Coping Skills | Profile |
MindCareHub’s current Colorado directory represents 34 specialties overall.
Start With Service Type
Ask what you actually want from psychiatric care.
Evaluation
Are you looking for an initial psychiatric assessment?
Medication management
Are you already taking psychiatric medication or looking for a provider whose practice includes medication-related treatment?
Ongoing psychotherapy
Are you mainly looking for weekly talk therapy?
These are not automatically the same service.
MindCareHub has a separate guide explaining mental health medication management.
Use Specialty to Narrow the List
Colorado’s represented areas currently include:
- addiction;
- alcohol use;
- autism;
- behavioral issues;
- bipolar disorder;
- BPD;
- chronic relapse;
- developmental disorders;
- dual diagnosis;
- eating disorders;
- grief;
- LGBTQ+;
- medication management;
- mood disorders;
- OCD;
- personality disorders;
- psychosis;
- sleep or insomnia;
- substance use;
- trauma and PTSD.
Specialty availability varies by provider.
Then Check Age Group
A provider may have experience relevant to your concern while not serving your age group.
Always check the individual profile.
This is particularly important when looking for:
- teenagers;
- preteens;
- older adults;
- adult-only psychiatric care.
Treatment Preference Is Not the Same as Specialty
Provider profiles may list approaches such as CBT, motivational interviewing, mindfulness, solution-focused work, person-centered approaches, or trauma-focused care.
Those labels tell you something about how the provider describes their practice.
They do not automatically mean that a structured psychotherapy program is offered.
Ask:
“How do you use this approach in your appointments?”
Example: Comparing Two Colorado Profiles
Albert Quainoo currently lists psychiatric evaluations and medication management and serves Adults. His current MindCareHub states include Colorado.
Nicole Diaz currently lists Colorado as a practice location and describes psychiatric evaluations, medication management, and personalized treatment planning. Her profile currently serves Adults and Elder (65+).
The better match depends on the patient’s age, concern, desired service, treatment preferences, insurance, and other factors.
Insurance Can Narrow Your Shortlist
After identifying clinically relevant profiles, check insurance.
Don’t reverse the order by choosing only based on an insurer logo.
Verify:
- provider;
- exact plan;
- appointment type;
- network status;
- telehealth benefits;
- deductible;
- copay or coinsurance.

What About Prescribing?
PMHNPs may have prescribing authority depending on professional scope and applicable rules, but a medication-management appointment does not guarantee that a medication will be prescribed.

Pro Tip: Use the state directory to build a shortlist, then open the individual profiles side by side. The state page tells you who is available to compare; the profiles tell you whether the actual service fits.
