Diane Richardson, APRN

Diane Richardson, APRN

Adult Psychiatric & Mental Health Nurse Practitioner
UT
I am a psychiatric nurse practitioner and the owner of BrainChem Psychiatry, an online/telepsychiatry practice in Utah. I offer online appointments for new consultations and follow up monitoring for medication management of mental health concerns. I believe that mental and physical health are connected, and I have a passion for educating my clients to recognize potential physical disadvantages that may be limiting their ability to manage their mood and behavior or stay motivated to succeed. Psychotherapy and self-help methods, while important, can be difficult to work through, especially if excessive stress, genetics, or other factors have left us with a disruption in the natural balance and flow of normal processes and communications in the brain and nervous system. For those who experience mental health struggles despite their best efforts and intentions, additional evidence-based treatment options such as medications, supplements, or dietary changes can be very beneficial and provide greater rates of remission and relief. I provide virtual sessions for consultation, diagnosis, medication prescriptions, and follow-up. I strive to reduce misconceptions and stigmas associated with these physical treatments and provide my clients with the knowledge and tools available through science to give them their best chance at recovery and wellness. I do not offer formal psychotherapy but do encourage a combined treatment and will collaborate with your therapist as appropriate.

In-network insurances

Diane Richardson, APRN is not in-network with any insurances

It’s common for mental health providers to be out-of-network. Many insurance plans offer out-of-network coverage, so you may get partially reimbursed. Learn more

Out-of-pocket fees and assistance
  • Files your insurance claim: You pay the session fee upfront and the provider files the claim for you, so you can get reimbursed directly without worrying about the paperwork
  • Charges post-reimbursement amount: This provider will only charge you for the amount you pay after you get reimbursed from your insurance plan, so you don’t need to pay the session fee upfront

More information on payments and coverage

I am in-network with United Healthcare/Optum Behavioral, Aetna, and University of Utah Health Plans. I am in the process of becoming in-network with Regence BCBS of Utah, Cigna/Evernorth Behavioral, SelectHealth, and Triwest. If your insurance is not in-network, I can accept credit card payments and provide a superbill for you to attempt to be reimbursed by your insurance for out-of-network care. I provide some discounts for those who are uninsured.
