Getting to know Kelly Schmidt
I approach mental health care with a deep interest in human nature; understanding what motivates our behaviors, thoughts, feelings, and perceptions. My goal is to help patients feel heard and understood, especially those who may not have felt that validation in the past.
My approach is highly collaborative but firmly rooted in evidence. I believe in educating patients on all available options, supporting you in choosing care that fits your unique needs, preferences, and lifestyle. During our appointments, you can expect a relaxed but professional environment infused with humor and light-heartedness.
Specializing in ADHD, depression, anxiety, and OCD, I integrate clinical expertise with supportive guidance. I have extensive experience working with diverse populations, including young adults, middle-aged adults, LGBTQIA+ individuals, and postpartum mothers and parents.
I earned my Doctor of Nursing Practice from the University of Arizona and hold Bachelor's degrees in both Philosophy and Nursing from the University of Delaware. Over the past 8 years, I have worked across diverse psychiatric settings, caring for patients of all ages, diagnoses, and backgrounds.
When it comes to working with patients, my mantra is, "If you like it, I love it; if it's not broken, don't fix it." There is nothing more rewarding to me than seeing patients reach their full potential and make progress in ways that are deeply and personally meaningful to them.
Passionate about women's health and empowerment, I also care deeply about supporting children from disadvantaged backgrounds and have spent time volunteering at the Tennyson Center for Children.
What should a new client know about working with you?
A quick note on insurance: I know navigating insurance plans and copays can be confusing, so I want to be upfront about coverage before you book. I’m in-network with most health insurance plans, but I want to make sure there are no surprises when it comes to billing.
At this time, I’m not in-network with Medicaid plans, including Health First Colorado (Colorado Medicaid) — even if they’re combined with another type of insurance. Due to state regulations, I’m unable to see patients with Medicaid coverage.
If your insurance card lists your plan as a Community Plan, it is a Medicaid-sponsored health plan and is not accepted at our practice.
I truly wish I could treat everyone, but unfortunately, some types of coverage prevent me from providing care. If this applies to you, I completely understand how frustrating that may be and encourage you to check with your plan for in-network providers who can meet your needs.
