Getting to know Kimberly Smith
I am a dual-certified Family Nurse Practitioner (FNP) and Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner (PMHNP), a military veteran, with over 10 years of nursing experience and more than 5 years in advanced practice. I believe mental health care should feel thoughtful, collaborative, and unhurried—not transactional.
I take time to understand the whole picture, connecting symptoms to stress, sleep, hormones, and life stage rather than focusing on medications alone. I work with adults experiencing depression, anxiety, focus-related symptoms, and stress or burnout, particularly high-functioning professionals and caregivers navigating demanding roles.
My approach emphasizes clarity, education, and shared decision-making. Medications are used thoughtfully and conservatively, as one tool within a broader plan that supports long-term well-being. Patients often share that they feel heard, validated, and supported with practical next steps—not just a prescription—in a calm, respectful environment.
Insurance & Payment:
I accept most major insurances through Headway (United, Aetna, Cigna, Anthem/BCBS, etc.)
Cash-pay options are available
Telehealth appointments available for Colorado residents.
Next Steps:

What should a new client know about working with you?
New clients should know that working with me is collaborative, thoughtful, and unrushed. I take time to understand the full picture of what’s going on—connecting symptoms to stress, sleep, life stage, and overall health rather than focusing on medications alone. My goal is to help you feel heard, informed, and supported, with clear explanations and practical next steps. Medications are used thoughtfully and conservatively, always with shared decision-making.
Working with me is collaborative and calm. I take a whole-person approach, emphasize education and shared decision-making, and focus on practical next steps—not just prescriptions.
What is your typical process for working with clients?
My process begins with a comprehensive initial evaluation focused on understanding your symptoms, mental health history, medical background, and current life stressors. I take time to look beyond surface-level concerns and consider how factors such as stress, sleep patterns, workload, and life stage may be contributing to what you’re experiencing.
Based on this discussion, we work together to develop a personalized treatment plan that aligns with your goals and values. My approach emphasizes education and shared decision-making so you understand your options and feel confident in the plan we create. When medication is appropriate, it is prescribed thoughtfully and conservatively, as one part of a broader, whole-person approach to care.
Follow-up visits are used to monitor progress, review how interventions are working, and make adjustments as needed. The goal is ongoing, supportive care that evolves over time and helps you build clarity, stability, and long-term well-being in a calm, respectful environment.

Out-of-pocket fees and assistance
Initial session: $250 for 75 minutes
Ongoing session: $115 for 30 minutes
- 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 accept most major insurance plans through Headway, which manages billing and claims on my behalf. If your insurance is accepted, you’ll only be responsible for your standard copay, coinsurance, or deductible at the time of your visit—just as you would with any other in-network provider.
For patients using self-pay, I offer straightforward, transparent pricing, and payment is collected at the time of service.
If you’re unsure about your coverage, my team (through Headway) can verify your benefits before your first appointment and help answer any questions about costs. My goal is to make the payment process as simple and stress-free as possible so you can focus on your care.
