Getting to know Mandi Spens
MANDI SPENS, PMHNP-BC — Nevada Board-Certified Psychiatric–Mental Health Nurse Practitioner she is dedicated to helping individuals achieve emotional balance, strengthen coping skills, and improve overall mental well-being through compassionate, evidence-based psychiatric care.

What should a new client know about working with you?
My role is to provide a clear psychiatric evaluation and medication management tailored to your individual needs. If medication is appropriate, I will carefully review options, discuss benefits and side effects, and monitor your response over time.
My goal is to help you feel stable, focused, and functional through thoughtful, evidence-based psychiatric care in a supportive and professional environment.
What is your typical process for working with clients?
Your first visit includes a comprehensive psychiatric evaluation and review of your medical and mental health history. If medication is indicated, we will develop a treatment plan together.
Follow-up visits focus on medication monitoring, symptom management, and ongoing adjustment to ensure the safest and most effective results. All visits are conducted through secure telepsychiatry or in person when available.

This was the first time I've been open with a doctor about my mental health so I was really nervous. But she made me so comfortable. She actually listened to me and was so kind. Definitely recommend her to anyone who might be looking for some help.

Mandi was there for me after dealing with an issue of medical abandonment and helped me stay on track with my medication. Went beyond the scope of meeting basic needs and was willing to work with my therapist to ensure the highest quality of care was observed. An empathetic listener with empowering bedside manner. Would recommend for any patient.

I thoroughly enjoyed my appointment! It was my first time meeting with Mandi so we had a lot of background to cover and I felt like she asked the right questions and listened to what I had to say. I’m excited to continue working with her.

I’ve been struggling with alcohol addiction due to anxiety for the past three years. But I’m incredibly grateful to Mandi Spens—when I met her, I finally felt that my life could get better.
With her support, I was able to stop drinking, and she prescribed medication that has truly helped manage my anxiety.
Thanks to Mandi’s guidance, I now see hope and progress in my life every single day. I also want to thank the front office team at Journey Psyche—they’ve always been kind, accommodating, and consistently kept me updated.
More power to all of you!
