Alice Webb

Pyschiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner

Hi, I’m Alice Webb. I’m a psychiatric mental health nurse practitioner and the owner of this practice. I diagnose and treat mental health conditions. This includes prescriptions, supplement recommendations, brief therapy, and referrals to other providers in the community. I prioritize understanding who you are and what makes you “tick” over a prescription or a diagnosis.

I’ve been a nurse for 24 years; with experience in NICU, school nursing, surgery, ICU, long-term care, eating disorder treatment, hospice, nursing education, home health, and inpatient psychiatry. I consider nursing a calling; it has roughed me up, but it has also opened my heart and served me in so many ways. I wouldn’t have it any other way. I am passionate about women’s health and increasing affordable acces to healthcare services. I’ve lived and worked in Tucson since 1997.

My interest in psychiatry comes from curiosity about the mind-body connection and my own mental health experiences. In my career, I’ve seen integrative approaches in hospice and eating disorder care promote healing for both body and mind. It is exciting to see how current scientific research supports this phenomenon. I have seen how helping people access their own mind/body connection can lead to insight regarding what they need and want to stay in balance.

As a psych NP, I believe that medication is only part of a much bigger mosaic that makes up your mental health. I encourage my patients through education and collaborative planning to figure out how you can build upon what is already working and then helping you find things that can add to your mental health; movement, supplements, dietary change, more play, psychotherapy, deepening and/or finding supportive relationships and practicing self compassion and acceptance. And perhaps we’ll find something else that is best for you!

My personal mosaic? I find balance and healing through being in natural environments, feeling strong and joyful through movement, traditional Chinese medicine, my relationships, trying not to take myself too seriously and a little help from chemistry. I prioritize having fun and connecting with the people I love and enjoy. I take my ADHD stimulant every morning and practice Qigong next to my favorite tree—I want to help you find your own effective “combos” for wellbeing.

Outside work, I enjoy baking, yin yoga, hiking, spending time with family and friends, and exploring Arizona’s natural beauty. I will never stop “squeeing” at the sight of wildflowers, the thrill of encountering a gila monster or the first hint of monsoon clouds on the horizon. I love a good Twilight meme-I am Team Charlie, if you’re curious. I drink way more Coke Zero than anyone should-but it’s just so tasty! And yes-I want to see pictures of your children, your vacations, and your adorable animals.
