Hannah Parrish, Nurse Practitioner

Hannah Parrish, PMHNP Hannah Parrish is a Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner in Arizona who has been practicing since January 2023. Hannah’s passion to become a Psychiatric-Mental Health Nurse Practitioner began at an early age after losing a friend to suicide. A wonderful organization was developed by the parents of Hannah’s friend to help raise awareness for mental health and the stigma associated with it. Being able to openly talk about depression and suicide at such a young age enlightened Hannah about the invisible struggles that people experience. This experience gave Hannah the desire to pursue a career in the field of mental health. Hannah has five years of experience as an intensive care, and emergency room nurse, which has given her a solid foundation to provide client-centered care. The emergency room provided Hannah the opportunity to work with the mental health population within the emergency department, which grew her love and desire of helping those in crisis. Hannah believes teamwork makes the dream work, and she strives to achieve this level of teamwork with her patients. Hannah’s goal as a provider is to help remove the stigma associated with mental health and make the world a better, more accepting place. Outside of the workplace, Hannah enjoys spending time with family and friends. She loves to travel and be outdoors, but also loves a good game night or movie night in. When she has some down time, she loves to dive into a great book or do some baking.

Kia Watkins, Psychologist

Dr. Kia A. Watkins, Psy.D. is a licensed clinical psychologist providing individual psychotherapy to adults ages 18–65+. She specializes in the treatment of depression, anxiety, post-traumatic stress, grief and bereavement, existential and developmental transitions across adulthood, relational and attachment-based difficulties, and challenges related to identity development and integration as well as self-understanding. Dr. Watkins’ clinical approach is deeply integrative and relational, grounded in Gestalt therapy, Adlerian psychology, existential and humanistic traditions, object relations theory, and decolonial and multicultural frameworks. While firmly rooted in evidence-based practice, her work is dynamic and responsive—attuned to the emotional, relational, cultural, and embodied dimensions of each client’s lived experience. She has extensive training and experience working with multicultural and historically marginalized communities. Dr. Watkins integrates cross-cultural and decolonized psychology with empirically supported interventions and, when relevant, thoughtfully incorporates spirituality and religious meaning systems as sources of resilience, grounding, and embodied healing. Her areas of focus include complex and cumulative trauma, complicated and disenfranchised grief, existential depression and anxiety, acute and chronic stress conditions, identity concerns, and psychological distress related to race-based, ancestral, and systemic trauma, including the impact of structural violence on BIPOC individuals and communities. Dr. Watkins fosters a collaborative and trusting therapeutic environment, approaching clinical work with presence, creativity, and compassion. She values deeply understanding how clients make sense of their experiences, the adaptive strategies they have developed over time, and the motivations shaping their lives—supporting growth that extends beyond symptom reduction toward greater agency, coherence, and lived authenticity. When she isn’t working or engaged in clinical scholarship, Dr. Watkins finds grounding and joy in writing poetry, reading books on history, philosophy, and culture, lingering in cozy coffee shops, composing music, traveling with friends, and spending long hours on video calls with her nieces and nephews—especially when the Ohio State Buckeyes beat the Michigan Wolverines (as they should).
