Dr. Monica Dyer
Psychiatric Nurse Practitioner, DNP, MPH, FNP, PMHNP
As a Psychiatric-Mental Health and Family Nurse Practitioner, my passion is helping people feel seen, supported, and understood during some of the most challenging moments of their lives. I believe that healing happens through connection, honesty, and safe space, and my goal is to offer care that feels grounded, collaborative, and genuinely human. I am so grateful to work with people experiencing depression, anxiety, PTSD, ADHD, substance use disorders, bipolar disorder, psychosis, and many other mental health struggles. I provide both medication management and supportive therapeutic care.
For patients healing from trauma, I also offer Accelerated Resolution Therapy, a gentle approach that helps people move forward without being overwhelmed by their past. My background includes street medicine, community health, and international humanitarian work, all of which have shaped my respect for the resilience and complexity of the human experience.
I strive to understand your story—not just your symptoms—and to partner with you in creating a plan that aligns with your needs, values, and goals. To heal, we need to feel safe, heard, and empowered. You don’t have to navigate this alone. I’m here to walk with you, support you, and help you rediscover hope, strength, and stability on your path forward.

Tiffany Ziegler
Licensed Professional Counselor, LPC
My experience working in schools and higher level of care allows me to work closely with children or adolescents who may be experiencing anxiety, depression, bullying, or divorce. I bring playfulness and curiosity to the sessions to give them practical tools to utilize while also giving them a space to drop everything and express their feelings. Adolescence is hard and working to build emotional regulation and identification and develop coping skills can make it feel a little lighter.

Grand Prairie sits squarely between Dallas and Fort Worth, a diverse working- and middle-class city with strong Latino and Black communities, aerospace and manufacturing employers, and a long entertainment strip of racing, ballparks, and theme attractions. Its mental health needs mirror the DFW mid-cities generally — family and economic stress, demand for Spanish-language care, and reliance on the metroplex's larger therapy markets on either side. Local community providers and telehealth bridge the access gap.
