Divine Soul Mental Health Services exists for one reason: to make compassionate, evidence-based psychiatric care available to every person who needs it — regardless of background, income, or circumstance.
To deliver outstanding, compassionate mental health care that treats the whole person — mind, body, and soul — using evidence-based practices that empower and uplift every individual we serve.
A Las Vegas where no one faces a mental health crisis alone — and where the quality of care you receive is never determined by your zip code, your insurance plan, or your ability to pay.
What we believe — and how we show it
No judgment. Ever.
Every patient walks in carrying something heavy. We meet them with warmth, not clinical distance.
Mind, body, and soul — together.
Mental health doesn't exist in isolation. We treat the whole person, because that's where real healing happens.
Care that removes its own barriers.
Flexible scheduling, telehealth across Nevada, and major insurance acceptance aren't perks — they're non-negotiables.
The standard every patient deserves.
25+ years of experience, dual board certifications, and ongoing academic work at UNLV — the floor for every visit.
You will feel known.
From your first message to your ongoing care, you will never feel like a file. You will feel known.
Ready when you are. No pressure.
We respond to new patient requests within the hour during business hours.
"My goal is to make sure you never feel alone in this. From your first message to your ongoing care, we're here with you every step of the way."
