Nicole Guzman, MSN, APRN, PMHNP-BC
Founder & CEO, Anchor Psychiatry
“Effective psychiatric care starts with truly hearing the patient’s story — and making sure they feel heard.”
Nicole Guzman (previously practicing as Nicole Kaiser) is a board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner and the Founder and CEO of Anchor Psychiatry. She brings a deeply human, patient-centered approach to mental health treatment — one rooted in listening, respect, and evidence-based practice.
Many individuals seeking care for anxiety and depression have felt rushed, dismissed, or misunderstood in the past. Nicole’s goal is to change that experience entirely — creating a space where patients feel heard, seen, and actively involved in their own treatment.
With experience caring for diverse patient populations of all ages, Nicole provides thoughtful psychiatric evaluation and medication management tailored to each individual’s needs. She takes a genuinely collaborative approach to treatment planning, recognizing that no two patients — and no two journeys — are the same.
Nicole is also passionate about the intersection of mental health, metabolic health, and overall well-being. Through Anchor Psychiatry, she offers compassionate medical weight management services using evidence-based treatments, always without judgment.
As a Texas-based provider rooted in Rockwall and serving the greater Dallas-Fort Worth area via telehealth, Nicole is committed to making high-quality psychiatric care accessible, ethical, and genuinely human. Anchor Psychiatry reflects her belief that mental health care should feel supportive, empowering, and like it was made for you.
Frequently asked questions
Do I need to come in person?
No. Anchor Psychiatry is entirely virtual. All appointments are conducted via secure, HIPAA-compliant video — all you need is a smartphone, tablet, or computer with a camera. We serve patients throughout Texas.
What insurance do you accept?
We are proud to accept Medicare, along with Blue Cross Blue Shield, Cigna, Aetna, and Optum/UnitedHealth. If you're unsure whether your specific plan is in-network, email us at NicoleGuzman@anchor-psychiatry.com and we'll verify your benefits before your first appointment.
What ages do you treat?
We treat adolescents and adults ages 10 and older. If you're a parent seeking care for your child or teenager, we're happy to discuss whether our practice is the right fit.
What happens at my first appointment?
Your first visit is a comprehensive psychiatric evaluation — typically 45 to 60 minutes. We'll discuss your symptoms, personal history, goals, and any previous treatments. You'll leave with a clear understanding of your diagnosis (if applicable) and a personalized treatment plan.
Do you prescribe controlled substances?
Yes, when clinically appropriate. We follow all Texas and federal guidelines for prescribing, including registration with the Texas Prescription Drug Monitoring Program (PDMP). We take a careful, evidence-based approach to controlled substance prescribing.

You can book online through our patient portal, text us at 972-630-0222 (calling works too!), or email us at NicoleGuzman@anchor-psychiatry.com. Provider referrals can be sent to Referrals@anchor-psychiatry.com.
What if I'm in a mental health emergency?
If you or someone you know is in immediate danger, please call 911 or go to your nearest emergency department. You can also call or text the 988 Suicide & Crisis Lifeline. Anchor Psychiatry is not an emergency or crisis service.
What our patients say
I'd been putting off getting help for years. I thought I just needed to push through. Nicole listened to everything without rushing me — and for the first time, I actually felt like someone understood what I was experiencing.
The telehealth format was a game-changer for me. I have three kids and getting to an office just wasn't realistic. Being able to meet with Nicole from my own home made all the difference.
My daughter was struggling and I didn't know where to turn. Anchor Psychiatry got us in quickly, and the care has been thoughtful and consistent. I finally feel like we have the right support.
I was nervous about starting medication. Nicole walked me through everything — what to expect, what to watch for — and checked in regularly. That level of attention means everything.
I'd tried other providers before. The difference here is that Nicole actually takes time to get to know you. This isn't a conveyor belt. It's real care.
