PMHNP, 20 years of experience
Welcome to Arizona Inner Peace for Women PLLC, which provides medication management to women in Arizona. My name is Cheryl Ross and I am a dedicated Psychiatric and Women’s health Nurse Practitioner, committed to providing compassionate and effective mental healthcare for women during challenging stages of life. I specialize in medication management for depression, anxiety, Attention deficit disorder, relationship issues, role change anxiety, premenstrual mood changes, peri-menopausal mood changes, post-partum depression, grief, and sleep disorders. I have additional training in maternal mental health. Our visits will take place from my private office to the comfort of your home via a secure virtual platform. I offer convenient hours, including evenings if needed, to accommodate my patient’s life schedules. I am not a therapist but will help you find a therapist specialized in your area of need I do not take cash pay patients.
In our first session together, we'll start with introductions and discuss what brings you to treatment. We will complete a full medical and mental health history so that I can take care of you as a whole person. We will review any medications you are taking now or in the past, and how these medications affected you, including adverse reactions. We will discuss any counseling or therapy you have tried and how it worked for you. If you don't presently have a therapist we will find one with specialized training that meets your needs.
Throughout my career, one of my strengths has always been my ability to relate to people from many diverse backgrounds. I have had the fortune to work throughout the country as a Nurse Officer in The United States Public Health Service and The Indian Health Service. If you were to ask a colleague what my greatest strength is, it would be that my patients love me.
I specialize in providing medication management for women over the age of 18, focusing on the unique challenges that women often face. I have received additional training in maternal mental health through Perinatal Support International. I offer telehealth visits to clients throughout the state of Arizona. Please note that I do not currently see patients, with diagnosis of bipolar disorder or schizophrenia or those designated as SMI (seriously mentally ill) or clients dealing with addictions, as I believe they require in-person care.
My focus is on women's mental health primarily medication management along with psychoeducation around the patient's diagnosis and medication. I believe therapy and medication management are both an integral part of growth and healing. If a patient does not have a therapist I will assist them in finding one.

Cheryl is one of those rare people who makes you feel truly seen and cared for. Her warmth and authenticity create a space that feels safe, steady, and deeply supportive. She doesn’t put on a clinical front—she’s real with you, and that makes it so much easier to open up. Her motherly presence is grounding and comforting, and I always leave our sessions feeling understood, reassured, and genuinely taken care of. I’m so grateful to have her in my corner.
