✨Meet Chuck Bradley, PMHNP-BC at SMHWI Arizona ✨

After a career in media, Chuck felt called to make a greater impact and transitioned into nursing. He graduated summa cm laude from Texas Tech University Health Science Center in 2015 and later completed his PMHNP training at Walden University in 2022.

With experience treating conditions like depression, anxiety, PTSD, ADHD, OCD, schizophrenia, bipolar disorder, and substance use, Chuck is known for his empathetic communication, holistic approach, and dedication to helping patients improve their lives.
