Michelle Schroeder, NP, PMHNP-BC

Michelle Schroeder, PMHNP-BC serves as a board-certified Psychiatric Nurse Practitioner at Desert Clover Psychiatry, where she originally trained in the clinic’s student preceptor program. Over the past nine years, she has cared for individuals with serious mental illness in both inpatient and outpatient settings, with a focus on compassionate, evidence-based treatment. Motivated by personal experience—including her mother’s struggle with alcoholism—Michelle integrates empathy and clinical expertise to guide patients toward meaningful progress and improved well-being. Her seven years in hospice care further broadened her perspective on comprehensive patient support.

Outside of her professional responsibilities, Michelle is part of a blended family with four children and has been a surrogate three times.

Through her commitment to holistic mental health care and her warm, uplifting approach, Michelle fosters an environment of hope and resilience for everyone she serves.
