Bonmente Brings Telepsychiatry Services to Arizona, Tackling Mental Health Access Crisis
Technology-powered mental healthcare provider expands to Arizona, aiming to reduce provider shortages and long wait times across the state.
Phoenix, AZ Bonmente, a fast-growing telepsychiatry provider known for its tech-enabled and clinician-led model of mental healthcare, has officially announced its expansion into the state of Arizona. This move is set to offer vital psychiatric services to thousands of underserved residents, particularly in rural and tribal areas where access has historically been limited.
Arizona’s mental health system faces serious challenges, with long wait times, lack of trained professionals, and geographic limitations compounding the burden on individuals seeking care. With more than 1.3 million adults—approximately 20% of the state’s population—reporting some form of mental illness, and 65% of counties designated as Mental Health Professional Shortage Areas (HPSAs), the need for scalable and reliable solutions is urgent.
Bonmente’s entry into Arizona aims to directly address this gap by offering virtual psychiatric evaluations, therapy sessions, and medication management through a secure and HIPAA-compliant platform. Patients can access services through smartphones, tablets, or computers, from the comfort of their homes.
“Arizona’s communities are facing significant mental health challenges, exacerbated by long wait times and provider shortages,” said Dr. Mottsin Thomas, founder and CEO of Bonmente. “We want to eliminate the logistical barriers to care and meet people where they are—digitally and emotionally.”
Unlike many telehealth services that offer generalist solutions, Bonmente focuses exclusively on psychiatric care and therapy, making it highly specialized. Their model is driven by clinical quality and customized care, delivered by a team of board-certified psychiatrists, psychiatric nurse practitioners, licensed therapists, and physician assistants. Patients are matched with professionals aligned to their specific clinical needs and preferences.
“We’re not just providing convenience; we’re delivering consistent, measurable outcomes,” added Laura Murdock, Managing Director of Bonmente. “Arizona residents deserve access to high-quality mental health care—and our platform ensures they get it without the usual delays.”
The company’s expansion into Arizona reflects its broader mission of reimagining mental health care across the United States through digital-first, patient-centered services. Bonmente already serves multiple states and is known for its ethical, physician-led operations that combine empathy, accessibility, and medical rigor.
The expansion could be a turning point for residents in Arizona’s remote, Indigenous, or underserved communities who’ve struggled to access timely care. With suicide being the 8th leading cause of death in the state and mental health disparities continuing to rise, Bonmente’s telepsychiatry services offer not just convenience—but a lifeline.
