Virtual • Oregon


Hello! I’m Mitali Gor, a Family Nurse Practitioner with mental health expertise, offering a holistic, personalized approach to care. I focus on evidence-based practices delivered with compassion, ensuring every patient feels heard, understood, and supported throughout their health journey. With over four years of experience in outpatient and primary care, I’ve helped patients navigate complex medical and mental health challenges, empowering them to take an active role in their well-being.

I hold a Doctor of Nursing Practice (DNP) and a Master of Science in Nursing (MSN) from George Washington University, and I’m dual board-certified as a Family Nurse Practitioner and Psychiatric-Mental Health Nurse Practitioner (PMHNP). I provide care for patients of all ages, genders, and backgrounds through telehealth, addressing both physical and mental health. I especially enjoy supporting women during pregnancy, postpartum, and menopause, and helping adolescents with mental health challenges.

I believe the best care is collaborative and personalized. In our sessions, I listen first, understand your goals, and create practical strategies that fit your life. Whether you’re managing a chronic condition, going through life changes, or seeking mental health support, my goal is to help you feel your best. physically, mentally, and emotionally.

Lorie Tensen

Therapist

Virtual • Oregon


I’m Lorie—a Licensed Clinical Social Worker, a woman at midlife, a multiracial person who identifies as a Black American, a transracial adoptee, a mother of two adult children, and the employee of two dogs and a cat.

I work especially well with adults who are navigating the complicated, sometimes messy business of being human. If you’re 21+, a “Woman of a Certain RAGE,” or simply ready to live your life more intentionally, we may be a good fit.

Maybe you need a place to breathe, vent, make sense of things, or find a little direction. We can talk about menopause, aging, work, relationships, identity, politics, family, or the weight of daily life. You don’t have to arrive with a neatly packaged problem.

I especially welcome people from marginalized communities, including Black women who have experienced mental health or medical racism, LGBTQ+ folx, and racially or culturally displaced adoptees exploring reunion, identity, family, and belonging.

You’ll get Midwestern honesty mixed with compassion, humor, curiosity, and a little saltiness. I believe you deserve to be able to show up as your whole self—without having to perform, apologize, or explain away your lived experience.

From the outside, it looks like you've got it handled: the job, the responsibilities, the reputation for being reliable. Underneath, your mind rarely slows down: replaying conversations, second-guessing decisions you've already made, feeling guilty when you try to rest.

I work with young adults with anxiety, perfectionism, and self-imposed pressure. A lot of my clients are exhausted by overthinking and frustrated that doing everything "right" hasn't actually brought them any peace.

Together, we'll figure out what's keeping that cycle going and build real tools for managing anxiety and pressure Not just insight, but things you can actually use. My style is direct, down-to-earth, and LGBTQ+ affirming.

Most people start out feeling like they're carrying more than they can hold. Over time, that tends to get lighter, more confidence in your own decisions, less dread before hard conversations, and a life that feels as good on the inside as it looks from the outside.

If you're ready to stop carrying this alone, I'd be glad to connect.

Sherri Crespin

Sherri Crespin

Psychiatric Mental Health NP

Virtual • Lake Oswego, OR


Hello, my name is Sherri Crespin, a board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner passionate about providing integrated care for complex mental health challenges, including personality disorders, PTSD and trauma, substance use disorders, ADHD, depression, anxiety, panic disorders, mood disorders, and bipolar conditions. My practice recognizes these conditions are interconnected in ways requiring specialized understanding.

I chose these specializations because I understand how trauma influences personality development, how ADHD complicates substance use recovery, how symptoms emerge during extreme stress, and how these complex interactions require providers who see the complete picture. Whether you're in recovery while managing other conditions, dealing with personality patterns that developed as survival mechanisms, or navigating multiple diagnoses, I bring the expertise needed for comprehensive care.

My approach emphasizes evidence-based treatments and the healing power of being truly understood. I recognize that seeking help for stigmatized conditions like personality disorders takes tremendous courage, especially after negative experiences with providers. I create a therapeutic space where you can explore your experiences without judgment or shame.

You can expect a thorough assessment, personalized treatment planning, and consistent support throughout our work together. My goal is to help you build resilience, develop effective coping strategies, and thrive in your daily life.

Psychiatric Mental Health NP

Virtual • Oregon


I'm Jennifer Shocklie, a board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner (PMHNP-BC) licensed in Arizona and Oregon, and I provide medication management with supportive psychotherapy fully by telehealth. Before moving into full-time practice, I spent two years as clinical faculty at Grand Canyon University teaching Population Health and psychiatric rotations, so I've sat on both sides of the classroom and the exam room. I work primarily with adults navigating anxiety, depression, and ADHD, and I bring a culturally attuned, neurodivergent-affirming lens shaped by my own blended background and a life full of moves and transitions. If you've ever left an appointment feeling like your provider only got half the picture — your history, your culture, the way your brain actually works — that's the gap I built this practice to close.

I believe therapy is most powerful when it feels safe, collaborative, and deeply human. My style is warm, compassionate, and direct, and I work to create a space where you feel heard, understood, and supported while also being gently challenged toward growth. I draw from an integrative, holistic framework that includes psychodynamic exploration, systems therapy, trauma-informed care, mindfulness-based cognitive therapy, EMDR, and humanistic-existential approaches. This allows me to tailor therapy to your unique needs, whether you are navigating anxiety, depression, trauma, relationship issues, attachment wounds, emotional dysregulation, burnout, self-worth concerns, or major life transitions. I have worked extensively with individuals facing complex trauma, personality-related challenges, adoption, migration, and recovery from human and sexual trafficking. For organizations, I also provide Mental Health and Psychosocial Support services.
