Trauma and PTSD therapists & psychiatrists in Eugene, OR

As a board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner (PMHNP), I believe every person deserves to be heard, understood, and treated as more than a diagnosis. I take the time to understand the whole person, considering the biological, psychological, social, and lifestyle factors that influence mental health. I provide compassionate, evidence-based care for children, adolescents, adults, and older adults, creating personalized treatment plans that support lasting wellness. My goal is to help you feel supported, empowered, and confident throughout your mental health journey.

I'm a Licensed Professional Counselor with three years of experience in both inpatient and outpatient care, and I specialize in ADHD, PTSD, depression, grief, and women's issues. I'm EMDR-trained and bring a holistic, humorous, and open-minded style to our work together — you can expect real talk, not clinical distance.

I became a psychiatric nurse practitioner because I did my own work first — after years in a career that looked fine from the outside and felt hollow on the inside, something finally clicked. I live with ADHD and ASD myself, and I'll be direct: it makes me better at this. I'm wired to hold fine details and the big picture simultaneously, connect patterns across a history, and notice what other providers might miss. I work especially well with children and adolescents (ages 6+), perinatal and antepartum folks, LGBTQIA+ individuals, and people who are AFAB or identify as women — many navigating ADHD, autism, PTSD, PMDD, OCD, mood disorders, or a diagnosis that never quite fit. If previous providers didn't get the full picture of you, that's exactly the gap I'm here to close.

Hello! I am Renell Kumeh, an advanced practice registered nurse, with dual certification in family medicine and psychiatry, licensed in OR, WA, DC, TX, FL, NV, ND, CT, MA and pending licensures in other states. At the core of my values is treating others the way I would like to be treated.

I work with individuals navigating behavioral challenges, life transitions, grief and loss, anxiety, relationship concerns, obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD), post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), depression, and a variety of other emotional and mental health concerns. With more than twenty years of experience in Christian ministry, pastoral counseling, workshop facilitation, coaching, and governmental law, I bring a diverse and compassionate perspective to my work with individuals seeking healing and personal growth.

In 2011, I returned to school to earn a Master's degree in Clinical Counseling, followed by a Doctorate in Psychology. After completing my education, I founded the iFS Center in the Eugene community, which now provides services through a secure telehealth platform.

My approach is integrative and solution-focused, combining evidence-based therapeutic practices with compassionate, individualized care.

I am a board-certified psychiatric nurse practitioner who holds a master’s degree in nursing from Frontier Nursing University. As an independent practitioner I can diagnose and treat mental health conditions with full prescriptive authority and order diagnostic labs as appropriate. With nearly 15 years of nursing experience, my passion for patient and family-centered care has evolved from working the on the front lines as an ICU RN during the covid-19 pandemic to addressing the mental health crisis impacting all of our communities as a nurse practitioner.

I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist with a Master’s degree in Couples and Family Therapy. I have extensive experience working with children, teens, adults, and families across a range of concerns. My specialties include anxiety disorders, trauma and PTSD, ADHD and executive functioning challenges, and child and adolescent therapy with parent coaching. I enjoy helping clients better understand themselves, navigate difficult emotions, and build healthier relationships and coping strategies.

I’ve gained broad experience through filling various roles in three different county mental health agencies in the state of Oregon over the past twelve years. I work with individuals age 14 and up and tend to work with many in the helping professions as well as first responders. I use ACT and DBT interventions and my goal is for you to feel truly seen and heard in our sessions, and to create an environment where you feel safe and supported.

I’m a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) with a Master’s in Social Work from Portland State University. I work with individuals navigating trauma, anxiety, depression, and substance use, and I bring experience from interdisciplinary behavioral health settings where care often intersects with complex life circumstances.

My approach is collaborative, direct, and rooted in the understanding that healing doesn’t happen in a vacuum. Mental health is deeply shaped by culture, community, history, and systems of power. Part of my work is intentionally engaging in a decolonizing approach to therapy—honoring lived experience, questioning one-size-fits-all models of care, and creating space for clients to define healing on their own terms.

I integrate frameworks such as American Society of Addiction Medicine and Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration as supportive tools—not rigid rules—while drawing from motivational interviewing, trauma-informed care, and relational work that centers respect, autonomy, and real connection.

I offer a focused practice in ketamine-assisted psychotherapy (KAP), with careful attention to preparation, safety, and integration. This work is not just about the experience itself, but about making meaning of it in ways that align with your values, identity, and community.
