Hello, I'm Heidi Fanslow, PMHNP-BC, a board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner providing psychiatric evaluation, medication management, and supportive care for adolescents and adults. I have more than 30 years of healthcare experience, with a background spanning oncology, inpatient psychiatry, behavioral health, and nursing education. After earning my Master of Science in Nursing from Gonzaga University, I transitioned into advanced psychiatric practice with a passion for helping individuals navigate life's challenges and improve their overall well-being.
I work with clients experiencing anxiety, depression, ADHD, trauma-related concerns, mood disorders, OCD, and other mental health conditions. I recognize that each person's story is unique, and I strive to understand the full picture—including medical factors, life stressors, relationships, sleep, and daily functioning—to develop a treatment plan tailored to their individual needs and goals.
Hi! I'm a doctorally prepared Psychiatric-Mental Health Nurse Practitioner and Certified Nurse Midwife!
I work with individuals across the lifespan experiencing anxiety, depression, ADHD, mood disorders, burnout, hormone-related mood changes, and major life transitions. I take a thoughtful, personalized approach to understanding your concerns and develop an integrative care plan that considers the many factors influencing your mental health and well-being.
My goal is not just symptom relief - it's helping you feel like yourself again.
Hi! I’m Vanessa! I’m a wife, Mom and entrepreneur. I’m also a psychiatric nurse practitioner specializing in integrative psychiatry and women’s mental health. I run a niche mental health clinic called Kavah Wellness Psychiatry. I hold a bachelors degree, two masters degree and a doctor of nursing practice degree. I have almost a decade of experience in the mental health sector. I love everything mental health!
I’m Cris, a licensed independent social worker with over 28 years of clinical experience offering a compassionate, collaborative approach to therapy. addressing anxiety, depression, low self-esteem, life transitions, trauma recovery, age-related memory changes/dementia/talk therapy, grief, and loss. Over the years I learned that healing isn’t about ‘fixing’ people—it’s about helping them reconnect with their own strength, face challenges with courage, and create meaningful change in their lives.
I'm a Licensed Clinical Social Worker practicing in Colorado, Idaho Washington & Oregon. I've been in practice 26 years. I graduated from Walla Walla University with a Master in Social Work in 2000. My experience includes working with people with anxiety, depression, trauma, self-esteem, LGBTQ, relational conflict, grief & loss, and adjustment/transitional challenges. I use a number of therapeutic techniques including Motivational Interviewing, CBT, ACT, Trauma Informed Care, Mindfulness and strengths based techniques. My goal is to help you become a better version of yourself.
Psychotherapy provides a safe place to discuss fears, thoughts, and difficult decisions we as humans must make during our journey in life. I believe we are capable of making life changes with the right tools. I am here to listen without judgement. I believe we all have a story to share. Being heard is one of the most important aspects of communication.
My passion is working with clients who have experienced some form of trauma in their lives. By sharing your story, we can begin to process the trauma from experience to a new understanding, while remaining in the present.
I hold a doctoral degree from a progressive Jesuit school as a Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner. Prior, I spent over 10 years in one-on-one home healthcare, studied psychology before nursing, and obtained an EMT certification, with a side interest in Fire and Rescue EMS.
In the past, I considered everything from becoming a veterinarian, an acupuncturist, a wildlife biologist, a gypsy with a fishing boat, a journalist, an underwater welder, an astronomer, an anthropologist, and yes, going to medical school. The nursing field, however, is beautifully versatile, and ended up being on point and on time. I'd like to think I weave into my perspective and practice, threads of all of those other fields.
Exploring the internal world is just an integral part of my life. By now, I'm cozy with cross-cultural/philosophical and belief perspectives surrounding existence, growth, difficult symptoms, and medicines. I've worked with myself - no doubt, but personally and professionally, with a lot of other people for whom it's all been front and center.
I’ve spent 10 years working with teens and families, and I care deeply about helping people feel understood. I create a space where you can be yourself and feel a sense of belonging, without judgment. I value both family connection and your privacy. Most of all, I believe real change starts with a genuine, comfortable relationship.
I am a family and Psychiatric Nurse Practitioner. I received my advanced degree from Regis University and a postgraduate certificate in Psychiatry and Mental Health from the University of Cincinnati. I completed the Community-Based Integrated Care Training Fellowship at the University of Washington. I have an interest in treating mood disorders, anxiety, ADHD, insomnia, adjustment disorders, and PTSD, serving individuals from ages 18 to 99 years old in a compassionate and personalized way
I want my clients to know that I believe healing happens through collaboration, trust, and compassion—not judgment. My goal is to create a safe, respectful space where you feel heard, understood, and actively involved in your care.
As a board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner (PMHNP-BC), with over 25 years of nursing experience in acute care settings, I provide evidence-based, person-centered care for individuals experiencing mental health and substance use concerns. I recognize that every person's story is unique, and I take the time to understand your experiences, strengths, values, and goals before developing an individualized treatment plan together.
I believe that medication is only one piece of treatment. When appropriate, I also incorporate education, supportive therapy, motivational interviewing, cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) principles, harm reduction, lifestyle interventions, and coordination with other members of your care team to support your overall well-being.
My role is not to judge your past, but to help you build the future you want. Whether you're seeking care for anxiety, depression, trauma, bipolar disorder, ADHD, substance use, or another concern, I am committed to providing honest guidance, evidence-based recommendations, and a therapeutic relationship built on mutual respect. I encourage questions, welcome open communication, and want you to feel empowered to participate in decisions about your care.
Together, we'll focus on helping you achieve meaningful, lasting improvements in your mental health and quality of life.
