Hi! I'm Carli, and I'm a Board Certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner based in the Pacific Northwest. I work with teens and adults navigating everything from anxiety, depression, ADHD, and trauma to burnout, life transitions, and the stress of living in an increasingly complex world.
I believe mental health care should be compassionate, collaborative and tailored to you as a whole person—not just your symptoms. My goal is to create a space where you feel safe, heard, and genuinely supported from the very beginning.
Care with me is flexible and designed to meet you where you are. Together, we'll find the pace, treatment approach, and level of support that fits your needs—and adapt as those needs evolve.
My educational background includes undergraduate degrees in Psychology and Nursing, followed by a master's degree in nursing specializing in psychiatric mental health. Throughout my career I've cared for patients across outpatient clinics, psychiatric and medical inpatient units, intensive outpatient programs, and community mental health settings.
My approach is rooted in whole-person care, recognizing that mental health is influenced by far more than medication alone. When appropriate, treatment may include medication, supportive psychotherapy, lifestyle strategies, and integrative approaches tailored to your individual needs and goals.
Today, I provide telehealth psychiatric care for adolescents and adults across Oregon and Washington. I welcome individuals from all backgrounds and am committed to providing affirming, individualized care for neurodivergent individuals, people with developmental disabilities, and members of the LGBTQ+ community. I commonly treat anxiety, depression, ADHD, trauma, OCD, mood disorders, stress, life transitions, and other mental health concerns. My goal is to create a space where you feel safe, supported, and empowered.
Hi, I’m Elaine! I’m a Clinical Mental Health Counselor who works with adults, couples, and military families navigating life’s ups and downs. I have a Bachelors of Science in Psychology, and a Masters of Science in Marriage, Couples and Family Counseling with an addendum of Crisis and Trauma Counseling.
Many of my clients come to me struggling with relationship challenges (like communication struggles, Parenting conflicts and infidelity), trauma, PTSD, anxiety, or depression—feeling stuck, disconnected, or unsure how to move forward. My goal is to help you feel supported, understood, and equipped to create the changes you want in your life
Hello,
My name is Pamela McKeown. I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker dedicated to helping women and couples navigating life's challenges, strengthening , and rebuild self-confidence. Specializing in anxiety, depression, relationship difficulties, past trauma, and assertive communication. I provide a compassionate, non-judgmental space where clients can feel truly heard and supported. I work in partnership with clients to develop practical tools for managing daily stress and breaking though negative self- talk while helping couples dismantle destructive communication patterns and build emotional intimacy.
Hi there! I specialize in working with neurodivergent adults and people who have experienced childhood adversity. Many of my clients have ADHD, autism, or high ACE (adverse childhood experiences) scores and understand their patterns intellectually, but need help creating change that feels safe and sustainable.
I work best with clients who are ready to take an honest look at how their past continues to shape their relationships, choices, and sense of self. Trauma work cannot be rushed, so I maintain a small caseload and move at a pace that gives each client’s nervous system time to adapt. I bring genuine compassion, curiosity, and humanity into the therapy room.
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 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 am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with a Doctorate in Social Work, and I bring both clinical expertise and real life understanding into the therapy space. My professional background includes years of direct clinical practice as well as leadership roles in complex, high stress systems, including serving as a Mental Health Director. These experiences have shaped my ability to support individuals who are navigating pressure, responsibility, and emotional overwhelm while still being expected to function at a high level.
I work best with clients who are strong on the outside but struggling internally. Many of the people I support are women, mothers, professionals, caregivers, and helpers who are used to showing up for others while neglecting their own emotional needs. I have a particular passion for working with individuals experiencing anxiety, depression, imposter syndrome, burnout, life transitions, relationship stress, identity concerns, and trauma related to past or ongoing stressors.
Therapy with me is not about having all the answers. It is about learning how to trust yourself, set healthy boundaries, and show up for your life with more compassion and confidence.
You might be feeling overwhelmed, stuck or just plain tired of trying to figure everything out on your own. Maybe anxiety keeps you up at night, or depression makes it hard to find the motivation to get through your day. Perhaps ADHD has you juggling a million things at once, but nothing feels like it's getting done. Maybe you're in the midst of a big change; a new role, shifting family dynamics, or health challenges and you're not sure how to navigate it all. I want you to know that you don't have to do it alone. Life doesn't always go as planned, and sometimes it can feel overwhelming to carry. We can find a way forward together.
I’m a licensed clinical social worker with a Master’s degree in Social Work, and I’m trained in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT). My approach is practical, supportive, and focused on helping you create meaningful change in your life.
I believe that success looks different for everyone. My goal is to meet you where you are and help you move toward where you want to be—whether that’s improving your mental health, navigating life transitions, or building healthier patterns and relationships. Together, we’ll identify what’s working, what’s not, and develop tools that help you feel more confident and in control.
I strive to create a space where you feel heard, understood, and supported while also being gently challenged to grow in ways that align with your goals
A big passion of mine is supporting moms through all stages of motherhood. Whether you’re pregnant, postpartum, adjusting to life as a new mom, balancing work and family, feeling overwhelmed, or trying to find yourself again outside of motherhood — you don’t have to figure it all out alone. Motherhood can be beautiful and exhausting all at once, and I love creating a space where moms can feel supported, understood, and able to show up for themselves too.
I’m Dr. Emem Nkanga, Doctor of Nursing Practice. I believe that everyone deserves a personalized and compassionate approach to mental health care. I bring over 20 years of experience in healthcare, with a focused dedication to psychiatry over the past 4 years. My passion lies in supporting mental health and emotional well-being.
I work with children ages 10 and above, adolescents, and adults from diverse backgrounds who are experiencing challenges such as anxiety, depression, ADHD, PTSD, bipolar disorder, OCD, insomnia, and more.
I offer individual therapy for adults and teenagers! I specialize in neurodevelopmental conditions (like autism, ADHD, learning disabilities), and executive functioning skills- focusing, managing emotions, problem solving, and more. I also love working with general mental health concerns such as anxiety, depression, parenting challenges, existential crises, and life transitions!
I have ten years of experience in mental healthcare, and have an M.Ed. in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from Seattle University.
You are welcome to message me to schedule a free 15 minute consultation! Otherwise, you can use this calendar to schedule an intake session with me.
I work with people who feel caught between who they've been and who they're becoming. Many of my clients are navigating trauma, identity shifts, major life transitions, or a longing to feel more connected to themselves and the people around them. Often, they arrive feeling overwhelmed by change, weighed down by old roles or patterns, and uncertain about what comes next.
My goal is to create a space where you can slow down, explore what you're carrying, and begin moving toward a life that feels more authentic, grounded, and aligned with who you are.
