Anxiety and depression therapists and psychiatrists in Yakima, WA

Hi, I’m Carisa Peeples, a Doctorally prepared Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner (PMHNP) with over 15 years of healthcare experience. My background includes psychiatric emergency care, crisis stabilization, and working with individuals experiencing anxiety, depression, mood disorders, trauma, ADHD, and life stressors.

I believe mental health treatment should be compassionate, individualized, and collaborative. My goal is to create a safe, supportive space where clients feel heard while we work together to develop a treatment plan that fits their needs and goals.

Through my career I've worn many different hats before getting a prescription pad. I've worked in a variety of settings such as inpatient, emergency departments, community health, residentials, eating disorder treatment, and addiction recovery with kids, adolescents, and adults.

Hello, my name is Christopher. Welcome to your next mission. I am located in Eastern Washington (Spokane) area. I offer virtual individual therapy specializing in Anxiety, Depression, and Trauma responses. I have worked in the field of /PTSD trauma for the last 12 years.

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 work with individuals, couples, and families of all ages. I have a Masters in Clinical Health Psychology and a Masters in Nutrition/Dietetics, which helps lend to a holistic approach to my work with clients. I commonly work with health behavioral change, anxiety, depression, eating disorders, ADHD, OCD, and relationship change. My treatment approach utilizes a biopsychosocial lense in long-term therapy based in psychodynamic, strengths-based, and integrative work in overall health. I utilize coping skills from CBT, DBT, ACT, and Mindfulness. I incorporated life-skills such a assertiveness, boundaries, and career.

I love the work that I do and the healing relationships I have been able to foster with my clients. I believe that therapy is a form of self-care and I want to be an advocate of that for my clients. I welcome anyone who thinks they may want some support, whether long-term or short-term to reach out to me and set up a brief phone consultation.
