Female Psychiatrists in Seatac, WA

I am a board certified psychiatric mental health nurse practitioner (PMHNP-BC). I have approximately 10 years of experience in mental health nursing, caring for hundreds of patients with a diverse range of mental health diagnoses. Additionally, I am the founder of Iris Behavioral Health and Wellness. I chose nursing as my profession because I truly feel drawn to helping those in need. I believe in providing non-judgmental, empathetic, safe, and effective care to those in need regardless of race, lifestyle choices, financial status, sexual orientation, spiritual beliefs, or disability.

I am a Board Certified Adult Psychiatric Nurse Practitioner with over 18 years in the health care field. Are you truly living or just existing? Do you have a desire to live life to your fullest potential? Let me help you to live your best life! At my practice our philosophy is to take a collaborative approach to care. I believe the best outcomes are achieved when clinicians and client work together to create a plan of care that fully meets the clients needs.

Let's face it; life can be hard sometimes. Maybe you don't have the right people in your life to offer you a safe space to express yourself. Sometimes you need medication to help with the lows of life, deal with depression, stress, or whatever else that is going on preventing you from thriving. You want a non-judgmental space where you can talk about anything and everything. I often hear from my clients that it's too exhausting to re-tell their story to someone else if their therapist suggests a psychiatrist or vice versa. I do both; you won't have to find someone else to share with to get the care you need.

As a psychiatric nurse practitioner, my role is similar to that of a psychiatrist. I diagnose mental health disorders, work with you to develop treatment plan & prescribe psychiatric medications. I strongly feel it is important to understand your lived experience to make an accurate diagnosis & holistic treatment plan that best suites you as an individual.

As a Board Certified-Family Practice Nurse Practitioner, I am proficient in performing assessments as well as prescribing and managing medications for a multitude of disease processes.

I believe in discussing and tailoring treatment to your individual needs, taking into account the “whole person” you are and paying close attention to not only your mental health, but the factors that may play a part in your mental health needs. I look forward to our journey together!

Women and men are often stuck, stressed and feel trapped in their life. Many people use things that just do not work any longer. I help them to balance body, brain, mind, and spirit. I like to use what works. It is necessary to reduce emotional distress and discomfort. I use various methods to evaluate including: interviewing, listening, DNA testing, lab tests, metabolic, brain, and nutrition assessments. Tools used are: Nutritional supplements, exercise, medications. Hypnotherapy (RTT) is used to get to the root cause, identify beliefs and make those changes the person wants.

I believe that individuals are the best experts on themselves and their health. I assist each patient in setting their own goals and charting their own best direction. After a thorough diagnostic evaluation, I work with patients to develop a care plan which may include some combination of nutritional adjustment, exercise, counseling and medications when appropriate. My therapeutic approach builds on my earliest nursing training and is eclectic. I draw from many modalities and have extensive experience in inpatient crisis intervention as well as outpatient care with patients with multiple mental health and medical co-morbidities.

Seeking services for mental health support is an important decision. My purpose in doing this work of psychiatry is to provide clarity and understanding of symptoms that interrupt function and compromise quality of life. It is with this purpose that we, together, devise strategies for raising stress tolerance, setting attainable goals and reaching them. Since 1990 I have been working in health care, from holistic beginnings in massage therapy and nutrition, to addiction medicine, family medicine and migrant health, and now psychiatry and behavioral medicine. I am a Psychiatric Physician Associate.
