I treat a variety of conditions, including depression, anxiety, attention deficit, eating disorders, post-traumatic stress, and postpartum mood disorders.

My passions for mental health advocacy, research and clinical work are inspired by my respect for the diversity of human experience and our capacity for profound growth and healing.
“Vanessa is extremely compassionate, understanding and acutely aware of the changes that women go through as they age. She listens and has the knowledge to guide and inform you. I am profoundly grateful for her encouragment, in alleviating my symptoms and for helping me on my path back to me.”
Through biopsychosocial model of care, I am able to make clearer deductions regarding mental , physical and emotional pain everyone is going through. As humans we all lie on a mental health spectrum that ranges from no treatment to intense treatment. A diagnostic lens is the key

“Susan is a professional, empathetic and impressive psychologist. When my young son was in serious crisis she saw us quickly, identified the issue, and got him started with medication right away. She was always easily accessible with questions and concerns and later was able to diagnose him with what a neuropsych test missed. Susan is also now helping me with my challenges as well. She is genuinely caring and very knowledgeable and accessible. I would recommend her service to anyone!”

Violet Kato, NP
Adult Health Nurse Practitioner 45.4 mi
I am co-founder/owner of Essentia Health and Wellness Center. I am a dual-board certified nurse practitioner (NP) in Psychiatry/Mental Health and Adult Health. I have practiced since 2013, obtained my doctorate degree in 2017, and received my psychiatric/mental health post-graduate certification in 2020. My NP background thus far has been in the fields of neurology, mental health, chronic pain and hospital medicine.
I have an added qualification in headache management and have published research in the areas of chronic pain and mental health in the "International Journal of Orthopaedic and Trauma Nursing" and the "Journal of Psychosocial Nursing and Mental Health Services". I am also a certified reiki provider and am currently conducting my own independent research on essential oil therapy for use in various medical and psychiatric conditions.
I believe in treating the 'entire' person...feeling mentally well can make a significant difference in your physical well-being.
