It makes sense that you might feel worry and despair given the current state of the world. We can use all the tools of holistic psychiatry to treat anxiety, depression, and trauma so that you can reclaim your energy for what matters. I'm an integrative psychiatrist trained to use medication, psychotherapy, hormone replacement therapy, supplements, herbs, and mind-body techniques to support your nervous system. There are so many options, even for those who dislike medication or feel like they've tried everything before. I’ve had the honor of supporting many people to feel like their true selves again, I’d love to accompany you, too.

I'm here to understand the nuances of your situation and guide you through the options, then partner with you to create a personalized treatment plan that is effective and even enjoyable. Every patient is unique to me, requiring detailed understanding and individually tailored treatment. I'm not pushy about meds, and I believe you about your experiences.

Let's help you reconnect to who you are underneath all the noise. You can contact me through my website to set up a complimentary intro call. I'd love to hear how you're doing and let you know how I might support you to emerge from this moment stronger than ever.

I understand that many people come in skeptical of medication. I take a gentle and collaborative approach to prescribing, and I trust you as the expert on your body and mind. I've done additional training in hormone replacement therapy to support folks through perimenopause. I'm one of the few providers in MN offering both medication and psychotherapy, if you are interested in the combination.

In my time with Dr. Brown, I was struck by her unhurried curiosity and integrative depth. She doesn't pathologize suffering, she offers options. A clinician who sees the whole person. I refer with confidence.

Carson is a magical blend of intelligence, humor, kindness, and warmth. I felt instantly at ease when chatting with her, and she understood me and all my quirks within minutes, in a way that made me feel seen and heard!

The Work That Reconnects
Trauma Focused

To treat climate distress, I use Joanna Macy's framework, The Work That Reconnects, which reframes our grief, fear, pain, and rage as expressions of love, courage, interconnectedness, and desire for justice. She reminds us that challenges of this scale require deep spiritual resources. Visit workthatreconnects dot org, read Active Hope, or contact me to learn more.
