Shana B Cantoni MN, ARNP

Psychiatric Nurse Practitioner with 20+ years of experience working with people struggling with mental health and substance use issues. I offer thoughtful diagnostic assessments and careful prescribing, monitoring of medications. I am certified to do EMDR and offer this psychotherapy. I am a good listener and I ask good questions to help get to the heart of the matter.

  • Our bodies and minds have tremendous capacity to heal. Medications are helpful in returning to an acceptable level of functioning, but they are not the answer. I use a variety of techniques, including breathing and mindfulness meditation to facilitate healing.

  • This is a phrase that is often used in health/mental health care. For my practice it is an understanding that we are all shaped by the experiences that we have had. It is not uncommon to have had negative experiences when interacting with health providers which then can influence future interactions. I understand this and work with you where you are at.

  • I work with a variety of clients from Seattle, King County and WA state. I have expertise in working with people who have experienced trauma either from personal life experiences or from professional work. I work with first responders and health care providers. I believe every client is worthy of being treated with dignity and respect regardless of circumstances.
