Heidi Chriss, PA

Why did you choose to practice psychiatry?
I chose to practice psychiatry because I believe that the mind is just as important as the body. Being able to support and guide patients through their mental health journey has been a rewarding career.

Who or what inspires you in your work as a psychiatry provider?
Hearing patient stories of resilience, transformation and healing inspires me to work hard in providing the best care for my patients.

How can you help? Talk about your specialty and what you offer.
I am drawn to working with people as whole individuals. We will explore how sleep, nutrition and lifestyle all interplay in emotional well being. By integrating evidence-based medication with mindfulness and lifestyle changes, I will work with you to not only ease distress, but to restore your overall well being.
