Ma Rosa Nika Varrin

My experience includes working extensively with individuals facing chronic and severe mental illness in both inpatient and outpatient settings.

I also serve as a professor, educating future healthcare professionals on the importance of compassionate, evidence-based mental health care.

I specialize in personalized psychiatric care and incorporate advanced tools like GeneSight genetic testing to help determine which medications may be most effective for each of my patient's unique biology.

Whether you are interested in pharmacogenomic testing or prefer to explore alternative, evidence-based holistic approaches, I will work with you to find the path that feels right for your healing process.

My approach centers on collaborative patient-guided care. I believe patients should always feel empowered and informed when making decisions about their mental health.

If medication is appropriate, I offer tools like lab testing, and genestic testing to take the guesswork out of prescribing. But, if you prefer to avoid standard pharmaceuticals, we can explore alternative modalities, therapy strategies, or integrative options.

My goal is to tailor the treatment directly to what my patient needs, their comfort level, and personal goals so they can regain a sense of control and clarity.

During our initial consultation, we will discuss your history, goals, and prior treatment experiences. We will also talk about options and pathways of treatments, and you will leave our first session with a clear plan and a supportive partner in your care.

You can expect a warm, judgement-free space where you can be yourself, and your preferences are genuinely heard.
