Psychiatric Mental Health NP

Hi, I'm Michael — a board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner licensed in both Oregon and California. I believe that feeling truly heard is the foundation of good psychiatric care, and I bring that belief into every appointment.

I earned my Master of Science in Psychiatric/Mental Health Nursing from Regis College and have built my clinical background across a range of settings that gave me deep insight into the complexity of mental health. That breadth of experience shapes the thoughtful, whole-person approach I bring to my work today. I am solution oriented with the intention of bringing all that I have learned over the years to the table to get you to your best, thriving self.

I specialize in adult and geriatric populations and provide evidence-based care for depression, anxiety, PTSD, bipolar disorder, psychotic disorders, and sleep disorders. My treatment approach integrates psychopharmacology with individual therapy modalities including CBT, Motivational Interviewing, and Positive Validation — because medication is only one supportive tool.

I also bring a holistic perspective to mental health care — as a trained Reiki Master, I recognize that healing extends beyond medication alone and encompasses the whole person: mind, body, and spirit. I maintain an awareness of integrative and complementary approaches, including energy work, sound therapy, acupuncture, and plant medicine, and welcome open, nonjudgmental conversations with clients who are exploring or curious about these paths.

I currently offer telehealth appointments, and I'm committed to creating a warm, culturally competent space where clients feel safe being honest about what they're going through. Whether you're seeking care for the first time or looking for a provider who will truly partner with you in your mental health journey, I'd be honored to work with you.

Daren Ford

Daren Ford

Therapist

Virtual • Oregon


I’m a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) with a Master’s in Social Work from Portland State University. I work with individuals navigating trauma, anxiety, depression, and substance use, and I bring experience from interdisciplinary behavioral health settings where care often intersects with complex life circumstances.

My approach is collaborative, direct, and rooted in the understanding that healing doesn’t happen in a vacuum. Mental health is deeply shaped by culture, community, history, and systems of power. Part of my work is intentionally engaging in a decolonizing approach to therapy—honoring lived experience, questioning one-size-fits-all models of care, and creating space for clients to define healing on their own terms.

I integrate frameworks such as American Society of Addiction Medicine and Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration as supportive tools—not rigid rules—while drawing from motivational interviewing, trauma-informed care, and relational work that centers respect, autonomy, and real connection.

I offer a focused practice in ketamine-assisted psychotherapy (KAP), with careful attention to preparation, safety, and integration. This work is not just about the experience itself, but about making meaning of it in ways that align with your values, identity, and community.
