Jasmine Maniti

Psychiatric Mental Health NP

Virtual • Beaverton, OR


I'm Jasmine Maniti, a Board-Certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner dedicated to providing comprehensive, compassionate mental health care. With a Master of Science in Nursing from West Coast University and over six years of emergency and psychiatric nursing experience, I bring both clinical expertise and a deep understanding of mental health crises to my practice.

My clinical focus includes treating depression, anxiety, ADHD, bipolar disorder, and other mood and behavioral conditions. I conduct thorough psychiatric evaluations, develop individualized treatment plans, and provide evidence-based medication management tailored to each person's unique situation. For patients with treatment-resistant depression,

What sets my practice apart is my foundation in emergency nursing. Working in fast-paced emergency departments taught me to assess complex situations quickly, remain calm during crises, and provide care that addresses immediate needs while building toward long-term wellness. I understand that mental health concerns don't always follow a predictable path, and I'm equipped to support you through both stable periods and challenging times.

I offer convenient telehealth services, allowing you to access quality psychiatric care from the comfort of your own space. My approach emphasizes collaboration—I believe the best outcomes happen when we work together as partners in your care. I take time to listen, explain treatment options clearly, and ensure you feel empowered to make informed decisions about your mental health.

Whether you're seeking help for the first time or looking for a provider who truly understands the complexities of mental health treatment, I'm here to support you with expertise, empathy, and respect. Your well-being is always my highest priority.
