Sasha Bergeron is a board-certified psychiatric nurse practitioner (PMHNP-BC) with over a decade of experience providing outstanding patient care. She completed her training at Vanderbilt University's renowned Psychiatric-Mental Health Nurse Practitioner program, consistently ranked among the nation's top programs, where she graduated at the top of her class and received the Outstanding Student Award. Specializing in integrative psychiatry and innovative mental health treatments, she brings extensive expertise in combining evidence-based approaches with holistic care. Having worked with ketamine since 2017, Sasha gained valuable experience and mentorship from pioneering KAT practitioners in the San Francisco Bay Area. She believes in tailoring care to each patient’s unique needs, artfully blending her expertise in psychiatry with a deep commitment to understanding the whole person—mind, body, and spirit.

Sasha's expertise spans multiple treatment modalities, including psychopharmacology, ketamine-assisted therapy, and transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS). Her published work on combining TMS with psychotherapy has contributed to the field's understanding of innovative treatment approaches. She brings particular expertise in working with those often labeled "treatment-resistant" - those who have exhausted conventional options, like antidepressants and talk therapy. Through her comprehensive approach and innovative treatment plans, she restores hope and creates new possibilities for healing. She brings specialized understanding to supporting perinatal and postpartum patients, honoring the unique challenges and transitions of these profound life phases.

Sasha's approach emphasizes accessibility and inclusivity, making mental health care both approachable and effective. She is a trusted partner in care, known for her empathetic listening, thoughtful communication, and dedication to helping individuals achieve lasting well-being. She approaches every interaction as an opportunity for therapeutic healing, drawing from Internal Family Systems (IFS), mindfulness, and meditation practices. Her approach considers the whole person while acknowledging the impact of systemic factors on mental health. She is particularly passionate about providing safe, affirming care for women, transgender, non-binary, and AFAB individuals. Whether working with patients navigating anxiety, depression, trauma, or complex psychiatric conditions, Sasha is committed to fostering resilience and improving quality of life.

A Washington, DC native, Sasha's approach to care has been profoundly shaped by her immersive experiences living abroad - from a year in Spain, where she honed her Spanish language fluency, to a transformative year traveling the world. Living among and learning from diverse communities has enriched her understanding of how mental health is experienced and expressed across different cultures, deeply informing her approach to providing culturally responsive, inclusive care.

Sasha's commitment to growth and exploration extends beyond her professional life. She shares her love of adventure with her husband and two toddlers, finding renewal in nature and continued inspiration through travel. She believes in the healing power of community, finding joy in hosting gatherings that create space for connection and restoration. It's through these varied experiences - of adventure, nature, and community - that she continues to deepen her understanding of what it means to live fully and heal authentically.
