Stasha Christian, PMHMP-BC

Stasha is a board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner (PMHNP) with a foundation in emergency nursing and a long-standing commitment to whole-person care. She earned her Bachelor of Science in Nursing with honors from Belmont University and graduated summa cum laude with a Master of Science in Nursing from Austin Peay State University.

Stasha’s career began as a lifestyle coach, supporting individuals in overcoming internal obstacles and building meaningful change. That passion for guiding people through challenges led her to become an Emergency Medical Technician (EMT). While volunteering with the California Medical Assistance Team, she regularly trained with the Disaster Medical Assistance Team (DMAT) and participated in joint federal exercises with Urban Search and Rescue (USAR), gaining experience in crisis response and collaborative fieldwork.

She went on to work as a registered nurse in the emergency department, where she developed strong clinical instincts in rapid assessment, emergency care and interdisciplinary teamwork. Caring for individuals and families in acute physical and psychological distress deepened her interest in mental health and ultimately guided her path to becoming a PMHNP.

Today, that foundation informs her trauma-aware, integrative approach to psychiatric care. With a holistic and nonjudgmental perspective, Stasha is committed to thoughtful, evidence-based treatment that supports individuals in achieving stability and well-being-while honoring the mental, emotional, and spiritual dimensions of health. She values honest conversation, genuine connection, and collaborative care plans that meet people where they are. She brings this depth of experience into her psychiatric practice, offering thorough, person-centered assessment and care.

Returning to the Pacific Northwest from Nashville, Stasha is excited to join the Head Well team and honored to support the mental health and well-being of the Eugene community and the greater Oregon region.
