We are thrilled to welcome Asher Bar-Nes (he/him), our new psychiatric medical management provider, to our team! Asher comes to us with over 17 years of experience in complex medical and psychiatric settings, and he is excited to support our clients. Visit our website to schedule an appointment with Asher today!

Asher's Philosophy:
"If you’ve ever felt overwhelmed, misunderstood, or unsure where to begin, you deserve care that meets you with steadiness and respect. My approach honors both your symptoms and your lived experience, focusing on safety, dignity, and collaboration rather than quick fixes or one-size-fits-all solutions."

What Sessions With Asher Look Like:
"Sessions offer a calm, thoughtful space where you feel heard and supported. Whether you’re navigating anxiety, depression, trauma, identity-related stress, or major life transitions, we work together to clarify what’s happening and decide on next steps that align with your goals. Medication decisions are collaborative and paced to your needs."

More About Asher:
"As a gay man, I bring both lived experience and professional expertise to my work with LGBTQ+ clients, including many transgender and gender-diverse individuals. I understand the impact of minority stress, identity development, and healthcare mistrust, and I strive to create a space where you don’t have to explain, justify, or defend who you are."

Asher's Education:
"I bring over 17 years of experience as a nurse practitioner in complex medical and psychiatric settings. I am board-certified as a Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner (PMHNP-BC) and Adult Nurse Practitioner (ANP-BC), with advanced certification in hospice and palliative care and formal training in integrative and psychedelic-assisted therapy approaches."

Are you navigating challenges with hypervigilance? We get it. This is a very common experience for survivors of trauma, including many marginalized people. Hypervigilance may have kept you safer during trauma, but it can often make day-to-day life incredibly difficult. Living in "fight or flight" can also be harmful to your health. Your therapist can help you recognize how hypervigilance is showing up in your day to day, and how to differentiate between safe and unsafe environments, relationships, and more. With tools to manage triggers and to assess things that may feel scary or safe, you can experience amazing growth and healing.

Parents and caregivers: is your kid asking questions about gender identity and sexuality? Do you wish you could connect with another parent who has navigated this before? It can be hard to balance wanting to be supportive with your own questions, and your desire for age-appropriate guidance. Full Spectrum has a Peer Support Specialist certified to work with parents just like you! With peer support, you'll work with a supportive, informed, and caring parent who knows exactly what you're going through. Reach out today (admin@fullspectrumpdx.com).

(P.S.: you're doing great!)

And by love we mean not just partnerships and romance, but: also the love of friendship, chosen family, extended family, intentional community, and when we speak and act and experience joy with intention. We are so glad you are here. And we aren't going anywhere.

It is normal to have some anxiety in relationships, or to wonder and explore how you show up authentically within a relationship. This is especially true if you are healing from trauma and/or learning healthy attachment. However, big or persistent feelings of this nature may be a real concern. If you are feeling this way, it can help to talk to a trusted person, like a therapist, to explore the root of these feelings and possible next steps. Remember, this isn't limited to romantic relationships!

Healing from trauma, especially generational trauma, can be challenging and intense. It can cause confusion, anger, sadness, grief, and more. It's not fair, but you're not alone. One thing that can be helpful as you grow is to remember this: as we grow, we become our own caregivers. This can help us to remember self-care, accountability, and self-trust. How can you look at yourself as a being worthy of love, tenderness, thoughtfulness, and consideration?
