About
Anita serves as a guide in their journey to improved mental health, utilizing a unique approach that encompasses canine therapy as well as the ability to prescribe medications when applicable. This approach involves a consistent management of the healing process through ongoing evaluations for progress on medication, therapy, and alternative referrals. Each patient assessment is individualized, evaluating the patient from both the clinical standpoint as well as the individual path to help the patient. This involves looking at all factors from a broad scope of health issues that attribute to mental health, such as diet and nutrition, hydration, chemical make-up, sleep, exercise, outside forces, stress, interactions with others, etc. All resources are explored to guide the patient's journey to improved mental health. Therapy Gone to the Dogs is located in Portland, OR, and serves adolescents and adults. Anita Katz, a Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner (PMHNP), has been practicing since 2002 and focuses on the promotion of mental health for both adolescents and adults. Anita works in partnership with her clients to provide care for the whole individual using nursing science and psychological theory to understand how mental health affects overall health.
