Dr. Jeanette Christensen (Jay) is a double board-certified psychiatrist and executive coach with extensive experience in mental health and healthcare leadership.

Her work bridges evidence-based medicine with practical strategy, offering care that is both clinically rigorous and grounded in real life. She approaches each person through a whole-person lens — recognizing that mental health is shaped by biology, lived experience, relationships, environment, and life stage.

Dr. Jay is known for her calm, structured, and collaborative style. Clients often describe feeling understood without being rushed, challenged without being judged, and supported without losing autonomy.

Professional Background

Dr. Jay brings broad experience across clinical practice and healthcare leadership. Her training and board certifications reflect deep expertise in psychiatry, while her coaching background informs a forward-moving, action-oriented approach.

She works with adults, adolescents, professionals, and families seeking depth, discretion, and continuity in care.

Care should feel thoughtful and steady — not reactive.

Rather than focusing narrowly on symptom reduction, Dr. Jay works to understand patterns, context, and contributing factors. Treatment plans may integrate medical management, coaching support, mindfulness-informed strategies, and practical tools designed for sustainable follow-through.

The goal is not just improvement, but alignment — clarity in how you think, feel, relate, and perform.

Areas of Focus

Dr. Jay works with individuals navigating:

  • ADHD and executive function challenges

  • Anxiety and chronic stress

  • Depression and mood shifts

  • Burnout and high-performance strain

  • Hormonal transitions and women’s mental health

  • Relational dynamics and sexual wellness

  • Leadership and identity transitions

The Practice Model

This is an intentionally small-panel practice.

By limiting the number of active clients, Dr. Jay is able to offer longer sessions, consistent follow-up rhythm, and proactive coordination when helpful. The structure allows space for complexity and reflection — not rushed, transactional visits.

A Note on Fit

This practice is best suited for individuals who value continuity, collaboration, and thoughtful engagement in their care.

It may not be the right fit for those requiring emergency services or a higher level of care than outpatient psychiatry can provide.
