Psychiatry and Herbalism
At Doorways, we believe in a holistic approach to mental health and well-being, recognizing that medication can be a valuable adjunct to talk therapy.
In addition to our innovative *Ketamine Assisted Psychotherapy* , we proudly offer traditional psychiatry services to provide a well-rounded and personalized treatment plan tailored to your unique needs.
We understand that finding the right psychiatrist is crucial, especially for our Queer and Trans clients. Our commitment to considering the needs of our community extends to our psychiatry services, ensuring that you have access to professionals who are affirming and understanding of your identity. We recognize the importance of addressing the complexities of being a BIPOC person navigating the medical industrial complex, and our psychiatrists are here to support you with empathy and respect.
Just as with our psychotherapy services, our focus is on you, the whole you. We’re not here to pathologize or label, but to stand beside you as allies on your journey. Our approach is client-centered, prioritizing your well-being and respecting your autonomy. Your specific needs are at the forefront of our work, guiding us as we provide support that is sensitive, affirming, and culturally aware.
Medication Services
Fall 2025 our Psychiatry Services Are as Follows:
Diagnostic Assessment: Understanding your story
Our assessments are collaborative explorations — a process of listening, wondering, and reflecting together. While diagnoses can be useful tools to understand patterns and guide care, we recognize they do not define you. Our psychiatry team brings curiosity, cultural humility, and clinical expertise to help identify the underlying causes of distress — always holding that your symptoms may also carry meaning, history, and power. Psychological testing and lab work may be recommended when helpful, but the focus remains on building a felt sense of safety, connection, and insight.
Medication Support & Prescribing: Supporting your agency
There is no one-size-fits-all approach to healing. For those considering medication as part of their path, our psychiatry team offers thoughtful, collaborative prescribing that prioritizes consent, attunement, and informed choice. Whether exploring medication for the first time, making changes to current regimens, or planning a safe deprescribing process, they work in partnership with you — honoring your wellness values and long-term goals. Their care is not about numbing or quick fixes, but about finding balance: enough stability to do deeper work, and enough presence to remain in touch with what’s most needed at the time.
Integrative & Collaborative Care: Healing doesn't happen in silos
Psychiatry at Doorway is fully integrated into our wider care team. Our psychiatry team regularly collaborates with your therapist, primary care provider, and other support people (with your consent) to ensure continuity, connection, and collective insight. You don’t have to explain your story over and over — we’re in communication, holding your care as a team.
Psychotherapy with Dr. Rahil: Holding the full arc of your healing
In addition to medication support, Dr. Rahil offers psychotherapy rooted in somatic, contemplative, and depth-oriented traditions. Their work integrates clinical expertise with over 15 years of Buddhist, somatic, and shadow practice. If you're looking for a healing relationship that can hold both your complexity and your clarity — your suffering and your purpose — you may have found a home here.
Tailored Herbal Remedies: Natural Wellness Options
If you’re not currently considering medication and are intrigued by the idea of herbal remedies, we have exciting offerings tailored just for you. We’ve joined forces with a local herbalist who shares our passion for holistic well-being. Together, we are carefully crafting specialty blends inspired by the themes and insights that emerge within our therapy rooms. These blends are thoughtfully designed to complement and enhance the therapeutic journey you’re undertaking with your therapist.
Our herbal remedies encompass a variety of forms, each designed to support you in your unique healing journey. From tinctures that can be easily incorporated into your daily routine to oxymels that combine the goodness of herbs and honey, our offerings are as diverse as the individuals we serve. Our signature bath blend was specifically created to help you find your own inner truth as you indulge in a luxurious and soothing experience that helps you to engage with your therapeutic process.
Just as our therapy services are rooted in client-centered and culture-centered approaches, our herbal remedies are created with your well-being at heart. We understand that healing is a multidimensional journey, and our holistic wellness options aim to address the various layers of your experience. Whether you’re exploring medication, herbal remedies, or a combination of both, our goal remains the same: to provide you with the tools, support, and resources you need to embark on a transformative path towards wellness.
