Hi! My name is Saskia Matthews and I’m a Psychiatric Nurse Practitioner! My focus is to make sure people feel supported and heard when making decisions regarding their psychiatric medications and general mental health. I believe everyone has mental health needs and my goal is to reduce stigma associated with mental illness and to improve access to care to help people achieve a better quality of life. I grew up in Baltimore County and have also lived in Washington DC, Alexandria VA and Boston, MA. In my spare time I love to go running with my rescue pitbull and volunteer at a local animal rescue. I look forward to working with you!

I am so grateful for Saskia and Lifestance. First, Saskia takes the time to listen to me then provide options for my care. She does not pressure and listens to what I say before offering her advice. Based on her assessment and options for my care I am finally moving forward in a great way! The most important thing Saskia does is listen to me. I give the highest recommendatiom for Saskia because she takes the time with her clients, every recommendation for my mental health has been on target and she will always make you feel welcomed and comfortable.

Lifestance has made it super easy to get the care that I need and make significant progress in a relatively short amount of time. Saskia, specifically, has been great. She has always made me feel heard and takes time to help me make the best plan.

I feel heard. SASKIA is compassionate and understanding of my reluctance to take mental health meds. So she explains the benefits and is easing me in from the shore rather than tossing me into the deep end. I’m grateful for that.
