Emily Russ, P.A.C., M.S., B.A.

My philosophy of care centers on treating each patient with compassion, dignity and respect while delivering high-quality psychiatric care. I believe in creating a supportive and understanding environment where patients feel valued and heard.

I enjoy working in behavioral health because it allows me to give back to my community by serving the people who live and work here. I find it deeply fulfilling to positively impact my patients’ lives by addressing their health concerns, improving their quality of life or simply being a trusted resource in times of need.

Having the ability to engage deeply with patients, understand their thoughts and feelings and help them navigate mental health challenges is why I chose a career in behavioral health. Working with the adult population, aged 18 plus, allows me to address a wide range of life experiences.
