At Hope Mental Health, we treat those in the Treasure Valley with mental health problems. Treatment typically begins with a comprehensive evaluation of a patient’s medical history, past psychiatric history, cultural issues, and lab work. From there, the team tailors a treatment program that promotes mental health wellness through healthy habits, behavioral counseling, medications when needed, and psychotherapy. Providers can address any number of mental health problems, including, but not limited to, anxiety, depression, obsessive-compulsive disorder, post-traumatic stress disorder, attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), schizophrenia, and bipolar illness. The goal at Hope Mental Health is to achieve remission by helping patients deal with the here-and-now and providing them with the tools they need to lead productive and happy lives.
If you’d like to gain control over your mental health issues, call Hope Mental Health, or use the online scheduling tool to set up an initial consultation.

Satu H. Woodland, PMHCNS
Ms. Woodland is the clinic owner and has provided mental health treatment to her patients for over 30 years. She completed her education at the University of California San Francisco. Her practice focuses on psychiatric wellness including evaluations with medication management services. For those that are interested in finding out how genetics can play a part in the choice of medicine, she can also provide that. OCD and Bipolar Disorder are her favorites and are subspecialties of hers, though she is very skilled in treating Depression, Anxiety, PTSD, psychosis, ADHD, etc... She commonly uses traditional medicine and when patient is interested, can counsel in the use of supplements and alternative treatments and often uses a combination of all those in providing care. For those looking for therapy, we have our network of amazing therapists who we can refer you to. Satu is currently accepting new Adolescent and Adult patients.
We are proudly a clinic that is involved with the clinical education of our students. Regularly, we have a student onboard that is "practicing" being an advanced practice psychiatric nurse (CNS or NP). These students are always supervised closely by owner/clinician Satu Woodland who has been in the field for 30+ years. These students typically are very enthusiastic, highly intelligent, and current on recent scientific research on psychiatry. Our patients typically love them! If you don't want a student participating, please let our office know. Otherwise, you may have 2 providers participating in your plan of care!

After Hours Missed Appointment Clinic
Like other clinics we do charge for no shows and cancellations with less than 24 hour notice which is a flat $100 no matter how long the appointment was scheduled for. This is because another patient could have taken your spot. However recently we have created a way for our patients to avoid 75% of the fee under certain conditions. On Tuesday and Wednesday nights we hold a Missed Appointment Clinic for our established patients who miss their appointment or canceled with less than 24 hour notice. Between 5 PM and 6 PM, we will see anybody for a short encounter (usually about 5 to 15 minutes ) who signs up for an appointment with the office ahead of time. Please be aware you may not see your normal provider but the provider on duty that night. This person will not be doing any med changes but will be able to refill meds. That's why it is always better to keep your appointment that you have scheduled with your own provider. Doing video conferencing visits really makes it easy to keep your appointment. You can do it in your car, or outside your work on a lunch break or when the baby is down for a nap. Feel free to call the office with any questions around that!
