Meet Your Provider

Shannon Enochs, DNP, PMHNP-BC

I am a psychiatric nurse practitioner with a doctorate in nursing practice. I started Goldenturas for the people who want something different.

Why I Started This

Medication changes lives.
Our tools only reach so far.

Plenty of people never find a medication that fits. That is not a failure of effort on their part, or of the person prescribing.

It is the honest limit of what we have. I started Goldenturas for the people who want something different.

  • What you have tried
  • What you inherited
  • What you are living through
  • What you already know about yourself

Then we decide together what to do with it. Sometimes that means starting a medication, adjusting one, or coming off something that stopped helping. Often it means looking at sleep, grief, food, movement, and the parts of your history no one has asked you about yet.

Goldenturas

Goldenturas combines “golden” with the Gaelic word “turas”.

The Name

Turas is Gaelic for a pilgrimage

A journey taken on purpose. It is my ancestors’ word, and what they carried came down to me the way most things do, without being named.

  1. What they carried

    Their grief, their silences, their survival.

  2. What I put down

    Some of it I have been able to set aside. Not all of it, and not quickly.

  3. What I found instead

    The other half of the name, waiting at the end of the walking.

The gold is what you come back with.

How I Practise

Four things I hold to

Whether or not ketamine is ever part of your care.

01

Unhurried

Fifty minutes to begin, and follow-ups long enough to actually talk. Fifteen-minute medication checks are not the model here.

02

The same person

You see me. Not a care team, not a rotating pool, not an app that checks in by text. I remember last month’s conversation.

03

Measured

Validated scales at regular intervals, alongside your own account of how life feels. If the two disagree, we talk about it.

04

Honest

I will tell you what the evidence supports and where it runs out, including when the answer is that this is not right for you.

Plainly Stated

How the practice
actually works

We see patients throughout California by telehealth. This is a cash-pay practice; we do not accept insurance. I know that puts it out of reach for some people, and I would rather say so plainly than bury it.

A superbill is available on request. Many patients submit it to their insurer for out-of-network reimbursement.

One conversation is enough to find out whether this is the right path for you. If it is not, I will say so.

Not for emergencies. If you are in crisis, call or text 988.
