Our providers

I am Maria Steiner-Renoir, and most people call me Masha. I am a board-certified psychiatric mental health nurse practitioner (PMHNP-BC) and family nurse practitioner (FNP-C), and the founder of MindMorph. I see adults by secure telehealth anywhere in Colorado or Oregon, and in person in Lakewood, Colorado from December 1, 2026, in English or in Russian.

I am a nurse practitioner, not a psychiatrist. A psychiatrist holds a medical degree; a psychiatric nurse practitioner holds graduate nursing degrees and national board certification in psychiatric mental health. In Colorado and Oregon, nurse practitioners practice independently, so I evaluate, diagnose, prescribe, and manage psychiatric medication, including controlled medications, under my own license.

A woman, a healer, a human story

Immigrant. Lightworker. Wife. Yoga enthusiast. Mother. Personal trainer. World traveler. Psychiatric nurse practitioner. Everything I have lived through, the moves across continents, the anxiety, the healing, and the deep curiosity, shaped what MindMorph stands for today: a safe place where science meets compassion and change becomes possible.

My path to integrative psychiatry

I began in conventional healthcare more than fifteen years ago, on ICU floors, in public schools, and in university classrooms. I taught post-graduate nurse practitioner students at Sonoma State University, served immigrant families in community clinics, and cared for patients across the lifespan.

One truth kept surfacing: people are more than their symptoms. That is why I built a practice that treats mind, body, and spirit as one, where psychiatry, therapy, and lifestyle approaches work together instead of in separate rooms.

From Uzbekistan to Lakewood

I was born and raised in Central Asia, surrounded by Eastern wellness traditions: herbal medicine, mindfulness, and the belief that nature itself heals. I immigrated first to Switzerland and then, in 2001, to the United States. I know the pressure to adapt, the loneliness of starting over, and the anxiety that comes from chasing perfection.

Those years were my best teachers. They made me resilient. They also taught me empathy and self-acceptance, lessons I now share with every patient I meet.

The curious paradox is that when I accept myself just as I am, then I can change.

Carl Rogers wrote that. The quote sits on my desk as a daily reminder of what healing really means.

The heart behind MindMorph

At MindMorph I bring Western neuroscience together with Eastern holistic wisdom: ketamine-assisted psychotherapy, Spravato, and medication management, alongside mindfulness, movement, nutrition, and somatic practice. The point is to work at the roots, caring for the nervous system, the body, the environment, and the person inside them, all at once. The goal is restored balance and self-awareness.

Why I moved to Colorado

Before MindMorph I ran a private practice in California, Maria Renoir Mindcare & Wellness, focused on holistic psychiatry and ketamine-assisted therapy. Leaving it was not easy. But Colorado's natural medicine laws, and the state's openness to psychedelic research, trauma-informed care, and integrative approaches, made the move the natural next step in my work.

I also wanted care to be easier to reach. In California I was fully cash-pay, which kept the practice independent and high-touch. In Colorado I am moving to a hybrid model that accepts insurance, so that more people can get integrative, evidence-based mental health care without a financial wall in the way. Healing should not be a luxury.

Life beyond the clinic

When I am not with patients you will probably find me in a hot-yoga studio, on a mountain trail, or planning the next trip. A yoga retreat in Bali, meditation training in Thailand, a visit to a curandera in Mexico or Colombia: the answer is always yes. Travel keeps me grounded and curious, and I bring what I learn home to my patients in Lakewood and beyond. At home, two cats and one very opinionated corgi remind me to slow down. They are my serotonin boosters on four legs.

What patients say

I've seen other providers before, but Maria was the first to treat me as a whole person, not just a diagnosis

Her sessions helped me reconnect with myself after years of feeling lost in medication changes. I finally feel understood.

Maria doesn't rush. She listens deeply and asks the kind of questions that make you think, not defend.

It's rare to find a psychiatric provider who talks about sleep, supplements, and breathwork with the same seriousness as prescriptions.

I came in for anxiety and left with a new sense of hope, not because of one medication, but because of how she helped me see the bigger picture.

Reflections are shared without names. Each one reaffirms why I do this work: to help people feel seen and safe enough to steer their own lives. They describe an experience of care, not a result; results cannot be guaranteed.

My promise to every patient

I listen before I label. In a first evaluation I ask about your history, the medications you have tried and what each one did, your sleep, what you eat, how you move, and what you want to be different. I tell you what I think is going on and what the options are, including the ones I do not offer. You will never be told what to do. You and I build the plan together, from clinical evidence and from your own lived experience, and change it when it stops fitting.

Hear it in my own words: meet Masha, what led me into psychedelic-informed psychiatry, who I work with, and what working with me looks like.

The MindMorph team

MindMorph is built as a coordinated practice: one individualized plan for each patient, rather than care organized around any single clinician. Today I am the provider you will see. As providers join, each one works within the same MindMorph Method.

Start with a conversation

Healing is personal, and so is this practice. From Lakewood, in the Denver Metro, MindMorph offers ethical, evidence-based care to patients across Colorado and Oregon, by secure telehealth and, from December 1, 2026, in person.
