About
Natalie Dreyfoos, DNP
Clinic Founder/Owner, Psychiatric Nurse Practitioner
Welcome—
I’m Dr. Natalie Dreyfoos, a Doctor of Nursing Practice (DNP) and board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner (PMHNP-BC) with prescriptive authority. My career in healthcare spans more than a decade, with experience rooted in both medical oncology and psychiatry.
Before founding Dockside Psychiatry Clinic, I spent six years in inpatient care at Overlake Hospital Medical Center, working as both a medical-oncology nurse and a psychiatric nurse. I went on to earn my Doctor of Nursing Practice (DNP) from Seattle University, where I was honored as a Jonas Scholar for my dedication to advancing psychiatric nursing and strengthening collaboration between psychiatry and primary care. These experiences continue to guide my commitment to patient advocacy, open communication, and whole-person care.
My advanced practice career began in child and adolescent psychiatry, providing evaluations, medication management, and family support in private practice. I later transitioned into psycho-oncology at Fred Hutch Cancer Center, where I served as a consult-liaison psychiatric nurse practitioner, supporting patients and families across the cancer spectrum. This work deepened my passion for helping individuals navigate both complex medical and mental health challenges—a focus I carry into my current practice.
At Dockside Psychiatry, I provide care for adults with general psychiatric concerns as well as those facing the unique psychological impact of oncology. I see patients in both Seattle and Woodinville, offering a compassionate, individualized approach designed to help you feel understood, supported, and empowered in your mental health journey.
I encourage open communication and invite you to ask questions at any point during your care. My goal is to ensure you feel informed, respected, and engaged in the process as we work together toward healing and growth.
Warmly,
Dr. Natalie Dreyfoos
