Committed to Connection
At Hauskaa we value and honor people, upholding their flourishing.
At Hauskaa Psychiatry, we incorporate a holistic approach to your mental health in our small office space in Tigard, OR.
Mental health has always been a part of our story. It started as something small - serving in a refugee camp during the height of the Syrian War; watching friends struggle with their own pain; experiencing death, sorrow and dismay as a registered nurse. Through it all, it was clear: there had to be a better way.
MISSION
To provide a safe space to explore symptoms, discern and work through root causes and offer treatments to support patients as they walk towards mental renewal.
VISION
To be the go-to source for mental health guidance in the state of Oregon, and to approach each patient with transparency, generosity, radical grace and creativity.
AI Stance & Our Commitment
Technology is advancing rapidly, and its link to declining mental health is well-documented in clinical studies and personal experience. Humans are wired for connection, yet our pursuit of comfort and convenience has pulled us away from genuine community. Human relationship is like a wilderness meant to be experienced shoulder-to-shoulder and face-to-face.
​
In our modern world, AI is the latest step in this shift. While it has potential benefits for the workplace, at Hauskaa, we approach it with extreme caution. We aim to approach AI in all forms with wisdom, humility, and care, especially when the promises it brings have hidden consequences to human worth, dignity, honor and flourishing.
​
AI is evolving in ways that threaten millions of jobs, enriching a few while displacing many. No profession is exempt—AI therapists, psychiatrists, and medical providers already exist in some markets.
​
At Hauskaa, we are committed to never replacing people with machines. We will always prioritize people over profit, hiring humans rather than outsourcing to AI. If we use AI, it will only support staff with repetitive administrative tasks—not to increase workloads or efficiency quotas. We honor the dignity of our team and believe technology should never compromise that.
​
Grace and Peace,
Elliott and the Hauskaa Team
