Meet Our Team:
Karissa Haugen Owner/APRN-PMHNP
Karissa is a Board-Certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner and the founder of FireFly Mental Health.
Mental health has always been my passion, and I founded FireFly Mental Health in September 2024 with a vision of providing compassionate, accessible, and affordable psychiatric care to individuals across Minnesota. Since opening, FireFly has grown into a thriving practice with an incredible team that shares the same commitment to helping people improve their mental health and overall quality of life.
I work with children, adolescents, and adults, providing psychiatric evaluations, diagnosis, medication management, and ongoing support. I have a special interest in perinatal mental health and enjoy supporting individuals through pregnancy, postpartum, and other reproductive life transitions. I also treat a wide range of mental health conditions.
My approach is patient-centered, collaborative, and nonjudgmental. I believe every person deserves to feel heard, respected, and involved in their treatment plan. My goal is to create a comfortable space where patients can openly discuss their concerns and feel empowered to make meaningful progress toward their mental health goals.
I am proud to serve Minnesota communities through FireFly Mental Health and look forward to partnering with patients on their journey toward wellness.
