Mental wellness isn’t about perfection. It is the practice of identifying and accepting emotions in ways that strengthen our ability to navigate the world as it is. A journey towards mending the soul.”

“As people, we have much in common. I strive to keep my humanity at the forefront in my personal and professional endeavors. Come as you are, and I’ll come as I am.”
Dr. Cory Zeller is a board-certified Psychiatric-Mental Health Nurse Practitioner (PMHNP) with a Doctor of Nursing Practice degree who specializes in the treatment of mood disorders, anxiety disorders, psychotic disorders, and ADHD. His holistic approach to treatment integrates medication management, brief psychotherapy, and alternative remedies to assist clients in achieving their wellness goals.
Cory's journey to become a PMHNP was influenced by his background in emergency room nursing, where he navigated the growing stigma surrounding mental health crises in real time. Wanting to provide a more respectful, compassionate approach to mental health care, Cory transitioned into psychiatric nursing and eventually earned his PMHNP certification. His experiences working in rural areas and with underserved populations–particularly the LGBTQIA+ community–have shaped his deep commitment to providing accessible, trauma-informed care to individuals within the Pacific Northwest. Prior to joining the team at Kaleidoscope RX, Cory worked as the lead practitioner of multiple esketamine (Spravato) and transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) clinics within Oregon and Washington.
Cory has a passion for sports that spans both seasons and environments, from hiking and backpacking to skiing and snowshoeing. Adventures from having lived near both coasts and traveling abroad have brought him a variety of challenges, opportunities for fulfillment, and life experiences. He sees these moments as contributing to his personal understanding of health and wellness and encourages his clients to find what enrichment works for them to deepen their appreciation of themselves, their interests, and the world around them.
Cory’s Kaleidoscope
"The kaleidoscope I envision combines the many colors of our greatest natural wonders; from the radiant red of the desert sun, to the calming green forests and bright blue waters of the Pacific Northwest. An amalgamation of natural sights that highlights the often indescribable beauty of our own diverse stories.”
