Sage Meadows
Mental Health
Where Healing Takes Root

Remote Psychiatry in Utah

Thoughtful, affirming care that meets you where you are.

A boutique psychiatric practice offering personalized psychiatric evaluation and medication management designed around your life. Longer appointments. Fewer patients. More time for you.

Psychiatric care should feel like a conversation, not a countdown. If you've felt rushed through appointments, overlooked by the mental health system, or unsure whether your provider truly understands your experience, you already know how exhausting that search can be.

Sage Meadows exists to deliver a higher standard of care. I work with people who have felt marginalized because of trauma, identity, or neurodivergence to build stability and self-trust through slower, collaborative psychiatric care that centers the whole person—not just symptoms or diagnoses.

Meet Your Provider:

Hi, I’m Erica Chustz, PA-C, a psychiatric physician assistant with over seven years of experience treating adults across a wide range of mental health conditions.

Before founding Sage Meadows, I worked in diverse high-acuity psychiatric settings, including emergency psychiatry and adult community outpatient care. Those experiences shaped my clinical confidence and my commitment to thoughtful, individualized, unhurried care.

I founded Sage Meadows Mental Health to bring that level of care into a setting where patients feel seen, supported, and given the time and attention their care deserves. I help patients feels more stable, understood and grounded in who they are.

What Makes This Practice Different:

90-minute initial evaluations and 30-minute follow-ups, giving time to understand your story, answer questions, and make thoughtful collaborative treatment decisions
A limited caseload with responsive messaging, urgent visit availability, and a consistent provider who stays familiar with your life and treatment
Fully remote care via secure video visits from anywhere in Utah, on a schedule that works for you
Self-pay, out-of-network model offering more autonomy, fewer administrative barriers and greater privacy in your care
Psychiatric care grounded in trauma-informed, identity-aware, and neurodivergence-affirming practice—especially for people who have felt misunderstood or overlooked in traditional mental health settings
Shared decision-making in medication management, where treatment options are explained clearly and your preferences guide the final plan
Extensive experience across high-acuity and complex psychiatric presentations, including trauma, mood disorders, and co-occurring conditions

Who I help:

Sage Meadows Mental Health provides psychiatric assessment and medication management for adults (18+) across Utah. This practice may be a good fit if you are:

A working professional who wants quality psychiatric care that respects your time and doesn't feel rushed or transactional
LGBTQ+, neurodivergent, or navigating the impact of trauma or identity-based stressors, and looking for a provider who understands those experiences in depth—not just in theory

Recovering from childhood, institutional, religious, or systemic harm and wanting a trauma-informed approach that considers the full context of your life, not just symptoms

Anyone who has felt rushed or overlooked in previous psychiatric settings.
Someone who has felt overlooked, dismissed, or misunderstood in previous psychiatric care and wants a provider who takes time to truly understand your story
Someone who values the privacy, autonomy and flexibility of a self-pay model of care

Expected Outcomes:

While everyone’s path is different, most patients notice gradual improvements in mood stability, anxiety, focus, and overall quality of life as treatment progresses. Specific outcomes frequently include:

Increased confidence and emotional stability
Reduced trauma-related symptoms, including improved trust in yourself and others
Better ability to cope with stress and regulate emotions
