Tiffany Pittman MPAS, PA-C

My commitment to your mental health journey…

I am deeply passionate about helping my patients achieve mental well-being by addressing the whole person—mind and body. I provide personalized care tailored to each individual's unique experiences and needs. Together, we will explore treatment options that align with your goals, including medication management and alternative therapies such as components of lifestyle medicine—nutrition, physical activity, stress management, and sleep. I am committed to offering empathetic and compassionate care, and I believe that respectful listening is essential to our partnership.

  • I am proud to be a Minnesota native and a graduate of The College of Saint Benedict and Saint John's University (CSBSJU). After completing my studies, I commissioned as a Medical Service Corps Officer in the United States Army, where I served for over eleven years. During that time, I earned a Master of Physician Assistant Studies (MPAS) from the University of Nebraska Medical Center's Interservice Physician Assistant Program.

    With nearly seven years of experience as an active-duty Physician Assistant, I focused on managing the mental and physical health of Service Members. I worked closely with counselors, therapists, clinical psychologists, and psychiatrists to provide thorough care for conditions such as anxiety, depression, trauma, and sleep disorders. Additionally, I hold a Master Psychopharmacology Program Certificate from the Neuroscience Education Institute (NEI) and am a member of the American College of Lifestyle Medicine (ACLM).

    My husband and I are the proud parents of three beautiful children, and we all enjoy living in Colorado Springs! Our family loves outdoor activities like hiking and skiing. In my personal time, I also enjoy reading, practicing yoga, running, and spending quality moments with family and friends!

    Physician Assistants (PAs) like myself are trained in a physician-based medical model, allowing us to provide a range of mental health services. PAs are authorized to diagnose, prescribe, and manage therapy, including both prescription and over-the-counter medications, as well as controlled substances. PAs are held to the same standards of care, quality measures, and credentialing requirements as physicians, and work alongside physicians and other care team members to deliver the highest standard of patient care.
