Astrya Provider Spotlight: Dr. Jeanie Croshaw, Sonoma Moon and Star Mental Health
At Astrya Global Medical Staffing, we’re proud to partner with clinicians who are not only dedicated to patient care but also committed to building something beyond their day-to-day assignments. One shining example is Dr. Jeanie Croshaw, a current Astrya contractor and double board-certified psychiatrist who has built her own thriving practice, Sonoma Moon and Star Mental Health, while continuing to serve patients through Astrya.
From Locum Tenens to Leadership
Astrya Global is proud to celebrate one of our longtime partners, Dr. Jeanie Croshaw, who recently opened her own private practice in Sonoma, California: Sonoma Moon & Star Mental Health.
For years, Dr. Croshaw has been a valued psychiatrist representing Astrya, serving patients across California through flexible locum tenens contracts. Well-known for her patient-centered approach and fascinating background, she’s become a prominent clinician within her community and the Astrya network.
Empowered by Flexibility
Before Dr. Croshaw began working with Astrya, she was looking for a position that would allow her to make a difference in underserved communities while maintaining the freedom to pursue her long-term goals. The locum tenens lifestyle was calling her name, offering everything she was looking for in a career, and she leaped at the opportunity. Through Astrya’s flexible and high-paying contracts, she was able to balance meaningful clinical work with the time and resources needed to bring her vision of Sonoma Moon & Star to life.
“Working with Astrya gave me the freedom to grow as both a clinician and an entrepreneur,” Dr. Croshaw shared. “The support I received and the ability to choose assignments that aligned with my values made all the difference.”
A Space for Healing and Connection
Now, with her new clinic in the heart of Sonoma, Dr. Croshaw is bringing that same compassion and patient-first philosophy to her own practice. Sonoma Moon & Star Mental Health provides specialized psychiatric services for children, adolescents, and adults, along with a dedicated Medication Treatment Program. The Sonoma community and its neighboring cities have long needed an accessible, state-of-the-art, and patient-centered psychiatric space - and there was no one better to bring that vision to life than Sonoma native Jeanie Croshaw. The space itself reflects her integrative approach. Located within a building that also houses acupuncture, Pilates, and psychotherapy studios, creating an environment that supports both body and mind.
A Testament to the Locum Lifestyle
Dr. Croshaw’s journey highlights one of the most powerful aspects of working locum tenens with Astrya: the ability to design a career that fits your life. Whether that means traveling between assignments, focusing on work-life balance, or, like Dr. Croshaw, building your own practice, Astrya’s model supports the freedom and financial stability to make it possible. As Sonoma Moon & Star Mental Health opens its doors, we celebrate not only a new resource for the Sonoma community, but also a shining example of what’s achievable through the locum tenens lifestyle.
