Get to know Child & Adolescent Psychiatrist Dr. Kristen Case, who serves patients in Edina, Minnesota.
A devoted child & adolescent psychiatrist, Dr. Case has been affiliated with PrairieCare since 2009. She enjoys her role in PrairieCare’s partial hospital program since it allows enough time to really get to know her patients and their families well, while providing comprehensive psychiatric care with her treatment team. She believes that the partial hospital setting enables her to care for the whole family system including the identified patient. She also enjoys working with other physicians in a collaborative care model, and acting as a mentor to others committed to the mental health care of children and adolescents.
PrairieCare offers mental health services to youth, adolescents, and adults at ten locations throughout Minnesota. Their services span the full continuum of care for patients. Their mission is to provide each individual patient the psychiatric care they truly need.

She then went on to complete her residency in psychiatry and her fellowship in child & adolescent psychiatry at the same educational venue in 2008 and 2009, respectively.
Following her training, the doctor attained board certification in psychiatry through the American Board of Psychiatry and Neurology (ABPN). The ABPN is a not-for-profit corporation dedicated to serving the professions of psychiatry and neurology.
In order to remain up to date in her field, she is an active member of the American Psychiatric Association, the American Academy of Child and Adolescent Psychiatry, the Association of Women Psychiatrists, the American Medical Association, and the Minnesota Medical Association.
Because of her love of teaching, Dr. Case is also an adjunct faculty member at the University of Minnesota, teaching medical students, residents and child/adolescent psychiatry fellows.
