approach and about
Kimberly Rickel, PMHNP-BC
As a board certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner, I enjoy working with individuals to develop individualized treatment plans to both work with and reduce symptoms impeding on physical, mental, and emotional wellbeing. I enjoy the process of understanding each individuals unique life story, and navigating the journey towards a more fulfilled life using pharmacological and holistic interventions. I enjoy looking at ways of which to facilitate sleep, exercise, nutrition, and engaging in individually desired activities and interests. My specialities include ADHD, mood and anxiety disorders, depression, trauma, and eating disorders.
I conduct thorough psychiatric evaluations to diagnose mental health conditions and provide evidence based treatment. Treatment plans may include recommendations for laboratory monitoring, cardiac clearance, sleep studies, and neuropsychological testing prior to or in continuing certain medications.
I obtained my Master’s degree at Gonzaga University in 2022, having since practiced in the outpatient setting with clients ages 16 and older. My previous experience includes working a decade as a psychiatric mental health RN in both inpatient and community settings working with the adult and geriatric population in the Pacific and Inland NW.
