Psychiatric Mental Health NP

Virtual • Idaho


Welcome! I am Jeremy Wade, a dual board-certified Family and Psychiatric-Mental Health Nurse Practitioner with over two decades of healthcare experience. After spending 25 years as an ER provider and clinical leader, I saw too many patients hospitalized simply because they couldn't access proactive outpatient psychiatric care. Driven by a passion to help this underserved population, I stepped away from the ER to dedicate myself fully to mental wellness. Today, I combine my deep medical background with my growing mental health expertise to treat the "whole you" in a safe, welcoming, and collaborative environment.

I'm Kate, a trauma-informed therapist licensed in Idaho and Washington who works exclusively with women 18 and older.

I work with anxiety, trauma, PTSD, postpartum changes, grief, and life transitions. Whether you've been in therapy before or this is your first time, my style is warm, body-inclusive, and genuinely curious about who you are — not just the problem you came in with.
