Hi, I’m Carisa Peeples, a Doctorally prepared Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner (PMHNP) with over 15 years of healthcare experience. My background includes psychiatric emergency care, crisis stabilization, and working with individuals experiencing anxiety, depression, mood disorders, trauma, ADHD, and life stressors.
I believe mental health treatment should be compassionate, individualized, and collaborative. My goal is to create a safe, supportive space where clients feel heard while we work together to develop a treatment plan that fits their needs and goals.
I’m a board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner providing care to adolescents and adults across Washington State. I specialize in treating anxiety, depression, ADHD, trauma/PTSD, mood disorders, and stress-related concerns. My services include comprehensive psychiatric evaluations, medication management, and therapy. I use evidence-based approaches like Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Motivational Interviewing, and supportive therapy to tailor care to each person’s needs.
I have been a LPC for over 10 years and have worked with a very diverse group of clients. They range in age from 6 to 60. I specialize in adolescents and trauma. I have also worked with depression, anxiety, personal relationships, parenting problems, addictions, emotional abuse, and physical trauma.
I enjoy learning about ways we can change and understand our human existence. We are thinking, feeling and doing beings. Cognitive behavioral therapy provides a framework to identify ways to do it differently and better. Trauma treatment modalities like EMDR may support processing neurological and physiological reactions and being able to feel secure and safe while staying connected to others more fully. Our story is just that; we write it and edit it. We get to choose the chapters and path of our lives, through the unknowns, mysteries and celebrations.
I believe trust is cultivated through transparency. I integrate evidence-based care with treatment. Treatment can open unique pathways towards emotional breakthrough and has shown a remarkable ability to reduce symptoms rapidly.

I work with adults and seniors navigating anxiety, depression, trauma, PTSD, borderline personality, grief, and serious mental illness. I am also deeply committed to supporting first responders and military communities through my work with the Red Blue Foundation.
My practice is telehealth-based in Idaho. I am a licensed clinical supervisor, and I look forward to seeing if we are a good fit.
