Meet Kimberly Nowack
Compassionate Psychiatric Nurse Practitioner | Integrative Therapies Advocate
I am Kimberly A. Nowack, a dedicated Psychiatric Nurse Practitioner with a passion for mental health care. With a Master’s degree in Psychiatric Nursing from Kent State University, I have been committed to helping patients since May 2022.
I specialize in using integrative psychiatric therapies to support patients on their mental health journey. My background includes experience in pediatric, emergency, and mental health nursing, making me a flexible and compassionate caregiver. My career at Summa Health System has shaped me into a skilled provider, capable of conducting mental health assessments, prescribing medications, providing talk therapy, and offering compassionate care for a range of conditions such as anxiety, depression, panic disorders, and more.
I prioritize clear communication and understand the importance of holistic care. I'm also an advocate for integrative therapies and self-care practices that help empower patients in their treatment. My goal is to provide a supportive and understanding environment for every patient I meet.
