This week Clint talks to Kayla Kinnebrew. Kayla is a board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner (PMHNP) with a strong foundation in nursing and over a decade of clinical experience. She earned my Bachelor of Science in Nursing from Louisiana Tech University and later completed my Master of Science in Nursing at Northwestern State University, specializing as a PMHNP.
Before entering advanced practice, Kayla spent 11 years as a registered nurse, with most of her career in the fast-paced environment of the emergency department. This experience gave her the opportunity to care for individuals from all walks of life, deepening her understanding of the diverse needs and challenges people face when it comes to mental health.
Kayla provides compassionate and comprehensive psychiatric services to adults, including assessment, diagnosis, and medication management for a variety of mental health conditions. She believes in a collaborative approach to care—partnering with each client to create individualized treatment plans that incorporate both medication and supportive counseling. Kayla's passion lies in helping clients find balance and renewed hope through integrated, person-centered mental health care.
