Kassi Hooper

Kassi Hooper, MSN, PMHNP-BC, is a dedicated and compassionate Psychiatric-Mental Health Nurse Practitioner specializing in trauma-informed care, treatment-resistant depression, and holistic mental health support. With many years of experience in both inpatient and outpatient settings, she brings a deep understanding of how trauma affects the mind and body—and how healing begins with both being seen and heard.

Holding both her BSN and MSN from the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, she has provided care in a wide range of clinical environments, including private practice, state psychiatric hospitals, community mental health clinics, and maximum-security settings. Her experience at Central Prison in Raleigh sparked a deeper interest in trauma and led her to pursue additional training through the Trauma Research Foundation and the Annual Boston International Trauma Conference.

She incorporates evidence-based practices such as TMS and Spravato (esketamine) treatment for patients with treatment-resistant depression, blending advanced psychiatric interventions with empathy and insight. Her holistic, patient-centered approach is always guided by the lived experiences, goals, and values of the individuals she serves.

Through her calm presence, clinical expertise, and passion for trauma recovery, she helps patients move toward stability, self-understanding, and long-term wellness.
