Two Organizations. One Mission. A Career Beyond Traditional Patient Care.

What if your next position offered more than seeing patients, writing notes, and repeating the same clinical routine?

Northwest Ketamine Clinics (NWKC) and Northwest Healing & Wellness (NWHW) are seeking an experienced, compassionate Nurse Practitioner who wants to make a meaningful impact, not only on patients' lives, but on the future of two rapidly growing healthcare organizations.

This is an opportunity to practice with autonomy, mentor clinical teams, help develop innovative treatment programs, and play an active role in expanding access to mental healthcare.

Four-day workweek. Clinical autonomy. Leadership opportunities.

Innovative medicine. Real impact.

We are looking for someone who wants to help build something, not simply fill a position.

Who We Are

Northwest Ketamine Clinics (NWKC) is the first and largest freestanding ketamine infusion clinic in the Pacific Northwest. As a family-owned, nurse-practitioner-led organization, NWKC specializes in IV ketamine therapy for individuals struggling with treatment-resistant depression, PTSD, anxiety, chronic pain, and other complex conditions.

Northwest Healing & Wellness (NWHW) expands our ability to serve patients through insurance-based psychiatric and behavioral healthcare, including Spravato, Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (TMS), psychiatric medication management, and other emerging treatment options.

Together, our organizations create a more comprehensive approach to mental healthcare, combining innovative interventional treatments with ongoing psychiatric support.

With shared clinical locations in Bellevue, Seattle, and Tacoma, we are building an integrated care environment where providers can collaborate across treatment modalities and help patients access the care they need.

Our philosophy is simple

Exceptional patient outcomes begin with empowered clinical professionals.

We believe Nurse Practitioners should practice at the highest level of their license, have a meaningful voice in clinical decisions, and be supported by an organization that invests in their success.
