Katherine Humphrey is an Assistant Professor at Johns Hopkins School of Nursing and is a dual certified psychiatric-mental health and family primary care nurse practitioner. Her clinical education and scholarship focus on mental health care, nurse well-being, and nurse leadership opportunities to enhance organizational culture and safety. Specialty interests include workplace violence prevention, psychiatric nursing, substance use disorder, and integrated care models. Dr. Humphrey provides a holistic approach to patient care and hopes to share with students how our mental health and physical health are connected and influenced by social and environmental experiences. Her prior work in EMS, cardiology, and the National Institutes of Health (NIH) as a clinical research nurse in hematology/oncology/bone marrow transplant inspired her to incorporate mental health care into all nursing care. Dr. Humphrey currently supports patients in her practice with primary care and mental health telemedicine. She loves mentoring student nurses, helping students transition into professional practice, and build the skills needed to support communities and their health care needs.
