Getting to know Kate Swartz
I’m a board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health and Family Nurse Practitioner. I see adults, teens, and kids in my Issaquah office and across Washington via telehealth.
People come to me for all kinds of reasons: a professional who's been pushing through anxiety, depression, burnout, or sleep problems for years, a teen who feels overwhelmed, or a kid who can't focus in class. Some are managing more complex conditions like bipolar disorder, schizophrenia, or substance use. Others just want to get back to baseline. Steadier, sharper, more resilient.
What I offer is medication management grounded in evidence and paired with a view of the whole picture. How you're sleeping, what stress looks like in your life, your relationships, and your physical health factor in. Medication is often part of the answer, but it works best within a bigger plan.
My approach is collaborative. You might have spent real time trying to understand what's going on before you ever walked through my door. I honor that work, and I want to hear what you've learned.
When I'm not at the office, I love to be outside hiking in the mountains, paddleboarding on Lake Sammamish, gardening, or scuba diving. At home I have two teenagers, a husband, an exotic cat, a big white dog, and more houseplants than I'll admit to.
I look forward to working with you.

I have never had a provider validate my feelings and symptoms so much. I made the appointment for medication management, and Mrs. Swartz was so welcoming and warm. She was extremely informative with her recommendations and made sure to really get to know me even on my first visit. She's incredible and I'm so glad I found her!
