Sydney Kiker

Psychiatric Nurse Practitioner, PMHNP
Last Updated 420 days ago

Hi, I’m Sydney. I’m a psychiatric nurse practitioner seeing patients virtually across Virginia.

I specialize in helping adults with depression, anxiety, bipolar disorder, binge eating, trauma, or those seeking general support for stress or life transitions. I also assess transgender and gender-diverse adults for gender-affirming medical and surgical treatment, and offer ADHD testing for evaluation, diagnosis, and treatment.

I don’t believe in one-size-fits-all care — you’re not a diagnosis or a checklist. You’re a whole person, and I meet you as such. Our work together is collaborative. We’ll talk about what’s working, what isn’t, and what’s possible. I’ll always meet you where you are—whether that’s with medication support, psychoeducation, diagnostic clarity, or simply making space for you to process and be heard

I blend the best of both Western medicine and Eastern healing traditions to create a treatment plan that’s as unique as you are. That might include prescription medications, herbal or plant-based options, lifestyle shifts, and talk therapy — all working together to support your healing and growth.

I’m not anti-medication, but I am thoughtful about its use. If you're looking to reduce or simplify your medication regimen, I bring experience in safe, collaborative de-prescribing. We’ll work together to make choices that feel right for you — at your pace and on your terms. This is not about me telling you what to do—it’s about us exploring what’s working, what isn’t, and what’s possible.

We may be a good fit if:
✓ You’re seeking treatment for Anxiety, Depression, ADHD, Bipolar Disorder, Binge Eating, OCD, PTSD, or general life stress
✓ You want care from an LGBTQIA+ provider
✓ You’re interested in reducing medications and exploring holistic options
✓ You’re unsure about your diagnosis, have multiple diagnoses, or feel past ones missed the mark
✓ You are seeking an evaluation for ADHD.
✓ You’ve tried several psychiatric meds without success or are sensitive to medications
