Brooke Smith is a board-certified psychiatric mental health nurse practitioner. She focuses on psychiatry and psycho-oncology (mental health care for people with cancer).
When several of her family members were diagnosed with cancer, Smith became inspired to become an oncology nurse. She observed many patients who were facing mental health challenges, and those experiences led to her career focus.
Smith received her master’s degree in psychiatric mental health at the University of South Carolina.
Outside of work, she loves spending time with her husband and 2 daughters. Smith enjoys movies, jigsaw puzzles, reading, live music and traveling, especially to visit family in her home state of Vermont.
