JEFFERSON COUNTY, MO — Chestnut Health Systems™ announces the addition of Bonnie Huff, a board-certified psychiatric mental health nurse practitioner, to its team serving Jefferson County, MO. In this role, Huff will help expand access to mental health services for individuals across the region.

Huff takes a collaborative, compassionate, and individualized approach to care, working closely with clients to understand their concerns and goals. She emphasizes open communication and partnering with each person to develop treatment plans that reflect their values and lifestyle.

"I aim to treat the whole-person, not just the condition," stated Huff. She values the opportunity to provide support and education while fostering a safe, respectful environment where clients feel heard and understood.

She will be providing care at both Chestnut Health Systems locations at 102 4th St., Hillsboro, MO and 400 Boyd St., De Soto, MO. The addition of Huff reflects Chestnut's ongoing commitment to increasing access to high-quality behavioral health services and meeting the growing needs of the communities it serves.

Chestnut is still actively seeking additional APRNs to expand services. We welcome qualified professionals who are passionate about making a difference to join our team. If interested, visit chestnut.org/careers.
