Ronald R. Hall, APRN, MSN, PMHNP-BC.

My mental health career began in 1995 when I started working at group homes in Wichita Falls. I began employment at NTSH working in a variety of capacities over a ten year period before transferring to Red River Hospital to direct nursing care. I believe the sum of my lived experience has prepared me to now serve as a PMHNP. It is exciting to be part of the healing process for those with emotional need. I believe in utilizing a holistic model as we work together to help you find balance in your life.
