Heather Noerrlinger Transitions to Behavioral Health Role
June 3 2026

Syracuse Area Health is pleased to announce that Heather Noerrlinger, APRN, FNP-C, PMHNP-C, will be transitioning from her current family medicine role into behavioral health as a Psychiatric-Mental Health Nurse Practitioner.

Heather has been a valued member of the Syracuse Area Health care team, providing compassionate, patient-centered care to individuals and families. In her new role, she will focus on supporting patients’ mental and emotional well-being through evaluation, treatment, and ongoing behavioral health care.

“As a PMHNP, it is rewarding to build a therapeutic relationship founded on trust, empathy, and nonjudgmental care,” said Noerrlinger. “Many patients feel unheard or stigmatized before seeking treatment, so providing a safe environment where they feel validated and supported can make a profound difference. Mental health conditions often affect every area of a person’s functioning, including relationships, work, self-esteem, and overall sense of hope. My goal is to foster healing, resilience, and hope while making meaningful human connections daily.”

Noerrlinger will see patients at Syracuse Area Health’s Syracuse Clinic, North Clinic, and Sagewell Family Medicine in Hickman, Nebraska.

This transition reflects Syracuse Area Health’s continued commitment to expanding access to care that supports the whole person—mind and body—close to home. By offering behavioral health services in multiple locations, Syracuse Area Health continues its mission of providing Compassionate Care, Healthy Communities throughout Southeast Nebraska.
