Kimorra Morrell BSN RN

Pediatric & Neuroscience nurse

My name is Kimorra Morrell, and I am the Founder and CEO of Psychamine, a pediatric mental health and neuroscience organization dedicated to research, education, and community outreach. As a Registered Nurse with experience in neurosurgery, pediatrics, and psychiatric care, I created Psychamine in memory of my best friend who passed away in 2021 — transforming loss into purpose. Through Psychamine, I strive to make neuroscience accessible, mental health less stigmatized, and compassion the foundation of every conversation. My mission is to educate, empower, and inspire others to see the beauty in healing minds through science, empathy, and understanding.

Why learn about childhood neuroscience?
Understanding how a child’s brain develops helps us recognize early signs of emotional, behavioral, and neurological changes. At Psychamine, we believe knowledge inspires compassion — empowering families and professionals to respond with care, support, and awareness.

Fact based statistics
A child’s brain grows at an incredible rate — forming over one million new neural connections every second in the early years of life. By age five, nearly 90% of brain development is complete, laying the foundation for learning, behavior, and emotional health. Understanding these changes helps parents, educators, and healthcare providers recognize early signs of neurological or psychological challenges

Community support
Many families face barriers when it comes to understanding childhood neurological and mental health conditions — from limited resources to stigma and lack of education. Psychamine provides community support needed to bridge those gaps.

WARNING SIGNS OF DEPRESSION
Persistent sadness or hopelessness that lasts most days. Changes in sleep or appetite, such as sleeping too much or too little and loss of interest in activities once enjoyed or withdrawal from others. These are the most common signs of depression in general.

HOW SYMPTOMS MANIFEST IN CHILDREN
Depression in children often looks different than in adults. Instead of constant sadness, kids may show irritability, frequent mood swings, or sudden anger. You might also notice withdrawal from friends, declining grades, changes in sleep or appetite, or frequent complaints of headaches or stomachaches with no medical cause. These signs can reflect emotional distress and deserve gentle attention and early support.

EARLY INTERVENTIONS
Early intervention can make a lifelong difference. Encourage open communication so children feel safe expressing their emotions. Provide consistent routines, positive reinforcement, and access to mental health professionals when needed. Schools, families, and communities working together can help children build healthy coping skills and emotional resilience before symptoms worsen.
