Christy Umenwa
I am a board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner dedicated to providing compassionate, evidence-based care. I specialize in treating ADHD, anxiety, depression, and related conditions through a structured and personalized approach.
By combining medication management with practical guidance and education, I help patients gain clarity, build confidence in their treatment, and make meaningful, lasting improvements in their daily lives.
My goal is to help you gain clarity, improve daily functioning, and feel more in control of your mental health. I value collaboration, clear communication, and creating a supportive space where you feel heard and empowered in your care.
First session
In your first session, we’ll complete a comprehensive evaluation to understand your concerns, history, and goals. We’ll discuss possible diagnoses and begin outlining a personalized treatment plan, which may include medication and supportive strategies. You’ll have time to ask questions, and we’ll work together to ensure you feel comfortable and supported moving forward.
Strengths
I provide structured, patient-centered care with a focus on accurate diagnosis and personalized treatment planning. Patients often appreciate my clear communication, supportive approach, and the time I take to ensure they feel heard and understood. By combining medication management with practical guidance and education, I help patients gain clarity, build confidence in their treatment, and make meaningful, lasting improvements in their daily lives.
Ideal clients
My ideal client is an individual seeking support for mood disorders, ADHD, anxiety, depression, or related concerns who is motivated to better understand their mental health and engage in treatment. They are open to a structured, collaborative approach that may include medication management, psychoeducation, and practical strategies to improve daily functioning. They value clear communication, are willing to participate in follow-up care, and are interested in developing long-term skills to support focus, emotional regulation, and overall well-being.
Treatment methods
Psychoeducation
I incorporate psychoeducation by explaining diagnosis in simple terms and setting expectations for medications. These help patients understand their diagnosis, treatment options, and what to expect—so they can make informed decisions and feel more in control of their care.
