Hello! My name is Udo Chukwuocha, a doctoral prepared nurse practitioner with specialties in psychiatric mental health and family practice. I believe mental health is fundamental to overall health and wellness, and I would love to partner with you to maximize your well-being. I work with individuals to identify those life experiences that have led them to seek care. I know that reaching out for help may not always be easy, but I’m here for you! We can work together to improve symptoms of anxiety, depression, OCD, insomnia, bipolar disorder, PTSD, and ADHD, among others. I focus on medication management and recommend therapy, diagnostics, & lifestyle changes that will support overall wellness. I treat adults (18+) located in Texas, California, and Washington State though stimulant prescribing may ONLY be done in California and Washington State. I DO NOT prescribe stimulant medications in the state of Texas. However, we can discuss and prescribe non-stimulant options for ADHD. I look forward to meeting with you to see how I can assist you in your wellness journey.

What can clients expect to take away from sessions with you?

Your wellness is my priority; therefore, it is important to me that I create a comfortable and welcoming environment from the initial visit to any necessary follow-up care. It is my goal to provide you with the best information to allow you to make an informed and comfortable choice for yourself, whether that is incorporating medication into your treatment or not. My hope is that you leave every visit feeling like your concerns have been heard and addressed, you are well-informed, and confident that your mental health and overall wellness are moving in the right direction. During your initial visit, I will be attentive to your concerns, evaluate your condition, and gather any necessary information to address the reason for the visit. I will then determine appropriate diagnosis, and collaborate with you to create treatment plan that’s best for you needs.

Explain to clients what areas you feel are your biggest strengths.

My focus areas are anxiety, depression, bipolar disorder, sleep issues, PTSD, and ADHD, but I treat all mental health conditions. I believe mental health is fundamental to overall health and wellness. My true passion is helping people achieve their mental wellness goals.
