kouhede Sossou
I’m Kouhede Sossou, a board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner providing telehealth care to adults across Texas. I help individuals manage anxiety, depression, ADHD, trauma-related concerns, and sleep difficulties through psychiatric evaluations, medication management, and supportive care. My approach is compassionate and collaborative, with a focus on listening and creating treatment plans that reflect your needs and goals. I speak English and French and strive to help every client feel heard, respected, and supported.
First session
During our first session, we will discuss your concerns, symptoms, medical and mental health history, current medications, and treatment goals. I will listen, ask questions, and explain my assessment and recommendations. Together, we will discuss treatment options, including medication when appropriate, and establish next steps. My goal is for you to leave feeling heard, informed, and clearer about your care plan.
Strengths
My nursing background, including experience in mental health settings, shapes my attention to both emotional and physical well-being. I speak English and French and respect the cultural backgrounds and life experiences each person brings. My goal is to offer a welcoming, nonjudgmental space where you feel heard, respected, and supported as we work toward meaningful improvements in your everyday life.
Ideal clients
I work with adults ages 18–65 experiencing anxiety, depression, ADHD symptoms, trauma-related concerns, sleep difficulties, or stressful life transitions. My ideal client is seeking compassionate care to better understand their symptoms and explore treatment options. Together, we set practical goals for improving mood, focus, sleep, and daily functioning. I welcome clients seeking their first psychiatric evaluation or ongoing medication management in a respectful, collaborative environment.
Treatment methods
Cognitive Behavioral (CBT)
Follow-up visits will focus on your progress, current concerns, and how treatment fits into your daily life. We will review symptoms, medication benefits and side effects, sleep, and daily functioning, adjusting your plan when needed. I will also offer education and supportive strategies. Together, we will track changes over time and work toward your goals, with space for questions and shared decisions throughout your care.
