Hi! I'm a psychiatric mental health nurse practitioner based in Minnesota. I received my Masters from Liberty University, Virginia, and have been practicing for 2 years. I help young adults struggling with anxiety, depression, career stress, and burnout become the best versions of themselves. I want to offer my clients guidance that can change their lives so they can overcome challenging circumstances, work with the assessment team, and continue their treatment and medication management. I have strong analytical skills, work well under pressure, and enjoy participating in the clinical team. I am committed to my goal and believe I have the necessary qualities as a successful mental health nurse practitioner.
In our first session together, we'll start with brief introductions, then dive into the specific challenges you're facing. This will help me create a tailored plan for us to work through in follow-up sessions.
Having worked with young professionals for the past 2 years, I've developed a tried-and-true playbook for helping you (a) identify the root cause of your challenges and (b) create a tailored plan that leads to measurable progress.
I love working with young people who are in the first few years of their careers and older adults as well . My clients are eager to improve, but don't yet have the tools needed to make this goal a reality. They often feel stuck, overwhelmed, and anxious about their careers and social lives in general.

Dr. Chinwe is amazing! I’m glad I found her. She is direct, warm, understanding and I wish I could afford to meet with Dr. Chinwe frequently. She inspires me to keep moving forward; taking one step at a time. I am glad I was referred to Dr. Chinwe. I look forward to our next meeting!

I enjoyed my appointment with Dr. Chinwe today. I feel like she knew just what to ask to get to the root of what I needed. I would work with her again.
