Hello! I am Nneka, a PMHNP-DNP. I provide holistic, integrative psychiatric care to adolescents and adults with depression, Anxiety, Bipolar,ADHD, mood, and trauma disorders, partnering with clients and their families to help them to achieve their health goals. I engage in open and honest communication with my clients and help them understand that the journey to wellness and recovery requires patience and effort. I am non-judgmental and strive to provide safe and empathetic care. My goal is to assist in facilitating overall wellness for my clients and their loved ones. My approach is very warm and interactive. I believe in treating everyone with respect, compassion, and kindness. I will tailor our sessions and your treatment plan to your individual needs and meet you where you are in life. While I prescribe medications when needed, I address other factors that may be impacting your mental health such as exercise, sleep, nutrition, lifestyle, relationships, and coping skills.

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

Interactive and patient centered approach. As a PMHNP, I can combine my passion for nursing with my desire to make a meaningful difference in the lives of those struggling with mental health issues.

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

My inspiration to become a PMHNP stemmed from my experiences as a registered nurse working in various healthcare settings. I noticed that mental health was often overlooked or not given the same level of attention as physical health, despite its significant impact on patients’ overall well-being. This realization motivated me to pursue a career where I could directly address this gap and advocate for comprehensive care. During my nursing education, I had the opportunity to work with psychiatric patients and found it incredibly rewarding to help them navigate their mental health challenges. Building therapeutic relationships with these individuals and witnessing their progress over time solidified my decision to specialize in psychiatric mental health.
