Welcome! I’m Chris Mokongu, a Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner dedicated to providing compassionate, personalized care to individuals seeking support on their mental health journey. With a deep commitment to understanding and helping you navigate your challenges, I offer a holistic, patient-centered approach to care. I received my Psychiatric Nurse Practitioner degree from the University of North Dakota and am licensed in Minnesota, Oregon, and North Dakota. Whether you’re struggling with anxiety, depression, ADHD, or other mental health challenges, or simply feeling overwhelmed by day-to-day life, I’m here to support you. I believe that true mental health care involves more than just treating symptoms—it’s about understanding the whole person and crafting a treatment plan that works for you as an individual.

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

In the first session, clients can expect a warm, welcoming, and judgment-free environment. We will take the time to explore your concerns, goals, and any challenges you’re facing. I’ll ask about your mental health history, lifestyle, and what you hope to achieve in treatment. With a primary focus on medication management, we’ll discuss potential treatment options and how they align with your unique needs. This session is about understanding you as a whole person and setting the foundation for a personalized care plan that supports your journey to better mental health.

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

My greatest strengths as a provider lie in my compassionate and empathetic approach, as well as my ability to connect with patients on a personal level. With over 10 years of experience in mental health, I bring a deep understanding of how the mind, body, and soul are interconnected. I excel at tailoring care to each individual’s unique needs and goals, ensuring that treatment plans are collaborative and patient-centered. Additionally, my expertise in medication management, coupled with a holistic perspective, allows me to provide comprehensive care that addresses both immediate symptoms and long-term well-being.

Describe the client(s) you are best positioned to serve.

I am best positioned to serve individuals of all age groups—adolescents, adults, and seniors—seeking compassionate, patient-centered care for mental health challenges such as depression, anxiety, PTSD, trauma, ADHD, and more. My integrative approach is ideal for those who value holistic care that considers the connection between mind, body, and soul. Whether you’re starting your mental health journey or looking for a collaborative partner to achieve your goals, I am here to guide and support you every step of the way.
