Great to meet you!

I was born in Nigeria, West Africa, and I am Board Certified as a Family and Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner. I began my nursing career as a Licensed Practical Nurse (LPN) after graduating from Lake Michigan College (LMC). I later earned my bachelor’s degree in nursing from Indiana University Northwest and my master’s degree from Governor’s State University. I also hold a post-master’s certificate in psychiatric mental health, from the University of Texas Rio Grande Valley.

My approach to therapy

Are you looking for a loving, caring, and compassionate Psychiatric Mental Health Provider? My Services include managing grief/bereavement, mild to moderate major depressive disorder, seasonal affective disorder, Generalized and social anxiety disorders. I offer holistic, culturally competent, evidence-based, and faith-based services that promote mental well-being. My goal is to provide compassionate, respectful, confidential, and effective care to all my patients. Thanks! Looking forward to collaborating with you.

What you can expect from me

To ensure a well-rounded approach to your mental health care, I combine therapy or counseling with medication management that are related to depression and anxiety and with your consent, I make referrals as needed, to trusted professionals. This allows us to tailor your treatment plan to best meet your specific needs and ensure you receive the most comprehensive care possible.
