Great to meet you!

She is particularly experienced with re-entry patients transitioning back to the community after being incarcerated and away.

My approach to therapy

Chidi is passionate about assisting people who are struggling with substance addiction and mental illnesses, driven by the various factors that contribute to the development of different types of psychiatric conditions. She strives to provide comprehensive, inclusive, affordable, and compassionate psychiatric care in an outpatient setting, focusing on a patient-centered care plan that respects the patient’s wants, needs, beliefs, and values.

What you can expect from me

During our first session, patients will be introduced to some screening and diagnostic tools to help identify their mental health challenges. Using these tools, patient reports, and clinical observations, a diagnosis will be made, and medication will be prescribed based on the available findings. Client Will Chidi is a friendly, empowering, and motivational provider dedicated to her patient’s well-being. She provides services with care, always keeping their satisfaction in mind.
