Great to meet you!

My name is Chinyere Ezinne Chukwuka APRN, PMHNP-BC. I am a Board Certified Psychiatric Nurse Practitioner with over 21 years experience in healthcare. I graduated from University of Texas School of Nursing, Houston, Texas with my Bachelors of Science in Nursing and advanced to obtain masters degree as a Psychiatric Nurse Practitioner from Walden University. My areas of expertise include the treatment of depressive disorders, anxiety disorders, schizophrenia, bipolar disorders, ADHD and OCD.

A bit about my approach to therapy

My clients and I have a friendly chat about their feelings and thoughts without being judgmental. Throughout their treatment, I cheer them on as they try new things and make progress, no matter how small the progress may be. I simply focus on being warm and understanding in order to help everyone feel safe and cared for. My areas of expertise include the treatment of depressive disorders, anxiety disorders, schizophrenia, bipolar disorders, ADHD and OCD.

What you can expect from our first session

My clients should expect to leave a session with a personalized treatment plan, including specific goals and strategies to manage their health condition, which may involve a thorough understanding of their diagnosis, potential treatment options, prescribed medications, education on self care practices, clear next steps for follow up care, and a feeling of being heard, and actively involved in their health care decisions; ultimately aiming to improve their overall health and well-being.
