Great to meet you!

I am David Nyakundi, a Psychiatric-Mental Health Nurse Practitioner providing care to children, adolescents, adults, and older adults. I work with individuals experiencing anxiety, depression, ADHD, bipolar disorder, schizophrenia, substance use concerns, and other mental health conditions.

I believe good mental health care starts with listening and understanding each person’s individual needs. I work together with my patients and, when appropriate, their families to develop a treatment plan that may include medication management, supportive therapy, education, and lifestyle changes.

My goal is to provide a comfortable and respectful environment where you can openly discuss your concerns and be involved in decisions about your care. Whether you are seeking care for yourself or your child, I look forward to working with you

My approach to therapy

I take a collaborative and practical approach to care. I listen carefully to understand what you are experiencing, how it is affecting your daily life, and what you hope to improve. We will discuss treatment options together and develop a plan that fits your needs. I want my patients and families to feel comfortable asking questions and being involved in their care.

What you can expect from me

During your first visit, we will take time to understand what brings you in and what you would like help with. We will review your symptoms, medical and psychiatric history, current medications, and other factors that may be affecting your mental health. For children and adolescents, I will also involve parents or caregivers when appropriate. We will then discuss my recommendations, answer your questions, and decide together on the next steps.
