Great to meet you!

Hello, I'm Dr. Emelia Appiagyei, a triple board-certified Nurse Practitioner specializing in Psychiatric-Mental Health, Family Practice, and Adult-Gerontology Primary Care, with over 35 years of experience in healthcare. I received my psychiatric mental health education from the University of Illinois Chicago. My background in both primary care and psychiatry allows me to approach mental health from a whole-person perspective, recognizing the close connection between physical and emotional well-being. I help people manage conditions like depression, anxiety, bipolar disorder, OCD, PTSD, eating disorder, autism, ADHD, and psychotic disorders

My treatment approach is individualized and may include medication management, supportive counselling, and collaboration with other healthcare providers to ensure that you get well-rounded care

What you can expect from me

My goal is providing a safe and judgement-free space where you feel heard, respected, and supported. I will work alongside you to build lasting wellness, mind and body. If you're looking for psychiatry and medication management, I'm here to help you take the next step towards feeling your best.
