Irene Essien-Akpan

I am an empathetic and skilled certified Psychiatric and Mental Health Nurse Practitioner. I graduated from Walden University with an MSN in Psychiatric and Mental Health

I care for individuals with mental health disorders: depression, anxiety, attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder, personality disorders, and substance use disorder

I employ an integrated and evidence-based approach to help my clients overcome their illnesses, optimize their function, and reach their maximum potential to become the person they aspire to be.

I assist individuals with substance use disorders to overcome their addictions, free themselves from the grip of substance dependence.

Do not allow your mental health problems to define who you are or limit you. I am here to assist you in your struggles and journey to wholeness.

My approach to care is to understand the individual and their unique needs and struggles, and together we find the best approach to solve each patient's needs

My clients, after their first session with me, will know that I heard them and understand their struggles, and that I am willing to walk with them at their own pace.
