A bit about my approach to therapy

Dr. Uyanwune brings a holistic approach in her treatment of behavioral health problems. She believes in wellness and reviews the client as a whole person, incorporating all aspects of an individual mentally, physically and psychologically. She believes "less is more" by striving to use medication only when needed and uses the minimal amount of it to fully treat and target symptoms.

In addition to medication management, MIU Center offers Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation as an option for treatment, especially for clients who have had side effects and other adverse reactions to medications.

What you can expect from our first session

Patients will learn more about their symptoms, diagnoses, and different approaches used in treating their symptoms. They can ask questions and leave with a fuller understanding of themselves, their treatment goals and the roles and actions of specific medications in this.

Dr. Uyanwune's motto for her patients is to, 'Reach your fullest potential'. In working with Dr Uyanwune, one can expect to gain a deeper understanding of their mental health and have a clear, personalized plan for treatment and healing. Dr. Uyanwune works to maintain a supportive and empathetic environment, where clients feel heard, respected, and empowered to take positive steps toward healing.
