Uddy Ukpong, PMHNP-BC Founder of Clarity Springs Psychiatry, Scottsdale, AZ

Evening and weekend appointments available. Same-day appointments available upon request.

Hi, I’m Uduak “Uddy” Ukpong, a board-certified psychiatric mental health nurse practitioner and founder of Clarity Springs Psychiatry. I help adults navigating ADHD, anxiety, depression, bipolar disorder, trauma, and grief, with a special focus on professional women and college students.

You may be keeping up with work, school, or family while quietly struggling with scattered thoughts, constant worry, low motivation, or exhaustion. I offer psychiatric evaluations and personalized medication management to help you understand your symptoms and find a treatment approach that fits your life. Adults of all genders are welcome. Telehealth appointments are available in Arizona.

My approach to therapy

My Approach

I want to understand both your symptoms and the life you're managing around them. We'll talk about your health history, sleep, relationships, daily responsibilities, and what you hope will change.

My approach combines evidence-based psychiatric care with practical support and shared decision-making. If medication is appropriate, we'll discuss its potential benefits, side effects, and alternatives so you can make an informed choice. Follow-up appointments give us time to review what's helping and adjust what isn't.

My care is culturally responsive and grief-informed. When helpful, we can also discuss working with a therapist or coordinating with your other healthcare providers.

What you can expect from me

You can expect a thoughtful conversation, clear explanations, and room to ask questions. You don't need to arrive with a diagnosis or know which medication you want.

During your first appointment, we'll explore what brought you to care, how your symptoms affect everyday life, and any previous treatment experiences. We'll discuss my assessment and agree on next steps together.

Our goals might include improving focus, reducing worry, supporting a steadier mood, or making daily responsibilities feel more manageable. I'll listen to your priorities and check in on how treatment is working for you.
