Hi, I’m Mercy Nyeche, DNP, PMHNP-BC. I’m a board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner dedicated to helping adults regain clarity, confidence, and emotional balance.

Reaching out for support can feel overwhelming especially when you’re used to being the strong one for everyone else. Whether you’re navigating anxiety, depression, burnout, life transitions, or feeling stuck in patterns that no longer serve you, you don’t have to do it alone.

My approach is compassionate, collaborative, and evidence-based. I take time to truly listen, understand your goals, and create a personalized treatment plan that fits your life, not just your symptoms.

Please note that I do not provide disability paperwork, leave of absence documentation, FMLA forms, legal letters, school accommodation letters, or other administrative forms. The only documentation I provide is a work excuse note for the date of your appointment and, when clinically appropriate based on my evaluation and professional judgment, up to three (3) days off from work. If you require any of the services or documentation listed above, I kindly ask that you schedule with another provider who offers those services. Thank you for your understanding and for helping ensure that your healthcare needs are matched with the appropriate provider.

Welcome to my therapy practice. If you are anxious and feeling overwhelmed, therapy can help you find relief. If it is hard to say no and you are exhausted from taking care of everyone but yourself, my approach will help you to set healthy boundaries. Are you feeling stuck?

Together we will heal the pain of your inner child.

My goal is to help you to achieve a better sense of fulfillment and serenity.

My approach addresses challenges with grief and loss, relationships, substance use and codependency. With my more than 35 years of experience, I am confident that we will find a way to help you to achieve a better sense of fulfillment and serenity.
