Prioritizing your mental health takes a lot of courage and I'm proud of you for taking that first step. I graduated from Salisbury University in 2022 with a Masters of Social Work. I currently have my LCSW-C licensure. I have expertise working with depression, anxiety, mood disorders, trauma, and relationship issues.
You should know that I take your concerns seriously, and I will meet you with compassion, respect, and zero judgment. I understand that reaching out for mental health support can feel intimidating, especially if you have faced stigma, felt dismissed in the past, or worried about what a diagnosis might mean. My goal is to help you feel safe and at ease from the very first conversation.
As a doctoral-prepared, board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner with over eight years of experience in psychiatric and mental health care, I work with individuals across the lifespan. I commonly support people navigating depression, anxiety, PTSD, stress-related concerns, bipolar disorder, ADHD, and other emotional or behavioral health challenges. I approach each person as a whole, not a label, and I take the time to understand your symptoms in the context of your life, your stressors, your strengths, and your goals.
In our work together, you can expect a collaborative, patient-centered approach. I believe treatment works best when you feel heard and involved, so we will discuss what you are experiencing, what has helped or not helped in the past, and what you want to be different moving forward. If medication is part of your care, I prioritize thoughtful, evidence-based decisions, clear education about options, and ongoing adjustments based on your response and preferences. I also value practical strategies and supportive guidance that you can apply between sessions.
Most importantly, I am passionate about each person I serve because I know you are important, and I recognize the courage it takes to seek help. My role is to offer steady, professional support and a trusting relationship as you work toward clarity, stability, and lasting wellness.
In my role as a board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner, I place great importance on prioritizing mental health as a fundamental component of achieving happiness and stability in life. I understand that seeking help can be a daunting task, so I want to acknowledge and commend you for taking that important first step. With some years of experience in clinical and practice, I have learned to provide care to patients of all age groups and populations with mental illnesses.

I'm Francis Aneke, and I work with adults navigating mood disorders, anxiety, and depression. I believe healing happens when you feel genuinely heard — not rushed through a checklist. My practice is built on the idea that mental health doesn't exist in a vacuum: your relationships, work, sleep, body, and history all shape how you feel today. Whether you've been in therapy for years or are reaching out for the first time, my goal is to make this space feel like one where you can show up exactly as you are. Together, we'll work toward the kind of relief and clarity that lasts beyond our sessions.
I’m a therapist with more than 10 years experience in the field, in a wide variety of different settings. I prefer to utilize a Person-Centered, Solution-Focused perspective in providing treatment, and I'm highly practiced in a variety of CBT-based techniques.

I provide a welcoming and supportive space for individuals and families facing mental health challenges. I work closely with my clients to help them manage concerns such as anxiety, depression, ADHD, bipolar disorder, and other mental health conditions. My goal is to help you feel heard, understood, and supported every step of the way.
