Taking that initial step into therapy can be daunting. Sharing your story is a vulnerable position no doubt, and I am proud of you for even making the decision to seek help. Because I know how much courage this takes, I absolutely promise to honor you and walk alongside of you as you work towards your goals in counseling. In addition to helping individuals with anxiety and depression, I am certified in dialectical behavior therapy and practice accelerated resolution therapy. I also incorporate christian counseling, sand-tray therapy, mindfulness based-therapy, cognitive-behavioral therapy, and incorporate narrative therapy techniques.

Emmaculate Awasom

Psychiatric Mental Health NP

Virtual • Minnesota


I have been working in the mental health field for the past seven years, with a strong foundation in nursing and psychiatric care. I earned my Bachelor of Science in Nursing in 2019 and began my career on a behavioral health unit, where I gained extensive experience supporting individuals with both acute and chronic mental health conditions.

In 2024, I completed my Master of Science in Nursing and became a Psychiatric–Mental Health Nurse Practitioner (PMHNP). Over the past two years in advanced practice, I have provided comprehensive psychiatric evaluations, medication management, and ongoing treatment for a wide range of mental health disorders.

My clinical experience includes addiction medicine and Medication-Assisted Treatment (MAT), as well as the management of depression, anxiety disorders, bipolar disorder, schizophrenia, and ADHD. I am committed to delivering compassionate, evidence-based, and patient-centered care. I work collaboratively with clients to develop individualized treatment plans that promote stability, resilience, and long-term well-being.

Dr. Alex Conroy

Psychologist

Virtual • Minnesota


I am a clinical psychologist and licensed alcohol and drug counselor. I specialize in treating social anxiety and trauma, especially in neurodivergent teens and adults. Loneliness and social exhaustion cause despair because we are all made for love and community. Feeling disconnected can be unbearable. Addictions of all kinds frequently develop as a way to cope. I can treat anyone with these problems, but I would be an especially good match for those who know or suspect that their struggles may be related to late-identified autism, ADHD, or dyslexia.
