I'm Lina, and I'm passionate about empowering individuals on their journey to healing and growth.

I've practiced in community mental health, crisis response, primary care and outpatient settings-this variety and extent of experience contributes to how I show up for you in every session.

Hello, and welcome! My name is Convince Njiru and I’m a board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner (PMHNP). I’m passionate about providing compassionate, evidence-based mental health care that empowers individuals to achieve balance, healing, and personal growth.

I earned my Master of Science in Nursing from Purdue University , where I received specialized training in psychiatric assessment, diagnosis, and treatment across the lifespan. My clinical experience includes working with individuals facing depression, anxiety, ADHD, bipolar disorder, Schizophrenia, trauma-related disorders, and other mental health challenges.

In my practice, I take a holistic and collaborative approach — integrating medication management, psychotherapy techniques, and lifestyle interventions to create individualized care plans. I believe that mental health care should be accessible, judgment-free, and tailored to each person’s unique story.

Whether you’re seeking help for the first time or continuing your mental health journey, I strive to provide a safe, supportive space where you can feel heard and understood.

I am a doctorally educated, board certified psychiatric nurse practitioner. I have additional training and experience in perinatal mental health and addiction medicine. I have worked in the psychiatric field for eight years and have been practicing as a nurse practitioner for three.

I am a board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner (PMHNP-BC) with over a decade of experience in mental health care, supporting individuals across inpatient and outpatient settings. Through my work, I have cared for clients with a wide range of needs, including chronic and severe mental health conditions, and I understand how overwhelming it can feel to navigate symptoms while trying to maintain daily life.

My care philosophy is centered on partnership. Treatment is not about taking over your care, but about working with you to explore your symptoms, goals, and values. Together, we develop a treatment plan that feels respectful, personalized, and empowering. If you have concerns or hesitations about medication, we will discuss all available options openly and thoughtfully, moving at a pace that feels right for you.

I work with individuals experiencing depression, anxiety, trauma, ADHD, bipolar disorder, schizophrenia, OCD, and other mood and thought-related conditions. During the initial session, we focus on understanding your concerns, reviewing your history, and identifying practical steps toward improvement. Care may include psychiatric evaluation, medication management when appropriate, brief psychotherapy, education, and ongoing support.

I believe mental health care should feel supportive, clear, and collaborative—not rushed or overwhelming.

You do not have to face these challenges alone. My role is to help you reduce symptoms, strengthen coping skills, and regain balance so you can function at your best and move forward with confidence and stability.
