I am currently a Licensed Professional Counselor treating both mental health and addiction. I have spent years working with many different community populations at local, state, and federal levels. I completed my Master's Degree in Clinical Mental Health Counseling in December 2020 and am currently working on my Doctorate. Since then I have expanded my client population to include mental health counseling along with my SUD clients. I also work with domestic violence victims and perpetrators. I completed EMDR training May of 2022 and can now offer this specified trauma counseling. I am a mother of three kids.
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.
My name is Carolyn Phillips, LCSW.
I have noticed relationships seem to be a very important value to people because we all need love, encouragement and understanding, as well as many other needs. If something gets misconstrued, then it can be a problem for a relationship. I would like to see you through the rough patches.
