Let's Connect (516) 963-5798

Dear Client, I’m Blessing Okuji, PMHNP-BC. I help clients who are struggling with anxiety, depression, difficulty focusing, and staying organized. My goal is to help you feel more in control, sleep better, be present with your family, manage work without feeling overwhelmed, and find relief from mental noise. Ultimately, I want you to feel like yourself again..

I specialize in treating adults from 18 to 65+ with depression, anxiety, ADHD, and PTSD. Whether you need medication management or short-term therapy, I'm here to support you. My approach includes solution-focused and strength-based care, building on your inner skills rather than just addressing struggles. Healing comes through connection and understanding.

We will work together to create a plan that fits your life. If talk therapy alone hasn't worked for you, consider exploring other treatment options like medication. You don't have to figure this out alone. Call and make an appointment with me, let's talk. Thank you for allowing me to be part of your care.

Strength-Based

I use solution-focused and strength-based therapy. In our first session, we'll discuss your struggles and desired changes, then decide the best approach to help you progress. Solution-focused therapy emphasizes what's working in your life and how to enhance it with small steps. Strength-based therapy highlights your skills, values, and past successes to tackle problems and achieve daily goals.
