My name is Dr. Grace Chikezie. I am a licensed Psychiatric Mental Nurse Practitioner and a licensed Family Nurse Practitioner too, I have worked with persons from various populations with mental health issues. Personally, I believe firmly in holistic care and in holistic approach. My passion for mental health grew because I continued to encounter patients of all ages with different levels of mental distress, working as an FNP, and I really empathized with them and their families. I vehemently believe in the treatment of the whole person because as humans we need our full functionality to scale through the journey of life

My goal is to help advocate for my clients and offer them good and customized care because I believe that as a trained PMHNP, I can improve people's quality of life mentally and otherwise using a holistic approach. I can help with psychotherapy during visits, anxiety disorders, depression, attention deficit hyperactivity disorder, PTSD and more.....

Individuals with mental health disorders are faced daily with issues like stigma, prejudice, and discrimination. They struggle to be heard and understood. Please reach out to manage your condition and medication/treatment with empathy and compassion. I bring with me an exceptional set of skills that have advanced my desire to helping those most in need.

Treatment Approach

Types of Therapy

Christian Counseling
Cognitive Behavioral (CBT)

I often like to use Cognitive behavioral Therapy. In your first session, we will explore the root of the problem, and together work on appropriate options to deal with it. CBT helps to create awareness on your thought processes and how it affects your emotions and your experience. During treatment, I'll assist you learn how to resist those thoughts to change how you feel, so you can feel better.
