My ideal client is ready for things to feel lighter — ready to stop feeling on edge all the time, ready to sleep better, focus better, and feel more present in their relationships and daily life. They want care that feels human, and empowering. Dr. Odiri Akushe is a board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner with 15 years medical practice experience. She focuses on healing from the inside out. If you’re dealing with ADHD, anxiety, depression, PTSD, bipolar disorder, insomnia, or schizophrenia, she takes time to understand what you’re experiencing and partners with you to build a care plan that fits your real life.
Reaching out for support is a powerful step forward, not a weakness. Her approach is compassionate, collaborative, and rooted in evidence-based care. She combines medication management with CBT, tailoring each plan to meet her clients’ needs. ADHD screening available; new patients seen in a week. She sees patients ages 10-65.
Clients often describe Dr. Akushe as warm, approachable, and attentive. She strives to create a safe, judgment-free space where individuals feel truly heard, respected, and supported on their journey toward balance and a better quality of life.
