My name is Surayyah James, and I’m a board-certified nurse practitioner in psychiatry. Every person’s story matters, and I’m here to listen, support, and guide you as you work toward greater understanding and peace of mind. My practice is rooted in compassion and respect, offering a thoughtful blend of medication management, therapy, and mindfulness—all tailored to what truly works for you
You’re never just a number in my care. As a psychiatric nurse practitioner, I offer personalized treatment—combining medication, therapy, mindfulness, and lifestyle coaching. I listen, work with you, and give you real tools for lasting change. If you want mental health support for the whole you, I’m here to help you move forward confidently.
Many clients say they feel a sense of relief and hope after just one session. My goal is to create a space where you feel safe and never rushed. I’m here to listen fully and support you at your own pace. Remember, you’re always encouraged to reach out for help whenever you need it. I’ll be here every step of the way.

I help clients facing depression or trauma from relationships or family. In our first sessions, we'll identify key issues and build a plan together. Most people notice relief within the first month, with steady progress after that.

During our initial session, Ill make time to listen to understand what brings you to therapy. I often use CBT in my work, and we will explore this approach together to see if it is a good fit for you. As we move forward we'll look at how your thoughts can shape your emotions on a daily basis. I will support you in learning more practical ways to challenge unwanted thoughts to help you to cope.
