My Approach to Therapy

Adaku Anike is a Psychiatric-Mental Health Nurse Practitioner (PMHNP). She works with clients ages 14 and up who are dealing with a range of mental health challenges, including depression, anxiety, bipolar diagnosis, posttraumatic stress (PTSD), and schizophrenia. She uses evidence-based practices to create an individualized mental health care plan that meets each person’s needs and supports positive outcomes.

My Practice & Services

Adaku cares for her clients by actively listening to their needs, offering empathy, and creating an individualized care plan tailored to each person, because everyone’s needs are different. Her specialty is psychiatry, and she offers evidence-based mental health care. As a person who has experienced depression, Adaku understands how debilitating and isolating mental health challenges can be. The stigma associated with mental health conditions can cause someone to hesitate to ask for help. She wants you to know that you can reach out to her if you’re struggling with any concerns.
