Afanwi Ntumngia, APRN

Mental Health Nurse Practitioner
2603 Augusta Dr, Houston, TX
I am a board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner (PMHNP) with experience providing compassionate, evidence-based psychiatric care to children, adolescents, and adults. My nursing background began in pediatric care, where I developed a strong appreciation for early intervention, family-centered treatment, and the lasting impact mental health has on overall well-being and development. This foundation continues to shape my holistic and patient-centered approach to care. I am fully licensed to assess, diagnose, and treat a wide range of psychiatric conditions. In addition to my PMHNP training, I hold certifications in Health Coaching, Lifestyle Medicine, and Healthcare Administration, allowing me to integrate both clinical and wellness-focused strategies into treatment. My clinical interests include medication management, improving medication adherence, and incorporating behavioral and lifestyle interventions into psychiatric treatment. I particularly enjoy working with patients experiencing anxiety, depression, ADHD, bipolar disorder, and schizophrenia. Having lived in several countries, I bring a culturally sensitive and globally informed perspective to my practice. I value building meaningful connections with individuals from diverse backgrounds and understand the importance of recognizing cultural influences on mental health. I am especially passionate about reducing stigma and improving access to compassionate care for underserved communities. My treatment philosophy is collaborative, supportive, and holistic. I believe patients should feel empowered and actively involved in their care. I combine medication management with psychoeducation, motivational support, and lifestyle-focused strategies to promote long-term mental wellness and improved quality of life. My goal is to create a safe, respectful, and inclusive environment where every patient feels heard, valued, and supported throughout their mental health journey.
