“Very precise and thorough demeanor. She made sure that I was fully prepared for the appointment prior to the day of appointment. Contacted me directly to confirm my availability and my understanding of our meeting. My internet connection was poor during the meeting so instead of waiting for it to recover she called me directly to make sure we did not waste any time and we could have a successful conversation. She is an excellent listener and makes me feel comfortable talking and feeling safe in a sort of vulnerable state of mind. Was able to speak open and honestly the first time meeting her. Would recommend her to everyone in need of this type of care.”

She was amazing, genuinely concerned about my problems. I loved everything about her. I was a little late with my appointment and she was able to see me still. The motivational speech at the end was amazing ! I feel like I’m headed in the right path!

Fantastic experience overall. Was able to get an evaluation underway for a diagnosis that I was pretty sure I had. Chioma was incredibly kind, funny and very good at listening to what I had to say and what I wanted to pursue in terms of care. Made me feel very comfortable as a first time patient as I was incredibly nervous the whole time. Highly recommend if you're looking to establish care with a thoughtful clinician.
