Getting to know Mavis Boama
I am a certified Psychiatric-Mental Health Nurse Practitioner (PMHNP-C). I completed my Bachelor of Nursing degree at Chamberlain University in Chicago, Illinois. I also earned a Master of Science in psychiatry at Walden University, which led to my certification as a psychiatric nurse practitioner. With extensive clinical experience in psychiatry, I specialize in treating individuals, couples, and families navigating challenges such as depression, ADHD, anxiety, PTSD, and substance use disorders. My background allows me to care for the whole person, addressing the complex connections between physical health, emotional well-being, and life balance.
My care philosophy is holistic, patient-centered, and rooted in integrative psychiatry. I believe mental health care must address the whole person—mind, body, and lifestyle—while remaining culturally sensitive and empathetic. I combine personalized, evidence-based psychopharmacology with integrative therapeutic modalities, including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Mindfulness-Based Cognitive Therapy (MBCT), and Motivational Interviewing. Together, we will discover the root causes of your challenges, establish realistic goals, and build long-term resilience.
In our first session, you can expect a warm, welcoming, and non-judgmental environment where your voice and personal experiences are prioritized. We will perform a comprehensive assessment of your clinical history, lifestyle, and goals. We will discuss your treatment options together and make sure you're comfortable with every part of your personalized care plan before we move forward.
*I do require past Medical Records prior to prescribing controlled substances*

No communication. Booked an appointment for 10am. Would be told I would be contacted to tell me how to access the call via web cam. Never was contacted. No email. No text. No call. Nothing. Just a missed appointment that I’m sure my insurance was ran for and I wasn’t even seen. Terrible communication. Won’t be booking again. It’s currently 7pm.
