Getting to know Dr. Nnedi Nwosu

Dr. Nnedi Nwosu is a dedicated Psychiatric and Mental health as well as family nurse practitioner. She offers virtual care through Charis Mind & Body Wellness. Dr. Nwosu received her doctoral degree in nursing practice from UMass Global. She provides comprehensive psychiatric evaluations, medication management, and ongoing support to individuals navigating various mental health concerns. She prioritizes holistic nature, focusing on the mind and body, patient education and collaboration, and helping individuals actively participate in their care. She creates treatment plans tailored to each person's goals and lifestyle, focusing on balanced mental wellness and supporting long-term stability.

What should a new client know about working with you?

Dr. Nnedi Nwosu creates a safe, nonjudgmental space where we can talk openly about what you’re going through. I believe in treating the whole person—mind and body—so care is never “one-size-fits-all.” I work collaboratively with my patients, combining evidence-based medication management with supportive and integrative therapies like CBT, mindfulness, and lifestyle guidance. My goal is to walk alongside you at your pace, helping you regain balance, clarity, and peace while making sure treatment is practical, realistic, and tailored to your unique background and goals.

What is your typical process for working with clients?

In our first session, I take time to listen and understand your history, symptoms, and goals through a thorough diagnostic evaluation. Together, we create a personalized treatment plan that may include medication management, supportive talk therapy, or integrative psychotherapy approaches such as CBT tools, mindfulness, or journaling. Follow-up visits are collaborative check-ins where we review progress, adjust as needed, and build skills for long-term wellness. Throughout the process, I prioritize clear communication, patient education, and flexible care so you feel informed, supported, and empowered in your treatment journey.

Dr. Nwosu is thorough and attentive, a great listener and an insightful commentator in turn. I highly recommend her for psychiatry!
This doctor gave the prescription I was looking for which I do appreciate. She was, however, very condescending and spoke to me as if I knew nothing about therapy, mental health treatment, etc (I'm in graduate school to become a psychologist). I reaffirmed several times that I'm in therapy and that I'm just seeking medication from this appointment, but she continued to explain very elementary healing techniques to me. She didn't seem acquainted with psychodynamic approaches. Overall, if you are someone who has a deep self-knowledge about your mental health and want to feel affirmed in that, I would not recommend this doctor.

Dr. Nwosu is great! I've been seeing her via telehealth visits for the last five months or so, and she was immediately able to listen to my concerns and help me come up with a plan to work on my ADHD/anxiety issues. Not only was she able to identify medications that work for me, but she also recommends other non-medicinal exercises and strategies to help me better meet my goals in my mental health journey. If you want someone who will genuinely hear you out and keep you grounded, I highly recommend her!
I've been working with Dr.Nwosu for almost 2-3 months now and I have seen a drastic improvement in my mood and quality of life overall.

She has taken the time to foster such a safe space. I'm truly grateful for her.
