Obianuju Okpala, APRN, RN

Adult Psychiatric & Mental Health Nurse Practitioner
CA
I am a psychiatric mental health nurse practitioner, licensed and nationally board certified to provide psychiatric care for patients with mental illness. I hold a Post-Master's Certificate in Psychiatric and Mental Health Nursing from Wilkes University. I am trained to care for patients with mental health issues across the lifespan. I have competence in prescribing and monitoring medications used in the treatment of mental health disorders such as depression and anxiety, bipolar disorder, psychosis, personality disorders, and disruptive behavior. My clients can expect a therapeutic environment that is warm, empathetic, and compassionate. They leave with greater insight into their experiences and become well informed on how to handle issues, which helps them feel less stressed, more confident, and more in control. I use a patient-centered care approach that recognizes my clients' needs and respects their right to make health decisions and choices.
