Don't be intimidated or judged by others anymore for what you are going through in your mind. This is why I specialized in Mental Health as a Board Certified Psychiatric Nurse Practitioner. My name is Paul Ackah, a Board Certified Psychiatric Nurse Practitioner with over 19 years of clinical nursing experience and 15 years in Psychiatric Nursing, caring for children, adults, and the elderly in hospitals. I hold a Master's in Nursing from Walden University and am now accepting clients for Tele-health appointments. I provide psychiatric evaluation and medication management and zealously treat clients with a wide range of mental health concerns, including but not limited to Schizophrenia, Anxiety, Depression, mood disorders, OCD, Bipolar, and PTSD. I thoroughly assess each patient's concerns, medical history, and traumatic experiences in search of potential triggers that might be contributing factors to the identified ailments. I look forward to meeting with you to discuss your problems and finding solutions to them.

More information on payments and coverage

Payment is due after each session and will be charged with your card on file for any portion of patient responsibility. Receipts will be provided at the time of the charge. This typically takes place 2-4 weeks after the session, once your insurance has had a chance to process the claim. We try our best to verify eligibility, but it is ultimately your responsibility to check coverage and out-of-pocket costs for services. For out-of-network visits, you will be billed at the provider’s self-pay rate, and we can provide an invoice for you to submit to your insurance for potential out-of-network reimbursement based on your plan’s benefits.
