Our Compassionate Care Provider
Dr. Udo Chukwuocha holds a Doctor of Nursing Practice and is board certified as both a Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner (PMHNP-BC) and a Family Nurse Practitioner (FNP-BC). Patients describe her as patient, calm and ready to listen. She looks at the whole person, not a list of symptoms, and builds each treatment plan with you.
Our Psychiatric Care Process
1. Your Initial Consultation
Your first visit is a full psychiatric evaluation by secure video. We talk through your symptoms, history, current medications and goals, so we understand the whole picture before recommending anything.
2. Developing Your Care Plan
Together, you and Dr. Udo build a plan that fits your needs. It may include medication management, lifestyle changes or a referral for therapy, and you help decide each step.
3. Ongoing Treatment & Support
Follow-up video visits focus on how you are feeling and how your medication is working. When it helps, they include brief supportive therapy using Motivational Interviewing.
4. Measuring Progress & Adjusting Care
We track how you respond to treatment over time. If something is not working or side effects come up, your plan is adjusted with you.
