I am a Board-Certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner, specializing in the treatment of depression, anxiety, and bipolar disorder. My goal is to work with you to create a treatment plan that’s as unique as you are— through medication, therapy, or a combination of both. Together, we’ll work toward meaningful progress in your mental health journey—whether it’s ensuring your medications are effective, managing side effects, or simply helping you feel better overall. In addition to treating anxiety, depression, and bipolar disorder, I also work with a broad range of mental health concerns, including OCD, PTSD, substance use disorders, insomnia, ADHD, eating disorders, and women’s health, especially during pregnancy and postpartum. While medication often plays a significant role in treatment, I embrace a holistic approach when appropriate, incorporating natural methods, vitamin supplementation, and genetic testing to personalize your care and find the best solutions for you. From adjusting medications to providing a space where you feel heard and supported, my ultimate goal is to help you thrive in a way that feels authentic and true to you. Treatment philosophy: I take a personalized approach to medication management, combining evidence-based practices with what matters most to you. I believe in truly understanding you—your concerns, values, and goals—and using that insight as the foundation for your treatment. This isn’t a one-size-fits-all approach; together, we’ll design a plan that aligns with your lifestyle, whether that’s adjusting medications, managing side effects, or integrating therapy to support your growth. I recognize that mental health can be complex, which is why your voice will always be at the center of our work. We’ll check in regularly, adjust your plan as life evolves, and ensure that your treatment continues to meet your needs.

Hello! I’m a Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner with a passion for helping people achieve better mental health. With licenses in both Florida and New York, I am fully equipped to provide top-notch care to my patients. I earned my Master of Science in Psychiatric Mental Health Nursing from St. Thomas University in Florida and hold a board certification from American Nurses Credentialing Center. Currently, I work at Greenway Wellness, where I diagnose and treat mental health and emotional disorders. I offer both individual and group therapy sessions, and I’m experienced in prescribing and managing medications when needed. My approach is all about collaboration. I work closely with other healthcare professionals to ensure that each patient gets personalized and continuous care. I also take the time to educate patients and their families about mental health, aiming to make everyone feel involved and informed. I’m bilingual in Edo (Nigeria) and English. Treatment philosophy: My experience in diverse healthcare settings has honed my ability to deliver clinical excellence. I treat children and adults from different racial and ethnic backgrounds, aiming to combat cultural stigma and increase mental health awareness. Each individual has a unique past, present, and future. I do not believe in prescribing or treating in a "one size fits all" fashion. I value input and feedback from my patients. I am open-minded, holistic, and solution oriented. My hope is that patients leave their appointment feeling like their concerns have been heard and fully addressed, they were respected and not judged, they have a clear understanding of their treatment plan and have a more hopeful outlook for their future.

Hi, I’m Leigh (pronounced Lee). I’m a clinical social worker based in Honolulu, HI and licensed in all 50 states. I primarily use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy in my practice. CBT helps clients recognize that it’s not necessarily the things that happen to us that cause us to struggle, but how we think about these things. When we learn that our first reactions to difficult subjects may be limiting, we can work to change and grow our perspectives. Subsequently, this allows us to feel differently and cope in more helpful ways. As a therapist who loves to travel, I’ve lived in many places in the US (including the Southeast, DMV, Midwest, PNW, and now Hawaii) and have traveled extensively outside the US. I strive to understand cultures I’m not familiar with and have been honored to learn and hold space for clients from many different walks of life. I enjoy working with clients to meet their goals. I view therapy as an active process, where my clients learn skills and tools that allow them to achieve their goals and flourish in their lives. My goal is for you to learn how to be your own therapist and successfully graduate from therapy with this knowledge and practice.

As a licensed therapist, I provide a safe and confidential environment where you can explore your feelings and work through your challenges. I specialize in supporting individuals navigating disruptive life events. I use evidence-based therapies, such as solution-focused therapy, mindfulness techniques, and trauma-focused therapy, to help you overcome obstacles and achieve your goals.
