Henrietta Okpala

Hi there, I'm Henrietta!

I'm here to give you mental health care that feels made just for you. I work with people facing mood disorders, depression, anxiety, schizophrenia, OCD, PTSD, ADHD, schizoaffective disorder, bipolar disorder, autism spectrum, intellectual disabilities, and gender identity concerns. I support young adults through geriatric populations.

My focus

I work with patients from different backgrounds and different behavioral health issues, prioritizing the patient as the center of the treatment plan, with a focus on safety and resolution of presenting symptoms.

My approach

I create a welcoming environment where trust can thrive and your concerns are carefully listened to. Together, we formulate clear treatment plans that prioritize your safety and help resolve the symptoms you're experiencing.

My communication style

I listen carefully, empathize, and create a patient-centered environment without passing judgment. I work within the time we have to make sure you feel heard and supported.

My journey to mental healthcare

I've been passionate about psychiatry throughout my career, always seeking the latest evidence-based practices to help my patients. I've worked in hospitals, clinics, and community settings, helping everyone from kids to grandparents. No matter what you're dealing with, I've got the tools and know-how to help.

My goals for you

We'll work together to set realistic, measurable goals—both short-term and long-term. I'm here to back you up with top-notch care and support as we walk the road to wellness together.

Our first session

I believe in looking at the big picture—your mind and body go hand-in-hand. From our first meeting, you're the center of the team. You'll get a care plan that's as unique as you are, mixing different approaches to get you feeling your best.
