Life can be overwhelming, and sometimes the challenges we face—whether it’s the stress of being a new parent, navigating a difficult relationship, managing trauma, or dealing with anxiety and depression—can feel insurmountable.

Hi, my name is Austin and welcome to my private practice. As a man who has been deeply affected and healed by counseling, I get the need and role of counseling firsthand. This is why I love counseling: I believe humans were created to share their stories and to work through difficulties together. Counseling is my life’s passion. I am truly honored and delighted to now walk alongside others in dark places toward durable hope and lasting change.

I am personally acquainted with the pain of grief. After the loss of my mother to suicide, I began a counseling journey that revealed many unexplored areas in my life that needed compassion and care. These experiences have brought me face to face with life’s difficulties.

I received my Bachelor’s Degree from the United States Air Force Academy (Colorado Springs, CO) in Foreign Area Studies (Russia and Eastern Europe). After graduation, I worked as a military aviator and US Air Force Officer in domestic and international locations. I returned to graduate school to pursue a Master’s of Arts in Counseling and a Master’s of Divinity at Covenant Theological Seminary. Over the years, as a counselor, I have worked in a community-based counseling center, as a staff counselor for a church counseling center, and I am now in independent practice, working with men, veterans, couples, and families navigating trauma and PTSD, and the many ups and downs of life.

I have traveled throughout the world during my Air Force career. Seeing the many ways humans experience the world, in all its pain and joy, has only increased my passion to care for others. From working with teenagers and their struggles to individuals seeking hope to the married couple with decades of experience to everyone in between. I love working with people who are struggling and want change.

Are anxiety, depression, attention difficulties or changes in mood making everyday life harder?

I'm Blessing Iwuozo, a board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner at NuMedical & Psychiatry Clinic. I provide initial psychiatric assessments and medication management, with a compassionate approach that makes room for your questions, experiences and goals.

I work with patients experiencing anxiety, depression, ADHD, bipolar disorder, PTSD and sleep concerns. Whether you are seeking care for the first time or looking to review your current treatment, we will explore your symptoms, relevant history and how you are functioning at home, school or work.

My goal is to help you understand your treatment options and participate in decisions about your care. Together, we will develop a personalized plan and review your progress over time.

When life feels overwhelming, it's easy to lose sight of yourself while trying to keep everything else together. Anxiety, depression, family conflict, grief, or difficult life experiences can leave you feeling emotionally exhausted, disconnected, or unsure how to move forward. You don't have to keep carrying those burdens alone. I work alongside individuals experiencing anxiety, family issues, stress management, grief and loss, and relationship issues so they can build healthier relationships, regain emotional balance, and reconnect with the life they want to live. Working with adolescents, adults, and seniors, I strive to create a compassionate, supportive environment where you feel genuinely heard, respected, and empowered to create meaningful, lasting change.
