Psychiatric Mental Health NP

Virtual • North Carolina


I, Ifeoma Okani, is a board-certified psychiatric mental health nurse practitioner (PMHNP). I specialize in working with individuals who feel overwhelmed by anxiety, depression, bipolar disorder, ADHD, trauma, PTSD, insomnia, adjustment disorders, OCD, schizophrenia, eating disorders, and addiction. Many of my clients are juggling multiple roles and seek a safe, culturally sensitive space where they feel truly heard and understood. Their goal isn’t just to feel better but to reconnect with themselves, heal from past pain, and thrive emotionally. They want personalized, compassionate care that supports meaningful growth, not just symptom relief. I help by providing a safe, culturally sensitive space where you’ll feel heard and supported. Using compassionate, evidence-based care, I offer psychiatric evaluations, medication management, and supportive therapy tailored to your needs. In our early sessions, we’ll build trust, explore your concerns, and create a personalized plan to support your healing. My practice is unique because I focus not only on symptom relief but on helping clients reconnect with themselves, heal deeply, and thrive long-term. I’m passionate about supporting others so they never feel alone in their struggles. I am committed to providing the support, insight, and clinical expertise you need to restore your peace and well-being.

Happy patient looking away

Find an expert who truly understands OCD

Headway helps you manage obsessive-compulsive disorder with expert-guided support — from finding the right therapist or psychiatrist, to understanding costs, to scheduling with ease.

Factors to Consider When Choosing an OCD Therapist in Raleigh, NC

Searching for OCD therapists in Raleigh starts with finding someone trained in obsessive-compulsive disorder care, not just general anxiety support. OCD can involve intrusive thoughts, compulsive behaviors, reassurance seeking, avoidance, and distress tied to specific fears or routines. Exposure and response prevention, often called ERP, is one therapy approach some clinicians use when supporting people living with OCD, and not all therapists are trained in it. As you compare therapists, look for bios that specifically mention ERP, OCD, intrusive thoughts, compulsions, anxiety, or related concerns.

Raleigh has a strong mental health care community, but the right fit still depends on practical details. Some people prefer an in-person office near downtown, North Hills, or other parts of the Triangle, while others choose virtual appointments for more schedule flexibility. When reviewing OCD therapists, look closely at whether they list ERP training, how they describe their work with OCD, and whether they offer appointment times that fit your calendar. A therapist who lists OCD as an area of familiarity may have different training than one who clearly describes ERP experience, so reading profiles before booking can help you make a more informed choice.

Therapy in Raleigh can be a significant investment without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to lower session costs and make ongoing care easier to plan for. Headway helps you find OCD therapists who are accepting new patients, review their specialties and availability, and see estimated out-of-pocket costs before you book. You can compare bios, check fit, and book directly when you’re ready.
