Anthonia Chukwudelunzu

Psychiatric Mental Health NP

Virtual • Ohio


My path to psychiatry began with a simple observation: mental health needs are everywhere, yet not enough people have access to care. After five years as a family nurse practitioner, I made the move to psychiatric care because I wanted to be part of the solution. I bring a holistic perspective to every session, drawing on years of primary care experience to understand how physical and mental health are connected in each person. I am board certified and see patients virtually in Ohio. If you are navigating anxiety, depression, or PTSD, I am here to work alongside you toward real, lasting change.

Hi, I'm Sara! I believe that connection is key to feeling less alone in this world. Getting curious about our past experiences and core values can help us to create a life that feels authentic and aligned with who we want to be. I enjoy supporting clients who are navigating life transitions, specifically the perinatal and postpartum periods. Additionally, I have specialized training in substance use disorders and have a heart for working with loved ones of those impacted by addiction to help restore balance, trust, and healing to the family system.

If you’ve been feeling anxious, down, overwhelmed, or unable to focus, I want to understand what that looks like in your everyday life. I’m curious by nature, I ask questions, and I take your experience seriously. My approach to psychiatry considers how your physical health, sleep, stress, and lifestyle may be contributing to how you feel.
