Convince Njiru

Psychiatric Mental Health NP

Virtual • Oregon


Hello, and welcome! My name is Convince Njiru and I’m a board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner (PMHNP). I’m passionate about providing compassionate, evidence-based mental health care that empowers individuals to achieve balance, healing, and personal growth.

I earned my Master of Science in Nursing from Purdue University , where I received specialized training in psychiatric assessment, diagnosis, and treatment across the lifespan. My clinical experience includes working with individuals facing depression, anxiety, ADHD, bipolar disorder, Schizophrenia, trauma-related disorders, and other mental health challenges.

In my practice, I take a holistic and collaborative approach — integrating medication management, psychotherapy techniques, and lifestyle interventions to create individualized care plans. I believe that mental health care should be accessible, judgment-free, and tailored to each person’s unique story.

Whether you’re seeking help for the first time or continuing your mental health journey, I strive to provide a safe, supportive space where you can feel heard and understood.

Are you facing a life transition, mental health challenge, or addiction struggle that feels overwhelming to navigate on your own?

You're not alone. As a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW/LICSW) and Certified Alcohol and Drug Counselor, I specialize in helping individuals find stability, clarity, and hope during some of life's most difficult moments. Whether you're coping with anxiety, depression, substance use, grief, major life changes, or the challenges of co-occurring mental health and addiction concerns, I provide a supportive space where healing and growth can begin.

For more than 12 years, I've worked across mental health, addiction treatment, crisis intervention, medical settings, and community-based care. I've supported individuals and families through recovery, psychiatric crises, cognitive decline, and significant life transitions. These experiences have taught me that resilience exists even in the hardest circumstances—and that meaningful change is possible.

My approach is compassionate, practical, and nonjudgmental. Very little surprises me, and nothing is too complex to discuss. Together, we'll build on your strengths, develop effective coping strategies, and create a path forward that feels achievable and authentic to you.

Find an expert who truly understands ADHD

Headway helps you stay on track with expert-guided support for ADHD — from finding the right therapist or psychiatrist, to understanding costs, to scheduling with ease.

Factors to Consider When Choosing an ADHD Therapist in Portland

Finding ADHD therapists in Portland starts with knowing what kind of support you want. ADHD therapy can focus on executive function skills, cognitive behavioral therapy for ADHD, emotional regulation, organization, time management, and support for related concerns like anxiety or depression. Some people look for a therapist for ADHD, while others may also want medication management from a psychiatrist. Adult ADHD and pediatric ADHD can also call for different experience, so it helps to look for a therapist whose listed specialties match your age group, goals, and needs.

Portland has many therapists across neighborhoods like Northwest Portland, Sellwood, Alberta, and the Pearl District, which can make it harder to narrow your options. Consider whether an in-person office fits your commute, transit route, or schedule, or whether virtual appointments give you more flexibility. It also helps to compare availability, therapeutic approach, and whether a free phone consultation is offered. Provider bios can show how a therapist works with ADHD, whether they also support co-occurring concerns, and what a first session may look like.

ADHD therapy in Portland can be a significant expense without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs and make ongoing care easier to plan for. Headway helps you find therapists who may accept insurance, are accepting new patients, and offer upfront cost estimates after you enter your insurance details. You can browse therapists, review bios, and book directly when you’re ready.

If you're already taking psychiatric medication and considering switching providers, talk to your current prescriber before changing or stopping any medication — most psychiatric medications shouldn't be stopped abruptly. Anyone experiencing thoughts of self-harm or in acute crisis should call 988 or go to the nearest emergency department rather than wait for an outpatient appointment.
