Therapist

Many people come to therapy feeling overwhelmed, stuck in patterns they do not fully understand, or exhausted from carrying challenges on their own for too long. Whether you are navigating trauma, depression, ADHD, relationship difficulties, family conflict, or a major life transition, therapy can provide a space to slow down, gain clarity, and reconnect with yourself.

My approach is collaborative, compassionate, and grounded in curiosity rather than judgment. Together, we will explore the experiences, emotions, and patterns that may be contributing to your current struggles while building practical tools to help you move forward. I believe meaningful change begins with greater self-awareness, and that healing happens when people feel seen, understood, and supported.

My goal is to create a space where you can show up authentically, make sense of your experiences, strengthen your coping skills, and develop a deeper sense of confidence in yourself and your relationships.

Psychiatric Mental Health NP

Are you keeping up with daily responsibilities but feeling anxious, overwhelmed, or emotionally drained? Perhaps you’re struggling with focus, sleep, or simply not feeling like yourself. You deserve a place where you can speak openly and receive care tailored to you.

I’m Kouhede Sossou, a board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner with over 10 years of experience in healthcare. I earned my Master of Science in Nursing from Purdue Global University. My nursing background includes behavioral health, correctional healthcare, trauma, and acute care, where I learned the importance of understanding the person beyond their symptoms.

I provide psychiatric evaluations and medication management for adults experiencing anxiety, depression, ADHD, trauma-related concerns, mood disorders, and sleep difficulties. Originally from Togo and fluent in English and French, I welcome clients from diverse backgrounds and respect the role of culture, family, and personal experiences in mental health.

Whether this is your first time seeking care or you’re looking for a fresh approach, I’m here to listen and help you explore your next steps.
