Bipolar disorder therapists & psychiatrists in Stephens City, VA

Dr. Ifeoma (Ify) Elebo is a Board-Certified Family Nurse Practitioner and Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner. As a Board Certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner and Psychotherapist, I believe prioritizing mental health is key to happiness and stability in life. My approach is to empower the individual through a holistic problem-solving process. My focus areas include Anxiety, Depression, ADHD, PTSD, Bipolar Disorder, Substance abuse.

I help to create a safe, collaborative space where you will feel seen, not judged. Our relationship is one where you can let your guard down and show up as your full self. It is my goal to use a warm and compassionate relationship to walk alongside you, offering reflection, compassion, and challenge when needed to help you reach your goals.

Life can feel like juggling 20 things at once—especially when you’re trying to heal, grow, and keep everything together. You may look capable on the outside while privately feeling overwhelmed, emotionally drained, distracted, misunderstood, or stuck.

I’m a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with over a decade of experience supporting adults through ADHD, anxiety, mood concerns, burnout, relationship challenges, and major life transitions. I especially enjoy working with women, neurodivergent adults, POC , and anyone who has ever felt different, judged, or outside of what society considers “normal.”

My approach makes room for culture, identity, and each client’s lived experience.

My style is relaxed, warm, open-minded, and direct. You will not have to mask, perform, or edit yourself in sessions. I provide a judgment-free space where we can be honest, explore what is really happening, and develop realistic steps toward your goals.

Evening and late-evening appointments are available for clients who need therapy to fit around work, parenting, school, or everyday life.
