I am Magdalen Mekoh, a Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner with six years of experience in various healthcare settings, including hospitals, skilled nursing facilities, and an inpatient addiction and detox facility.

I take pride in my compassionate and individualized approach to patient care. My experience encompasses a wide range of mental health disorders, including ADHD, anxiety, depression, substance use disorders, PTSD, trauma, bipolar disorder, and schizophrenia. I believe in the power of active listening and collaboration, working closely with each patient to understand their unique needs and develop effective treatment plans.
I utilize evidence-based treatment modalities such as medication management, supportive therapy, and cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT). Creating a safe and supportive environment is central to my practice, allowing patients to feel comfortable addressing their concerns and developing coping strategies. I am committed to personalizing care to alleviate symptoms and improve overall well-being.
I understand that mental health struggles can feel isolating, but I want you to know that you don’t have to face them alone. I am here to listen and support you on your journey to healing. If you’re ready to take the first step, I encourage you to reach out and book an appointment. Together, we can work towards finding the best path for your mental health.
