I'm a dual-certified Family Nurse Practitioner (FNP) and Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner (PMHNP) with experience in both medical and mental health care, including HIV care. I take a holistic, patient-centered approach and work with adults experiencing anxiety, depression, mood disorders, and stress. I also support individuals navigating life transitions, chronic conditions, and identity-related challenges, and strive to create an inclusive, supportive environment for all. 

I focus on creating a "brave space" where you feel safe, respected, and empowered to share openly. Together, we'll identify your goals and begin developing a personalized plan that supports your mental and emotional well-being. My goal is that you leave your session feeling heard, supported, and confident in the direction we're taking together. 

You don't have to have everything figured out before getting support. My goal is to meet you where you are, help you feel heard, and work with you to create a plan that feels right for you. When you're ready, I'd be honored to work with you. 

My name is Tamekia Ruff, and I am a board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner (PMHNP-BC) dedicated to evidence-based mental health care.

I am Atrevia Brown, a board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner (PMHNP-BC) dedicated to providing evidence-based, compassionate psychiatric care. I typically partner with individuals navigating the heavy burdens of anxiety, depression, trauma, bipolar disorder, and schizophrenia, as well as insomnia—and those seeking clarity and stability while managing mood disorders. My clients are looking for a safe, non-judgmental space where they can build emotional resilience, balance their symptoms through thoughtful medication management, and move from getting by to truly thriving in their personal and professional lives.

My approach is rooted in integrative psychiatry—combining precise medication management with a deep focus on the mind-body connection. Rather than just treating symptoms, I look at the whole person: how lifestyle, environment, and biology intersect. When you work with me, you can expect a collaborative, transparent partnership where your voice leads.

Taking the first step toward mental wellness is an act of profound courage, and you don't have to carry that weight alone. No matter how overwhelming things feel right now, there is a path forward filled with hope and healing. I invite you to reach out and schedule a consultation so we can begin reclaiming your peace and building the life you envision.
