Hi, I’m Equilla Cherry, PMHNP—your partner in mental wellness. I work with clients ages 10 to 70, helping them navigate depression, anxiety, mood disorders, schizophrenia, and other mental health challenges with clarity and confidence.

What sets my practice apart is my holistic, person-centered style—I treat the whole person, not just the diagnosis. I value building genuine connections and making sure every client feels heard, understood, and supported.

I’m passionate about this work because I believe everyone deserves access to compassionate mental health care—and I’m committed to helping you rediscover stability, strength, and hope.

I am a Board-Certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner with over a decade of experience in healthcare. My passion for psychiatry grew from my own personal encounters with mental health challenges, which deepened my empathy and commitment to supporting others on their healing journey.

I have worked in diverse clinical settings including private practice, community mental health, and correctional care which has allowed me to develop a well-rounded and adaptable approach to treatment. I have extensive experience treating a wide range of conditions, including depression, anxiety, trauma-related disorders, ADHD, and mood disorders.

I primarily treat adults and strive to offer a safe, comfortable setting for individuals to feel empowered and facilitate personal growth.
