Modern life makes it hard to keep appointments. Between commutes, demanding jobs, and family responsibilities, many patients struggle to attend traditional sessions. At Cura Mind and Wellness, we bring therapy directly to you with secure, HIPAA compliant telehealth psychotherapy in Texas, Massachusetts, California, and Oregon.
Sessions are guided by Vivian Emuobe, MSN, BSN, APRN, PMHNP-BC, a board certified psychiatric mental health nurse practitioner. With experience in inpatient and outpatient psychiatry, leadership in women’s programs, and advanced training in psychopharmacology and therapy integration, she provides evidence based care tailored to each patient.
