Our CEO/Founder
Dr. Mukwel Aiyuk, DNP, FNP-BC, PMHNP-BC
Dr. Mukwel Aiyuk, DNP is the principal and CEO of Thrive Psychiatric Services. He has dual board certifications as a family nurse practitioner and a psychiatric mental health nurse practitioner. He has over 19 years of experience in psychiatry and has worked in academia, acute inpatient hospitals, and outpatient clinics and has treated many patients with various psychiatric conditions that include but not limited to generalized anxiety disorder, major depressive disorder, substance use disorder, panic disorder, ADHD, bipolar disorder, schizophrenia, insomnia, post-traumatic stress disorder, and psychosis.
He believes that everyone is different and so should be their treatment, so he performs comprehensive psychiatric evaluations and collaboratively with the patient develops a treatment plan that is “holistic” – often including medications, talk therapy, and specialized treatments that considers patient’s unique circumstances, family dynamics, work situation, psychosocial status, belief systems, and biology. He treats the whole person and not just the symptoms.
Dr. Aiyuk obtained his BSN degree from the University of Nevada, Reno, an MSN from George Washington University, Washington DC, and a DNP from Vanderbilt University, Nashville, TN.
