Meet Our founder
Uche O’Keem’s journey into mental health care began with a simple, heartfelt desire: to help people. With over 25 years of experience as a nurse and more than 15 years as a Family Psychiatric and Mental Health Nurse Practitioner, she has dedicated her life to helping individuals grow, evolve, and unlock their full potential.
Her clinical expertise is global, having practiced across the United States and the United Kingdom in settings ranging from inpatient hospital units to private homes. This broad experience has given her a deep understanding of the challenges people face at every stage of life. While she serves all ages, Uche holds a special passion for guiding children and teenagers as they grow into healthy, purposeful adults. She founded Spisobod Connection as a sanctuary for this deep, transformative work—a place where high-level professional expertise meets compassionate, spiritual care.
