Sospeter Otieno

Sospeter “Peter” Otieno is a testament to the power of determination, resilience, and a passion for healing. A veteran of the US Army during the tumultuous Iraq-Afghanistan war era, he did not just stop at serving his country on the battlefield. Instead, he chose to dive deep into the psyche, where many battles are often silently waged. As a Psychiatric & Mental Health Practitioner (PMHNP), Peter is not just a prescriber or a passive listener. He embodies the true essence of holistic care. His vast experience is evident not just in his clinical decisions but also in his unwavering dedication to each individual that seeks his help. He doesn’t just view patients as clinical cases, but as holistic individuals, deserving of care that spans mind, body, and spirit. His method is unique, rooting down to the very cause of psychiatric and psychodynamic presentations. While medications play a part, Peter also recognizes the immense power of therapeutic approaches like Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and life coaching. His approach transcends the traditional confines of psychiatric care. Peter has a gift: he not only listens but truly hears. Every care plan he crafts is a collaborative effort, where the patient is a significant stakeholder. He is a recipient of The US National Defense Award and the Daisy Award for Excellence and has an unwavering commitment to improving the lives of his patients. In his leisure time, Peter enjoys reading, writing, and speaking on motivation, and spending quality time with his wife and two daughters.
