This Thanksgiving, we’re reflecting on the work that truly transforms lives. Restoring hope, reversing chronic disease, and helping patients reclaim their health with science, compassion, and intention. 🍂💛
Last week, Dr. Justin represented Avant Psychiatry at the American College of Lifestyle Medicine Learning Center’s Lifestyle Medicine 2025 Conference in Grapevine, Texas. This national event brought together leaders in preventive and restorative care, and we’re proud to have Dr. Justin learning alongside the best in the field.
Conference sessions focused on evidence-based lifestyle interventions that improve patient outcomes, strategies to strengthen resilience and reduce burnout and health disparities, and clinical tools that help prevent, treat, and even reverse chronic disease.
Dr. Justin brings this knowledge back to Avant every day, blending cutting-edge research with compassionate, whole-person care. His commitment to innovation and healing continues to elevate the care we provide and the lives we touch. 🌿✨
This is how we treat. This is how we reverse disease. This is how we restore hope.
Wishing you and your loved ones a peaceful, healthy, and meaningful Thanksgiving. 🧡

🇺🇸 Honoring Military Families This November 💙
November is Military Family Appreciation Month, and today we pause to honor the strength, resilience, and sacrifice of the incredible families who stand behind our service members.
At Avant Interventional Psychiatry, this month holds special meaning — several members of our own team proudly serve in the military. We are grateful for their dedication, their courage, and the unique perspective they bring to our community. 💛💚
Military life comes with challenges that often go unseen — long separations, frequent transitions, and the emotional load of supporting a loved one in service. These experiences can have a profound impact on mental health, and it’s important to remember: you don’t have to carry it alone.
To our military members, spouses, children, and loved ones: We see you. We appreciate you. We’re here for you. 🤍
If you or someone you love is navigating stress, anxiety, or emotional challenges, our team is ready to support you with compassionate and specialized mental health care — because caring for the mind is just as important as caring for the mission.

November is Military Family Appreciation Month — a time to honor the quiet strength of the families who stand behind our service members. 🇺🇸💙
Behind every deployment, every long night, and every homecoming is a mother, a spouse, a child, or a loved one holding everything together with love and resilience.
To the military moms who carry both pride and worry in their hearts… to the families who adapt, pray, wait, and support — your sacrifices matter. Your emotional well-being matters.
At Avant Interventional Psychiatry, we recognize the unique stress, anxiety, and invisible weight that military families often carry. You deserve space to breathe, to heal, and to be supported.
Your mental health is just as important as the roles you fill every day.
💚 We’re here for you, and we are accepting new patients.

Tomorrow, Avant Interventional Psychiatry will be closed in observance of Veterans Day — a day to pause, reflect, and honor the brave men and women who have served and sacrificed for our country. 💚
At Avant, we are especially mindful of the mental and emotional strength it takes to serve. Today and every day, we stand with our veterans, recognizing their courage, resilience, and the unseen battles many continue to face long after service.
We encourage everyone to take a moment to reach out, say thank you, and support the heroes in your life — whether through a conversation, a kind word, or simply remembering their sacrifices.
We’ll reopen the following business day and remain committed to providing compassionate, supportive mental health care for our community — including those who’ve served. 💚

Today is National Stress Awareness Day, and we want you to give yourself permission to pause, breathe deeply, and check in with how you’re really feeling. 🧘🏽♀️✨

✨ You deserve moments of calm. ✨ You deserve support. ✨ You deserve to feel like you again.
Your mental health is a priority — not a luxury. Let today be the reminder to put YOUR well-being first. 🌱

Avant Interventional Psychiatry was founded in 2017 by Dr. Okah “Justin” Anyokwu. Upon moving to the Atlanta area he continued his work with local inpatient hospitals as well as underserved populations in hospitals specializing in psychiatric consults for comorbid and Treatment-Resistant psychiatric disorders. After making the decision to call this community home, he decided that he wanted to take part in making the lives of the people in our area better with a deeper reach towards mental wellness. Throughout his years of work in mental health and particularly with complex and severe mental illness, Dr. Justin realized an interventional piece was needed to bridge the gap in psychiatric treatment. By intervening in the lives of patients before hospitalization and being able to assess the true complexity of their mental health needs we hope to replace years of suffering with more years of healthy living and peace of mind.
ABOUT THE OWNER
Dr. Okah “Justin” Anyokwu received his medical degree from the College of Health Sciences at Obafemi Awolowo University in Ile-Ife Nigeria. He then moved to the United Kingdom to attend the Royal College of Psychiatry to specialize in Psychiatry. Upon completion of his education in Europe, he moved to the United States and completed his residency at the University of Missouri in Columbia, Missouri. Dr. Justin is a board-certified psychiatrist licensed in eight states and is currently a member of the American Psychiatric Association. He specializes in comorbid and Treatment-Resistant psychiatric disorders. He founded Avant Behavioral Consultants in 2017 which now operates as Avant Interventional Psychiatry, an outpatient private practice specializing in: treatment resistant psychiatric services, tele-psychiatry, therapy/counseling sessions, substance abuse treatment [and/or suboxone therapy], and Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (TMS) therapy.
