Chunichi David

Chunichi David, MSN, APRN, PMHNP-BC, ACM-RN, is the founder of Rooted in Wellness Mental Health, a practice born from a dedicated mission to provide online psychiatric care that feels deeply personal, intentional, and human. With over 15 years of diverse nursing experience—spanning hospice, cardiac care, pediatrics, and healthcare leadership—Chunichi brings an exceptional blend of clinical expertise and a whole-person perspective to her clients. She specifically designed her virtual practice to support high-functioning adolescents and adults across North Carolina who may appear "fine" on the outside, but are quietly navigating the heavy burdens of modern stress, grief, and overwhelming life transitions.

Moving away from rushed appointments and one-size-fits-all treatment plans, Chunichi utilizes a unique, integrative model called The Rooted Framework. This comprehensive approach looks past surface-level symptoms to explore the intricate relationship between emotional health, …biology, lifestyle, and past experiences. Her practice stands out in the digital healthcare space by blending traditional psychiatric evaluations with holistic support strategies to help individuals safely shift out of survival mode.

• Specialized Focus Areas: Expert virtual care targeting ADHD, anxiety, depression, trauma, professional burnout, and women’s mental health.
• The Rooted Framework: A multi-dimensional approach incorporating thoughtful medication management, root-cause exploration, and nervous system regulation.
• Collaborative Care: Unhurried, tailored telepsychiatry designed for sustainable, long-term healing and restored vitality.

Ultimately, Chunichi’s care philosophy centers on compassion, curiosity, and authentic collaboration. By slowing down to understand the full picture of each individual's life, she helps clients explore generational patterns, optimize daily rituals like sleep and movement, and manage medications with caution and collaborative intent. For North Carolina residents seeking a psychiatric partner who values identity, meaning, and resilience just as much as clinical safety, Chunichi David offers a transformative, human-centered space where healing is truly rooted, not rushed.
