About
I take a thoughtful, individualized approach to care, focusing less on labels and more on helping my patients improve their symptoms and overall quality of life.
I am a psychiatric provider with a background in inpatient and community mental health care. I earned my BSN from Central Connecticut State University and my master's degree from the University of Saint Joseph. Since 2020, I have worked with individuals across the lifespan, including those with dual diagnoses. I support clients seeking relief from symptoms and meaningful improvement in their overall quality of life.
I take a client-centered and individualized approach, understanding that each person's needs are unique. I prioritize listening, collaboration, and thoughtful treatment planning, working with clients to find practical, realistic strategies that support long-term symptom improvement and overall well-being.
I strive to create a supportive, trusting environment where you feel heard and understood. My goal is to help you build a lasting foundation for your mental health. I look forward to supporting you on your journey.

As a queer-identified man of color, I understand the unique challenges of identity exploration and intersectionality. I care for my clients with empathy, cultural awareness, and a collaborative approach, creating a space where you feel heard, respected, and empowered to navigate your changes and grow.
My name is Jideofor Azie. I am a compassionate mental health professional dedicated to supporting individuals through life's challenges with empathy, cultural humility, and evidence-based care. I have clinical experience working with diverse populations across a range of settings and draw from cognitive-behavioral therapy, person-centered therapy, and strengths-based practices to tailor care to each individual's unique needs. I typically work with clients navigating anxiety, depression, stress, mood disorders, bipolar disorder, substance use challenges, schizophrenia, ADHD, life transitions, PTSD, and relationship challenges.
As a psychiatric nurse practitioner, I take a holistic, patient-centered approach to assessment, medication management, and therapy. I consider biological, psychological, and social factors to tailor care to each person. Clients can expect a collaborative, respectful approach combining medication, education, therapy, and coping strategies for well-being.
I understand that reaching out can feel like a big and sometimes uncertain step, but you don't have to navigate it alone. My goal is to create a space where you feel heard, respected, and supported as you move toward greater balance and well-being. If you're ready to begin, I invite you to schedule an appointment—I would be honored to work alongside you.

With experience caring for adolescents and adults across diverse backgrounds, I believe that healing begins with a strong therapeutic relationship built on trust, compassion, and collaboration, allowing each client to achieve meaningful and lasting change.
Hello, I'm Christian Nwofor, PMHNP-BC, licensed in Texas. I provide psychiatric evaluation, medication management, and supportive therapy to adolescents and adults through telehealth and in-person settings. I work with individuals facing anxiety, depression, ADHD, bipolar disorder, PTSD, OCD, schizophrenia, and other mood and thought disorders. Many clients come to treatment overwhelmed by stress, trauma, or life transitions—others seek greater stability, improved focus, or support in achieving their goals. My goal is to create a safe, collaborative, nonjudgmental environment where clients feel heard, understood, and empowered.
My approach is collaborative, compassionate, and evidence-based. I combine medication management with supportive therapy and psychoeducation to help clients understand their symptoms. I incorporate CBT techniques to help clients identify unhelpful thought patterns and build resilience. My goal is to empower clients with practical tools for lasting growth.
Taking the first step toward treatment can feel overwhelming, but you don't have to face it alone. Whether you're struggling with anxiety, depression, trauma, or simply feeling stuck, I'm committed to a safe, supportive space where you feel heard. I believe healing and growth are possible for everyone, wherever you are. I welcome the chance to support you.

As a counselor who has struggled with ADHD and social anxiety, I understand the impact that mental health can have on daily life.
Before earning my master’s degree in counseling education, I worked with autistic children in a clinical setting and teenagers in an inpatient setting. I primarily work with children and adolescents experiencing anger, anxiety, and depression, particularly those with ADHD or autism. I also have experience working with adults and families.
I believe in building a strong therapeutic relationship where clients feel comfortable enough for me to be honest, direct, and straightforward when needed. I draw from a variety of therapeutic approaches, including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Solution-Focused Therapy, to meet each client where they are and tailor treatment to their individual needs.
I don’t just believe that people have the power to change—I know they do. I’ve seen it happen. When we work together toward a goal that is meaningful to you, I believe you can make lasting, meaningful change.

I use coping skills such as deep breathing and exercise (especially walking) for recurrent anxious feelings. I try to inhale for about 5 seconds and exhale for 7 seconds- doing this technique helps my body shift toward a calmer state. I try to exercise 3 times a week for 30 minutes- during exercise, I talk positively to myself (e.g. I can do it. I'm strong). Using motivation helps me achieve my goals and reduces my anxious feelings.
My name is Fadeke Oladeji, and I am a Psychiatric-Mental Health Nurse Practitioner (PMHNP). I earned my Master of Science in Psychiatric-Mental Health Nursing from Walden University, and I am board certified and licensed to provide mental health care across the lifespan. I have experience caring for populations with a wide range of mental health conditions in outpatient clinics, community mental health, substance use clinics, primary care, and telehealth settings. Prior to obtaining my nurse practitioner license, I worked as a registered nurse in the emergency room, primary care, and mental health outpatient/inpatient settings.
As a PMHNP, I provide psychiatric evaluations, diagnoses (depression, anxiety, obsessive-compulsive disorder, bipolar disorder, insomnia, ADHD), medication management, patient education, and supportive care with evidence-based treatment.
I have a strong belief in treating individuals by considering biological, psychological, and social factors, partnering with patients on treatment plans that align with their goals. I'm committed to a safe, respectful, nonjudgmental environment where patients feel heard and supported. I look forward to collaborating with patients to achieve great outcomes.

Denise Ludwig-Coe is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) with 17 years of experience in the mental health field. Denise is also a Clinical Nurse Specialist for 40+ years and is highly motivated to play a part in helping others to decrease the pain that often accompanies many life challenges. Denise works well with all people because of her deep respect for the diversity, yet sameness, among all people; especially when at times there may be overwhelming feelings in trying to adapt to illness, loss/grief, transitioning to older age, depression, anxiety, anger, stress, alcoholism/addiction, pain, and a sense of helplessness, and not knowing where to turn. Her passion is to offer a sense of comfort and hope to those who reach out for help. Because of Denise’s dual career choice, she has also been active in helping those in the medical field, including nurses with mental health and substance use issues and who may be involved in an alternative to discipline program in Florida. Her approach is person-centered and eclectic. She draws from the field of positive psychology and coaching, and uses mindfulness, motivational interviewing, cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT), trauma-focused therapy, as well as 12-Step Facilitation therapy, and stress management practices.
Denise completed both her Bachelor of Science in Nursing (BSN) and her Master of Science in Nursing (MSN) with a clinical specialty in Psychiatric/Mental Health Nursing at Syracuse University. She worked many years in direct clinical work with mental health clients in hospitals as well as in the community. Denise also worked in Public Health dealing with mental health and family issues among Spanish-speaking families living in Syracuse. She wasprivileged to teach and clinically supervise nursing students at the associate and bachelor's degree levels. Recognizing many of the stressors inherent in the health professions and wanting to play a part in strengthening caregiver resiliency and decreasing compassion fatigue, Denise returned to school and completed her Master of Science (MS) in Counseling at Nova Southeastern University, specializing in Substance Abuse Counseling and Education. Later, becoming more aware of how trauma and adverse childhood experiences impact the extended physical and mental health of people, she returned to school at Capella University to seek a PhD with a focus on the impact of trauma and later addictions in women. Due to her needing to become the primary caregiver to her dying parents, Denise did not complete the dissertation and instead received a master’s degree in Multidisciplinary Human Services. She has been a Certified Addictions Professional (CAP) in Florida. She also served as a nurse in the US Army reserves and worked in a combat support field hospital. Because of her diverse experiences in mental health, Denise has a broad base of knowledge and expertise. She is currently a Clinical Supervisor for Mental Health Counselor interns.
Part of being human means we all go through difficult times, when we don't know what to do and we feel unable to think straight. We may make decisions that make our situations even more complicated. We may feel shame or fear of loss (job, relationship, esteem of others) if we were to say out loud our thoughts and feelings. Maybe we are grieving and feel our pain will never end, BUT talking to a mental health professional can help. Talking to someone who listens with compassion, never judging or telling you what to do, but listens, and by being fully present, helps you to feel less alone, and more able to regain the direction for your life. If you are ready to reach out, Denise is ready to join you in your journey. Schedule an appointment with her today.

As someone who grew up in the field of mental health, I have come to appreciate the therapeutic value of allowing others to express themselves without reservation as well as affording them the respect and dignity they duly deserve.
My name is Elliott Brown, and I am a licensed professional counselor with over 25 years of experience in the field. When explaining the process of therapy to clients, I often use the “puzzle analogy”: a) you dump the pieces out on the table, b) I help you look for the edges and other patterns, c) you develop a clearer picture about how the rest of the puzzle needs to be solved, and d) you can frame your puzzle for easier reference in the future.
My approach aims to provide you with a sense of relief in expressing often unpleasant thoughts and feelings, while also helping you recognize the themes embedded within these expressions. In doing so, you may develop a greater awareness of the world around you and, as a consequence, become more resilient in the face of adversity.
Please let me know how I can be of help to you. Life's problems aren't something we have to tackle alone. Therapy doesn't have to look a certain way; sessions can be a time to unwind and talk about whatever you see fit. Above all, I hope that you will leave therapy a more insightful and happier person.

As one who has experienced my own traumas, losses and other "bumps in the road" life throws at us, I can identify with others in distress and try to align with them in finding their personal path to healing and empowerment.
My name is Jeff Miller, and I have been in the mental health field for over 30 years. I hold a Bachelor of Arts in Psychology and a Master's degree in Social Work. My experience is varied—beginning in Cuyahoga County investigating allegations of abuse and neglect with extensive Juvenile Court involvement, then expanding to children and teens in foster care, residential treatment, and adoption settings. I have also worked with adults managing chronic or acute mental health conditions and dual diagnoses. I am open to working with most concerns, though depression and anxiety—often rooted in trauma and loss—are what I most typically address.
Building a therapeutic relationship and aligning with clients to find their “path” to healing is at the heart of my work. I help normalize certain feelings, and approach each person without judgment. I am honest and respectful of what a client can manage at any point in the process. Trust is developed and earned over time, and I fully understand that.
I look forward to meeting you and will always start from where you are. Our journey together will hopefully bring new understandings and positive life changes.
