Our therapists offer counseling for anxiety & depression in Dumont, NJ

I am Noel Okon, MSN, PMHNP-BC. I began my journey as a psychiatric nurse in 1997, spent over two decades as a bedside nurse across diverse settings, and returned to school to earn my BSN in 2020 and my MSN in 2024, completing my PMHNP-BC certification that May. In February 2025, I transitioned to a psychiatric provider. I specialize in psychiatric evaluations, medication management, crisis intervention, and therapeutic support, with a particular focus on depression and anxiety. I am committed to creating a supportive, nonjudgmental environment where patients feel heard, respected, and empowered in their mental health journey. 

My approach is compassionate, collaborative, and patient-centered. I specialize in depression, anxiety, mood disorders, and stress-related conditions. My focus is on thoughtful medication management while helping clients understand their symptoms and options. Clients can expect to be active partners in their care, with plans adjusted as needed. 

Reaching out can feel overwhelming, especially when you have been carrying pain or anxiety for a long time. If you feel exhausted, stuck, or not like yourself, you are not alone. My goal is to meet you where you are with compassion and understanding. Together, we will build a plan that supports your goals. Seeking help is a sign of strength, not weakness.

My name is Judith Uwazuruonye, DNP, APN, PMHNP-BC. I bring 22 years of RN experience, including four years as a psychiatric charge nurse and three years as a PMHNP-BC. I specialize in anxiety, ADHD, depression, PTSD, bipolar disorder, schizophrenia, autism, eating disorders, conduct and oppositional defiant disorders, and adjustment disorders across the lifespan. I have a particular interest in adolescent care — teens navigating identity, stress, anger, and confusion need a provider who understands that stage of life. I provide culturally competent, patient-centered care across inpatient, outpatient, and correctional settings.
