I am a licensed master social worker (LMSW) with 10 years of experience supporting children, adolescents, adults, and families. I specialize in treating trauma, depression, anxiety, attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder, bipolar disorder, psychosis, grief and loss, substance use concerns, domestic violence, and issues related to abuse and neglect. I take a client-centered approach and am deeply committed to advocacy, social justice, and supporting individuals through life’s most challenging moments.

I earned my master’s degree in social work from Yeshiva University’s Wurzweiler School of Social Work. My background includes work in community-based settings and military environments, including service as an active-duty United States Navy hospital corpsman. My approach integrates evidence-based practices, including cognitive behavioral therapy.

I strive to create a safe, supportive space where you feel heard, respected, and empowered. Therapy is a collaborative process, and I work alongside you to build insight, develop coping skills, and break patterns that no longer serve you so you can move toward a more balanced and fulfilling life.

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.

Seeking support is a courageous first step, and you don't have to navigate life's challenges alone. We'll work together to develop a treatment plan that aligns with your goals and values. 

My approach includes psychoeducation and lifestyle interventions. My areas of clinical interest include anxiety disorders, depression, trauma and PTSD, ADHD, mood disorders, grief and loss, stress and burnout, and women's mental health.
