Hello! I am a doctorally prepared, Board Certified, Adult Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner and Assistant Professor of Nursing at Austin Peay State University. My experience includes working with individuals with severe and persistent mental health needs, addiction, women’s mental health, perinatal and postpartum mental health, and trauma. I am passionate about perinatal mental health care and partnering with you in your healing journey.

I grew up in Boise, Idaho and earned a Bachelor of Science in Psychology and a Master's Degree in Social Work from Boise State University, along with a Master's in Public Administration from the University of Alabama at Birmingham.

I have worked in inpatient, outpatient, and with in-home services and I love learning families’ and individuals’ strengths and helping meet others along their growth paths.

Hi, I’m Dr. Olamide Alabi, a board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner (PMHNP) with a passion for helping people navigate mental health challenges. I have over a decade of experience in mental health and substance abuse treatment, working in hospitals, community mental health centers, and recovery programs.

I earned my Doctor of Nursing Practice (DNP) from Samford University and hold multiple degrees in nursing, law, and agricultural economics. My diverse background, having studied in Nigeria, and the U.S., helps me provide culturally competent and inclusive care.

I specialize in treating anxiety, depression, PTSD, and substance use disorders. My goal is to create a safe, supportive space where clients feel heard and empowered on their journey to wellness.

Welcome — I’m glad you’re here!

I am a licensed professional counselor with over a decade of experience specializing in nature-informed therapy and helping individuals transform grief into growth. I believe every person is inherently precious and worthy of deep care. I would consider it a privilege to walk alongside you, offering support and perspective in the internal and external challenges that lead you to pursue therapy at this time.

Hi, I’m Liz, a Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner who believes mental health care should feel collaborative, personalized, and human. I work with adults experiencing anxiety, trauma, mood disorders, and neurodivergence and I strive to create a space where clients feel genuinely heard rather than judged or rushed.

My approach combines medication management with a holistic understanding of mental health, including nervous system regulation, lifestyle, relationships, physical health, and life experiences. Together, we focus on finding practical, sustainable strategies that help you feel more grounded, functional, and like yourself again.

I’m a licensed therapist who truly understands how life’s challenges can feel overwhelming. I know what it’s like to want a safe space where you can just breathe and be yourself—that’s exactly the kind of environment I strive to create. My own experiences have shown me how healing comes through connection, and I bring that warmth and empathy into every session.

I earned my Bachelor’s degree from the University of Memphis and my Master’s degree from the University of Tennessee at Martin. Over the years, I’ve worked in schools, community mental health centers, and private practice, which has shaped my trauma-informed, relational approach to therapy. I’m deeply committed to providing culturally sensitive, client-centered care that honors your unique story.

I work with children (ages 6 and up), teens, and adults, supporting people through anxiety, depression, life transitions, trauma, identity exploration, and relationship challenges. Whether you’re feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or just need a space to talk, I’m here to walk alongside you.
