As a Licensed Clinical Social Worker based in Texas, I am passionate about supporting women through life’s challenges, particularly those navigating substance use and co-occurring mental health disorders. My experience spans working with individuals in intensive outpatient settings, as well as providing individual therapy for clients who have completed such programs or have learned about my work through community referrals. I understand how important it is to tailor care to each person’s unique goals and circumstances, and I am committed to creating a welcoming, nonjudgmental space for healing and growth.

Everyone has a story, and I believe healing begins when someone finally has the space to tell it without fear of judgment.

I work with children, teens, adults, couples, and families facing anxiety, depression, trauma, grief, relationship struggles, and life's unexpected challenges. Whether you're feeling overwhelmed, stuck, or simply exhausted from carrying too much for too long, therapy can become a place where things begin to make sense again.

I spent more than 25 years walking alongside people through some of life's most difficult moments. Today, I combine that life experience with evidence-based therapy to help clients better understand themselves, strengthen their relationships, and move toward lasting change.

My goal isn't simply to help you feel better—it's to help you heal in ways that create meaningful and lasting transformation.

My name is Oluwatoyin Omodaratan, PMHNP-BC, and I go by Toyin. I am a board-certified Psychiatric-Mental Health Nurse Practitioner with over 4 years of experience as a provider and more than 19 years rooted in psychiatric nursing.

I provide compassionate, evidence-based mental health care to children, adolescents, adults, and older adults. My clinical experience spans a wide range of psychiatric conditions across the lifespan, including mood disorders, anxiety disorders, trauma-related conditions, psychotic disorders, and other mental health concerns.

I believe in treating the whole person, not just the diagnosis. My approach is collaborative, respectful, and individualized, ensuring that each client feels heard, supported, and actively involved in their treatment plan. My goal is to create a safe, non-judgmental space where healing, growth, and stability can occur.

Every person has a story. The culmination of experiences in one's life shapes how they view themselves, their relationships, and the world. I have a passion for helping clients celebrate their unique strengths and gifts they share with others. With experiences in both private practice and hospitals, I have noticed a particular need for clients to separate their view of themselves from their current difficulties and circumstances. In spite of where clients may find themselves at the moment, my belief is that they have overcome every difficulty, challenge, and trauma that they have faced up to the present moment. As such, they will withstand their current circumstances, and will again declare victory.

Life can feel overwhelming when stress, difficult experiences, relationship challenges, or emotional struggles begin affecting your ability to function the way you want to. Whether you're navigating anxiety, depression, trauma, grief, ADHD, family conflict, parenting concerns, or the impact of past experiences, you don't have to face it alone. I work with children, adolescents, adults, couples, and families who are looking for support, healing, and practical tools to create meaningful change. Many of my clients come to therapy feeling exhausted, disconnected, or unsure how to move forward after years of trying to manage everything on their own. My goal is to provide a supportive, affirming environment where you feel understood and empowered. Together, we'll identify what's contributing to your challenges, build on your strengths, and work toward healthier relationships, improved coping skills, and a more balanced life.

I believe healing begins with feeling heard, understood, and supported without judgment. As a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC), I have over a decade of experience working with children, adolescents, adults, and families across outpatient, community mental health, crisis intervention, emergency departments, and behavioral health settings.

Throughout my career, I have helped individuals navigate anxiety, depression, trauma, grief, life transitions, relationship challenges, ADHD, mood disorders, and crisis situations. My background also includes leadership roles within behavioral health, allowing me to advocate for clients while providing compassionate, evidence-based care.

My goal is to create a safe, supportive environment where clients feel empowered to build resilience, gain insight, and create meaningful, lasting change.
