Hi There! Donald Stiles is my name, but my friends call me Donnie. I'm a former active duty Marine turned Licensed Clinical Social Worker looking to continue my life of service to others that I once held while serving our country. Now, I'm serving on a much smaller scale, but no less important. Every single person that I serve now as a counselor is just as important as when I was serving the whole, and I will do my best to show you that I sincerely mean that.

Hi, I’m Mariam Opafunso, a board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner. I earned my Master of Science in Nursing from Ohio University and have experience working in both inpatient and outpatient behavioral health settings. I specialize in treating anxiety, depression, ADHD, bipolar disorder, and other mood-related concerns, as well as eating-related conditions in adolescents and adults.

Outside of my professional role, I value balance and growth, and I show up fully for the people I serve. I understand that seeking help can feel overwhelming, and I create a space where you feel comfortable, respected, and truly heard.

Are you feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or exhausted by trying to manage your mental health on your own? Do you feel discouraged by the trial-and-error cycle of medications, uncertain whether anything will truly help, or unsure how to quiet the anxiety or heaviness that follows you through daily life?

You deserve care that feels clear, intentional, and supportive—care that respects who you are and where you come from. This is a space where your voice, culture, and lived experiences matter. Services are offered with cultural sensitivity, and support is available in Spanish for those who feel more comfortable expressing themselves in their native language.

Your needs come first—whether that means thoughtful medication management to reduce symptoms, supportive therapy to help you feel understood, or a combination of both. Together, we focus on stabilizing mood, easing anxiety and depression, and helping you regain a sense of direction and control. This is a space where your concerns are taken seriously, your experiences are validated, and your treatment is tailored to help you build clarity, resilience, and lasting well-being—step by step, at your pace.

As a Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner (PMHNP‐BC) with Radiance Psychiatry and Wellness, I take a whole‐person approach to mental health care. I recognize that emotional well‐being is shaped by many factors — physical health, stress, relationships, and life experiences — and I work with clients to address each of these areas.

I have experience supporting individuals with anxiety, depression, trauma, mood disorders, and life transitions. My approach blends medication management with supportive therapy, patient education, and lifestyle‐based strategies. I strive to create a welcoming, culturally sensitive space where clients feel empowered, understood, and supported.

My goal is to help you build resilience, gain insight, and move toward a healthier, more balanced life.
