“Jen let me know that she was not the best fit to help me with what I needed and referred me to a peer of hers who doesn’t seem to be excepting new clients currently. That was disappointing but I appreciated her honesty and her bedside manner was great. I hope I am able to secure a therapist who can help me. ”

Getting to know Jennifer (Jen) Madu
NO MEDICARE OR MEDICAID. CONTROLLED MEDICATION ONLY IN TENNESSEE.I am a holistic psychiatric nurse practitioner who helps people with depression, anxiety, and other mental health concerns. I believe care is more than just medication. My goal is to help you feel better in whatever stage of life you are in—all from the comfort of your home. Treatment may include medication when needed, but we also work on daily coping skills to manage stress, emotions, and life challenges. We work together to improve your overall well-being and help you build a better, healthier life. I see you as my equal, not someone I am above. I believe in being honest, supportive, and caring so you can grow.
I provide medication management, mood enhancement supplementation, weight loss, genetic testing, and therapies. I accept UHC, Aetna, BCBS, Cigna, and Oscar. No medicaid or medicare. Please be aware any controlled medication are only prescribed in Tennessee.
Nobody is invincible. We all need help at some point in our lives. Take the first step. I am here to help.
Telehealth Etiquette:
For a smooth and personable telehealth experience, please ensure you are at home in a private, quiet, and well-lit space, with only you in the room. Dress appropriately and minimize background noise. If the environment is disruptive or unsuitable, the session may be rescheduled.
What should a new client know about working with you?
NO MEDICARE OR MEDICAID. NO CONTROLLED MEDICATION IN ARIZONA. WE DISCOURAGE CONTROLLED MEDICATION IN TENNESSEE. ANY CONTROLLED MEDICATION IN TENNESSEE IS LIMITED AND IS PRESCRIBED ON A CASE BY CASE BASIS.
A former mentor once shared a profound piece of advice that guides my practice to this day: "You have to treat them like your own family."
What I do is more than a profession; it's a life mission. Serving you is not just a job—it's my purpose, deeply rooted in my faith. Regardless of who you are, when we meet virtually, there's no room for ego. I firmly believe in treating my clients as equals. I don't perceive myself as superior. I'm here to serve you.
I'm committed to honesty because I genuinely care about your well-being. If at any point you feel I've erred, I'm not hesitant to apologize. What truly matters to me is your journey to wellness.
Thank you for allowing me the privilege to serve you on this meaningful path.
What is your typical process for working with clients?

Dear [Patient],
To schedule an appointment, please access my calendar on Zocdoc.
Once scheduled:
Expect a call or text from me. I'll provide additional details and grant access to a HIPAA-compliant portal for our video visits (please note, video visits are external and not within Zocdoc).
Your time matters. During our sessions, I prioritize spending adequate time with you. Initial visits are allotted 60 minutes, while follow-ups are scheduled for 30 minutes. Rushing through appointments isn't my style, and I aim to ensure you never feel hurried.
Thank you for entrusting me with your care.
Warm regards,
Jen Madu, Psychiatric Nurse Practitioner

I can’t say enough good things about Jennifer Madu. She’s compassionate, knowledgeable, and truly listens. I felt seen and understood from our very first session.

Her guidance and support have made a real difference in my mental health and overall well-being. I’m so grateful to have found her. Highly recommend to anyone looking for a provider who genuinely cares.

I am so thankful and fortunate to be treated by Jen Madu. I was struggling with anxiety which led to OCD. On our first visit she kindly asked me about my life, job, and family. She determined that the anxiety is related to my specific job and helped me get through it.
Her diagnosis was spot on. She helped me get through it with medication and counseling. My anxiety is pretty much non existent at this point, and my life is so much better from the help she provided. I cannot say enough good things about Jennifer Madu.

I did my treatment with Jen Madu for a very severe depression and anxiety episode I had last year. She was extremely professional, caring, paid attention to all my needs in detail.
I will be forever grateful for the care she provided me. If I’m here well and healthy today s because of her!!!!
She’s very intelligent and competent for what she does. I highly recommend her for any mental health issues you might be experiencing.
