“Highly recommend Dr. Akerele. She was attentive to my needs and concerns, and I feel as though her assessment and treatment plan are accurate. Looking forward to seeing her again soon!”
Lindsey S.November 3, 2025Video visit
“She was very professional, listened to me and helped me access the situation. She went beyond that and helped guide me on what it really was and how to get treatment. She came off cordial, respectful and allowed me to process while giving me bits of comfort during our time together. She “worked” with me which is something rare in this space. I highly recommend.”

My approach combines evidence-based practices with a personalized touch, ensuring that our work together is tailored to your unique needs and goals.
During our sessions, I emphasize open communication and collaboration.

As a Psychiatry Mental Health Nurse Practitioner, I integrate both medication management and psychotherapy into my practice. If medication is indicated, I will discuss the options with you, including potential benefits and side effects, to make informed decisions together.
In terms of talk therapy, I often utilize techniques such as cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT) to help you explore thought patterns and behaviors that may be impacting your mental health. Sessions may involve discussing your experiences, identifying goals, and developing strategies to manage symptoms and improve overall well-being.
Throughout our work together, my aim is to create a partnership where you feel heard, understood, and supported in your journey toward better mental health. Each session is tailored to meet your evolving needs, ensuring that we focus on what matters most to you.

I absolutely loved her. She truly listened to me, let me talk, express myself, and genuinely heard what I was saying. She took the time to understand how I felt about my treatment and was extremely thorough with both her words and her approach. I really appreciate her compassion and professionalism. Unlike my previous psychiatrist, I felt that she genuinely cared about my condition and took me seriously. I can’t recommend her enough to anyone who wants to feel heard, understood, and supported. God bless her; she’s an amazing psychiatrist!

She was great!
March 29, 2025Jakob Z.Verified patientVideo visit
My psychiatrist was the best one I’ve ever seen before, she is understanding, welcoming, and straight to the point (she knew what I was talking about without pressing me having to go uncomfortably in depth which made me feel able to speak freely and open up about my personal issues. I would recommend her to anyone who needs a clear answer as to what had been troubling them because together we solved issues that I have been combating for years within 30 min.
