I am a psychiatric nurse practitioner with a nursing and counseling career spanning over 25 years. I completed a Bachelor of Arts in Developmental Psychology from Ohio State University in 2000, a Bachelor of Science in Nursing from Otterbein University in 2006, a Master of Science in Nursing from Otterbein University in 2013 and a Doctor of Nursing Practice (Psychiatric-Mental Health Lifespan) at Rush University in 2016. I've taught as a clinical instructor and preceptor at both undergraduate and graduate levels. I have experience working in inpatient, outpatient and residential settings with patients ranging from adolescents to octogenarians. Much of my career has been specializing in substance use disorders, although I am happy to treat a broad range of mental health, as well as dual diagnosis. I am passionate about mental wellness and I enjoy helping people be the best version of themselves!

I'm Beatrice Onifade, a board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner (PMHNP-BC) and founder of Calm Horizons Behavioral Health. With over 5,000 hours of psychiatric practice, a background in intensive care nursing, and experience in leadership at a children's psychiatric hospital, I bring a unique combination of clinical expertise, compassion, and whole-person care to mental health treatment.
What makes me different? My experience extends beyond routine psychiatric appointments. Working in psychiatric hospital settings and previously as an ICU nurse has strengthened my ability to recognize complex symptoms, understand the connection between physical and mental health, and develop thoughtful, individualized treatment plans. I don't believe in rushing appointments, treating patients as diagnoses, or prescribing medication without understanding the person behind the symptoms.
I specialize in psychiatric evaluations, ADHD treatment, anxiety, depression, bipolar disorder, PTSD, trauma-related conditions, and medication management. Whether you're struggling with racing thoughts, poor concentration, panic attacks, emotional exhaustion, mood changes, or medications that haven't worked as expected, I take time to listen, evaluate your concerns, and explore treatment options with you.
My approach combines evidence-based psychiatric care, medication management, supportive psychotherapy, and practical coping strategies to improve your daily functioning and emotional well-being.
Through convenient telehealth appointments, I serve patients in multiple states, including Virginia, Florida, New Jersey, New Mexico, and Washington.
You deserve more than a prescription—you deserve to be heard, understood, and supported. Let's work together toward better mental health, renewed confidence, and lasting wellness.

Hi, I’m Casey. As a board-certified Psychiatric-Mental Health Nurse Practitioner (PMHNP-BC) and the founder of Nexus Psychiatric Services, I built this practice for people seeking exceptional clinical care from an approachable, down-to-earth provider.
My professional foundation comes from my years of experience in the acute inpatient psychiatric setting. Navigating these high-intensity settings taught me to bring calming stability to those who are struggling, and I carry that into every outpatient telehealth visit. Today, my practice supports adults, adolescents, and children ages 6 and up through the everyday challenges that arrive when living with diagnoses such as anxiety, depression, and mood disorders. Beyond general psychiatric care, I offer a deep clinical commitment to neurodivergent individuals and those suffering from identity issues. Whether you are feeling exhausted by life, exploring your identity, or trying to help your child thrive, you are welcome to show up to our sessions exactly as you are.

Frequently asked questions


Find the right psychiatrist for you
Headway makes it easy to find support for your mental health — from finding the right provider, to understanding costs, to scheduling with ease.
Factors to Consider When Choosing a Therapist in Florida
Searching for psychiatrists in Florida starts with understanding the type of care you need. Psychiatrists and psychiatric mental health nurse practitioners can diagnose mental health conditions, prescribe medication, and manage medication as part of care. Therapists provide talk therapy and support through approaches that vary by training and specialty. If you want support for anxiety, depression, ADHD, bipolar disorder, or OCD, look for a psychiatrist whose profile lists experience with your specific concerns. Needs and available psychiatrists can vary across Florida’s urban and rural areas, so reviewing specialties and care style can help you narrow your options.
Across Florida, your search may look different in Miami, Orlando, Tampa, South Florida, or smaller coastal communities. Some people prefer in-person appointments near home or work, while others choose virtual appointments for more scheduling flexibility. Psychiatry appointments, especially medication management visits, are often shorter and less frequent than therapy sessions. Some psychiatrists also offer therapy, and some people work with both a therapist and a prescriber. Before booking, read psychiatrist bios for details on appointment availability, areas of focus, communication style, and whether a free phone consultation is offered.
Psychiatric care in Florida can be a significant expense without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs and understand what you may pay before care begins. On Headway, you can enter your insurance details to see estimated out-of-pocket costs before booking. Nationally, Headway partners with 100+ insurance plans, and coverage depends on your location and exact plan. Headway also verifies that listed psychiatrists are accepting new patients with your plan, so you can browse profiles, compare availability, and book directly when you’re ready.
If you're already taking psychiatric medication and considering switching providers, talk to your current prescriber before changing or stopping any medication — most psychiatric medications shouldn't be stopped abruptly. Anyone experiencing thoughts of self-harm or in acute crisis should call 988 or go to the nearest emergency department rather than wait for an outpatient appointment.
