Hi, I’m Hayley Johnson, MSN, PMHNP-BC. I am a board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner with over 16 years of experience in nursing, including medical, rehabilitation, home health, and behavioral health settings.
I work with adolescents and adults (ages 12+) experiencing anxiety, depression, ADHD, mood disorders, and stress-related conditions. Many of my clients are high-functioning individuals who feel overwhelmed internally, struggle with focus or emotional regulation, or feel stuck despite trying to manage things on their own.
My background in both medical and psychiatric care allows me to take a comprehensive approach. I consider the full picture, including medical history, lifestyle factors, and when appropriate, possible contributors such as thyroid imbalance, vitamin deficiencies, or hormonal changes.
I am committed to providing thoughtful, structured, and evidence-based psychiatric medication management in a way that feels collaborative and respectful.
Welcome! I'm a board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner (PMHNP-BC) dedicated to helping individuals find healing through a well-rounded approach to mental wellness. True healing comes from caring for the whole person: mind, body, and spirit. My goal is to create a safe, compassionate, and judgment-free space where you can be listened to, valued, and empowered to take an active role in your mental health journey. I have years of experience caring for individuals with depression, anxiety, bipolar disorder, trauma, psychosis, substance use disorders, and other complex mental health conditions. Mental health is more than managing symptoms. Mental well-being is closely connected to physical health, relationships, purpose, and daily habits. Together, we will explore how these areas influence your overall wellness and develop a treatment plan that supports lasting growth. This may include medication management when appropriate, education, supportive therapy, healthy lifestyle strategies, stress management, sleep optimization, and building practical coping skills that fit your life.
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.

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 Springfield
Finding the right psychiatrist in Springfield starts with knowing which type of mental health care fits your needs. Psychiatrists and psychiatric nurse practitioners can diagnose mental health conditions and prescribe medication, while therapists focus on talk therapy and behavioral support. If you’re looking for support with anxiety, depression, ADHD, bipolar disorder, OCD, or medication management, review each psychiatrist’s listed specialties, training, and care approach. Both therapy and psychiatry can be useful entry points, depending on what you want help with.
Springfield has a smaller local psychiatrist market than nearby metro areas, so virtual appointments can expand your options while keeping care accessible from home. Some people prefer an in-person office near Franconia, Kingstowne, or Old Keene Mill, while others look for a psychiatrist with virtual availability that fits their schedule. Psychiatry visits for medication management 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 profiles to compare availability, appointment format, communication style, and whether a free phone consultation is offered.
Psychiatric care in Springfield 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 your first visit. Headway helps you find psychiatrists who accept a wide range of insurance plans, are accepting new patients, and offer upfront cost estimates after you enter your insurance details. You can browse psychiatrists in Springfield, review bios, compare virtual and in-person options, 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.
