I am a board certified psychiatric nurse practitioner with a primary care background. I graduated from the University of Maryland School of Nursing. My focus areas are adults and geriatric patients.
I have a double Master's and a Doctoral degree in psychology. I began my graduate study In NYC in 2006 doing research and clinical work in attachment theory both with young children and adults. It was there that I witnessed the impact of early and adult attachments. I have trained and worked in a variety of settings and each time I witnessed the fundamental human need of a secure, responsive and safe connection and the impact of isolation and trauma.
Hello, I am a board-certified psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner providing telehealth mental health care for adults and elderly. I have 13 years of experience inpatient/outpatient working with individuals experiencing mental health crisis such as Anxiety, Depression, ADHD, Bipolar d/o (mood changes), Psychotic disorders (thought changes), OCD, and PTSD, post- partum depression, stress and life transitions. I know that starting treatment can feel intimidating, so I focus on creating a comfortable, supportive, and non- judgmental space where you can talk openly about your concerns.
I believe mental health care should be personalized. Everyone’s experience is different, and I take time to listen and understand what you are going through before recommending treatment. My goal is to help you feel heard, supported, and confident in your care.
You deserve to have confidence, joy, and security in your relationships.
I am Madi and I can help. I bring humor, authenticity, and relatability to every session. I believe that we all can grow from examining our relationships--whether they are in our home, in our community, or in ourselves. We deserve connection. I can help you make your way back to it.
Are You Ready to Anchor Yourself? When life delivers a major medical diagnosis, a devastating loss, or the relentless buzz of trauma and anxiety, it is easy to feel entirely unmoored. I provide specialized online psychotherapy to adults across California, Massachusetts, Maryland, South Carolina, Texas, and Washington who are ready to stop just surviving and start reclaiming their lives.My approach centers on controlling what is controllable. Together, we identify practical, clear steps you can take right now to find clarity, process deep-seated emotional pain, and restore your confidence.
I’m Nikelah Hughes, a Licensed Clinical Social Worker and owner of Breakthrough Collective. I provide virtual therapy for adults and couples in Virginia and Maryland navigating anxiety, relationship stress, burnout, overthinking, emotional overwhelm, and life transitions.
Many of my clients are used to being the strong one for everyone else while struggling silently with stress, people-pleasing, communication issues, or difficulty prioritizing themselves. My approach is warm, supportive, and collaborative while also helping clients build practical tools to better manage emotions, relationships, and everyday stress.
I have had the opportunity and blessing to work with individuals from all dynamic backgrounds and in those endeavors have acquired a great appreciation and respect for what each individual struggle with. It is my hope and responsibility to get them through this
I am committed to providing compassionate, individual care in a welcoming and respectful environment. I believe that every client deserves to be listened to and treated with dignity. My goal is to foster a trusting therapeutic relationship where you feel comfortable discussing your concerns and actively participating in your treatment
