I’m Sofia, a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW), Certified Trauma Professional (CTP), and Certified Eating Disorder Specialist (CEDS) based in New Jersey. This work is deeply meaningful to me, both professionally and personally, and I bring that understanding into how I show up—with care, warmth, and authenticity.

I support adolescents and adults who feel stuck in their relationship with food, body image, or exercise, as well as those navigating anxiety, OCD, depression, trauma, or life transitions. I currently serve as Program Director for an eating disorder PHP/IOP and have extensive experience supporting clients across all stages of recovery.

Hi, I'm Dr. Olushola Bakare (she/her), and I'd love to work with you.

I know how exhausting it can feel to keep pushing through anxiety, depression, ADHD, or concerns around intimacy and sexuality — especially when you've already tried to "just push through it" and you're tired of being tired. If that's where you are, I want you to know there's a path forward, and I'd be honored to walk it with you.Regarding cancellations, please be advised that failing to cancel at least 24 hours in advance will result in an $80 fee. Furthermore, cancellations or rescheduling made within 3 hours of this 24-hour window (e.g., canceling or rescheduling at 11 AM for a 2:00 PM appointment the following day) provide insufficient time to offer the slot to other clients and may result in discharge from the practice. To ensure your appointment time remains available for others, I kindly request that you provide at least 36 hours' notice for any cancellations.

Follow-up appointments must be scheduled within seven days of the session. I do not communicate with clients while driving, and a cancellation fee will apply.

Additionally, if you reside in a state where I am not licensed, please refrain from booking an appointment, as this will result in a no-show charge. I am licensed in MN, ID, MA, FL, NJ, MD, DE, IL, DC, and CT. I will charge $1,000 and $ 200 every hour if subpoenaed.

Psychiatric Mental Health NP

Virtual • New Jersey


Your mind and body are speaking—are you listening? As a board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner with over a decade of experience in high-stakes intensive care, I understand what many overlook: mental and physical health are inseparable.

In critical care, I saw how stress, trauma, and anxiety manifest in the body—tight chests, sleepless nights, unexplained pain. And when the pandemic hit, I witnessed the silent emotional suffering of patients, families, and healthcare workers alike. That moment changed everything.

I chose psychiatry because healing your mind is just as vital as healing your body. If you’re feeling overwhelmed, exhausted, or like no one sees what you’re carrying—you don’t have to hold it alone. I’m here to help you reconnect, restore, and rise.

Do you understand your experiences intellectually, but still find yourself reacting in ways you don’t understand? You may know where your patterns come from, yet still feel anxious, overwhelmed, disconnected, or stuck in painful relationship patterns.

I work with adults who are ready to understand not only why they feel the way they do, but also to create meaningful change in how they experience themselves, their relationships, and their lives.

My work is especially focused on trauma, attachment wounds, narcissistic and emotional abuse, sexual trauma, relationship difficulties, anxiety, self-worth, and major life transitions. I bring a warm, compassionate, and deeply individualized approach to therapy. I believe you should feel safe enough to explore difficult experiences without feeling judged, rushed, or pressured to “just move on.”

Together, we look at the connection between your experiences, emotions, thoughts, body, and relationships. My goal is not simply to help you cope with symptoms, but to help you develop greater self-understanding, self-trust, emotional freedom, and a stronger sense of who you are.
