Hi, I’m Dr. Olamide Alabi, a board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner (PMHNP) with a passion for helping people navigate mental health challenges. I have over a decade of experience in mental health and substance abuse treatment, working in hospitals, community mental health centers, and recovery programs.
I earned my Doctor of Nursing Practice (DNP) from Samford University and hold multiple degrees in nursing, law, and agricultural economics. My diverse background, having studied in Nigeria, and the U.S., helps me provide culturally competent and inclusive care.
I specialize in treating anxiety, depression, PTSD, and substance use disorders. My goal is to create a safe, supportive space where clients feel heard and empowered on their journey to wellness.
I believe in empowering people to take charge of their own present and future lives. Generally, when you seek therapy, you are overwhelmed and ready to change. I believe you have it within yourself to make sense of your life, focus on creating the life you desire, and feel in control. I use strength and solution-based, client -centered psychotherapy. I am nonjudgmental, compassionate, and have a sense of humor. Regardless of the weight of therapy, we will also laugh!
Loving someone who struggles with addiction can quietly take over your whole life. You worry constantly, you smooth things over, you set a boundary and then talk yourself right out of it, and somewhere along the way you lose track of your own needs. If that's you, I understand it in a way that goes beyond training. Alongside my years as a counselor, I've spent more than two decades in the Al-Anon community, and I work with adults who are worn down from caring for, worrying about, or trying to fix someone they love. You don't have to keep carrying it alone.
10 years post license, with a variety of settings and populations, I currently specialize in treating adult women, addressing trauma, and utilizing my training specific to personality disorders. I am EMDR and EAGALA certified, DBT trained, and love dogs and horses.
I'm a Licensed Marriage & Family Therapist (LMFT) and Board Certified Hypnotherapist based in Madison, TN, with 16 years in practice. I hold a Master's in Clinical Psychology from Pepperdine University and am a certified hypnotherapist through the National Guild of Hypnotists. I'm also an AAMFT Approved Supervisor, so I train and supervise other clinicians in addition to seeing clients myself.
I work with adults and families around addiction, trauma and PTSD, and impulse control disorders, along with anxiety, low self-esteem, mood disorders, OCD, relationship issues, and compulsive or disruptive patterns. Hypnotherapy and Internal Family Sytems are my favorite modalities.
I offer both in-person sessions (at Watershed Wellness Cooperative in Madison) and telehealth, with daytime, evening, and weekend availability.
With over 43 years of experience, I am passionate about helping individuals, adolescents, and couples navigate life’s challenges. I specialize in working with clients facing anxiety, depression, divorce, grief, trauma, school-related concerns, parenting challenges, and relationship issues. My approach is grounded in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), combined with a truth-filled Christian perspective, fostering strength, resilience, and hope.
I believe in treating every client with respect, sensitivity, and compassion. Through a non-judgmental, supportive, and honest approach, I empower individuals to overcome obstacles and work toward a peaceful, meaningful, and purpose-filled life.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Therapist in Cookeville
Searching for therapists in Cookeville starts with finding someone whose experience matches what you want support with. People look for therapy for many reasons, including anxiety, depression, grief, relationship challenges, stress, and life transitions. As you compare a Cookeville therapist, look for listed specialties, therapy approaches, and the kinds of concerns they work with most often. Bios can also show whether a therapist uses approaches like cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavior therapy, or trauma-informed care.
In a smaller city like Cookeville, local in-person openings may be more limited than in larger Tennessee markets. Virtual therapy can expand your options while still connecting you with a therapist licensed in Tennessee. When narrowing your search, consider appointment times, whether the therapist is accepting new patients, and whether their communication style seems like a fit. Reading profiles before booking can help you understand what sessions may be like and whether a free phone consultation is available.
Therapy in Cookeville can be a significant investment without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs. Headway helps you find therapists who match your needs and offer in-person or virtual care, and you can enter your insurance details to check coverage for specific providers.
