Odom Psychological Services
Psychologist, PsyD
I am a licensed psychologist who works with adolescents and adults. My clinical approach is direct, collaborative, and practical. I want clients to understand what is contributing to their difficulties and leave therapy with skills they can use in their everyday lives.
My background includes clinical and forensic psychology settings. I have worked with people experiencing trauma, emotional dysregulation, behavioral problems, interpersonal difficulties, and a range of other mental health concerns. That experience has made me attentive to the broader context of a person’s life rather than focusing only on symptoms or diagnostic labels.
In therapy, I primarily use cognitive-behavioral and dialectical behavior therapy approaches. I adapt treatment based on the person in front of me, their goals, and what appears to be maintaining the problem. I tend to work well with clients who want an active therapist and who are willing to look closely at patterns in their emotions, behavior, relationships, and coping.
I value straightforward communication and a strong working relationship. I also use humor when it fits the person and the situation. My role is to help clients make sense of what they are experiencing, identify where change is possible, and build strategies that are useful outside of the therapy session.

Stella Ihesiaba
Psychiatric Nurse Practitioner, DNP, APRN, PMHNP-BC
I believe that every person deserves to be heard, understood, and treated with dignity and respect. No two individuals experience mental health challenges in the same way, and I believe their treatment should reflect those differences.
As a Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner, I take a compassionate, collaborative, and individualized approach to care. I provide psychotherapy, psychiatric evaluations, and medication management, recognizing that healing may involve different approaches for different people.
I take time to listen without rushing, understand how your experiences affect your daily life, and explore what healing and wellness mean to you. I respect your cultural and spiritual beliefs, personal values, and right to make informed decisions about your care.
My goal is to create a safe, nonjudgmental environment where you feel comfortable sharing your concerns, asking questions, and actively participating in your treatment. Through education, practical coping strategies, therapy, and medication when appropriate, we will work together to develop a treatment plan that supports your unique needs and goals.
At Nova Mind Wellness, you are more than a diagnosis. You are an individual with your own story, strengths, challenges, and hopes for the future.
