OLD BRIDGE, N.J., Oct. 27, 2021 /PRNewswire/ -- Innerspace Counseling is thrilled to announce that our team has grown with the addition of Ololade "Lola" Ekwere, PMHNP-BC, FNP-BC. Lola brings invaluable expertise and knowledge to our already thriving practice. We're beyond excited to see how she helps our approaches and techniques adapt and evolve with the ever-changing mental healthcare landscape.

Lola has practiced for over 12 years in various capacities in healthcare, serving patients and their families. After graduating with an undergraduate degree in Nursing, Cum Laude from William Paterson University in 2009, Lola began her career as an Intensive Care Unit nurse, catering to patients and families at their most vulnerable in the hospital.

Seeking advancement in her career and expanding her breadth of knowledge, Lola returned for further education, obtaining a Master's Degree in Nursing from Rutgers University - UMDNJ. Lola graduated with honors in her chosen concentration of Family practice/Primary care.

While practicing as a primary care advanced practice nurse (APN), Lola observed that several of her patients needed significant mental health care as part of their overall treatment and wellness maintenance plans. This led her to pursue additional training and certification in Psychiatric and Mental Health care from Maryville University, where she also graduated with Honors.

During her career and education, Lola developed comfort in treating individuals with anxiety, depression, bipolar disorders, sleep disorders, and other common psychiatric disorders. Because she understands the interconnectedness of mental and physical health, she works collaboratively with each patient to prioritize and meet their mental health needs. She works effectively with children, teens, and adults alike. Additionally, she is empathetic, listens, and practices using evidence-based guidelines in order to provide the best possible care for her patients.

Lola brings a fresh perspective and all-new ideas to the Innerspace Counseling team. We're excited to see what we can learn from her to, in turn, further help our patients.
