continues to grow, with many residents struggling to find timely support and
treatment. In response, OCH Evergreen Clinic is expanding access to behavioral
health services, offering a full range of therapy and medication management options

PMHNP-BC, and Oyetunji “TJ” Oyedji, PMHNP. The addition of these experienced

growing needs of the Springfield community. This growth enables the organization
to offer a wider range of therapy and counseling options for individuals, and families
seeking care and support.
OCH’s behavioral health department offers a full range of outpatient services,
including:
- Therapy Services: Available for individuals ages 5 and older

In addition to behavioral health services, patients have access to wraparound care through the adjacent Family Medicine Clinic, providing a holistic approach to both physical and mental health needs for adults, children, and seniors.
