Our History
Hadassah Behavioral Health Nutrition and Wellness Clinic was founded with a simple but powerful vision:
“To transform lives by providing integrated behavioral health, developmental, psychological, nutrition, and wellness services that place individuals and families at the center of care.”
Our Founder, Dorcas “Ponmile” Olowu, understands the journey of many families not only as a healthcare professional but also as the mother of a child on the autism spectrum. Her personal experience navigating assessments, therapies, educational services, and the search for coordinated care gave her a deep appreciation of both the challenges families face and the support they truly need.
She recognized that many families raising children with autism, developmental disabilities, behavioral challenges, mental health concerns, or complex nutritional needs often struggle to access comprehensive, evidence-informed, and compassionate services in one place. Instead, they are frequently required to navigate multiple providers, coordinate fragmented care, and advocate tirelessly for their loved ones—often without the guidance and integrated support they deserve.
Having experienced many of these challenges firsthand, Dorcas envisioned a different model of care—one that places the individual and family at the center of every decision. She believed that behavioral health, developmental care, nutritional science, mental wellness, family education, and professional collaboration should work together to provide holistic, person-centered care.
That vision became Hadassah Behavioral Health Nutrition and Wellness Clinic.
Today, our clinic is committed to delivering coordinated, multidisciplinary, and evidence-informed services that empower individuals, strengthen families, and improve quality of life. Every program we offer reflects our belief that compassionate care, early intervention, family partnership, and a holistic approach can help individuals reach their fullest potential.
At Hadassah, we are more than a healthcare provider—we are a trusted partner walking alongside individuals and families with hope, expertise, and an unwavering commitment to helping every person thrive.
Where Every Mind Thrives, Every Child Matters, and Every Family Finds Hope.
Our telemedicine clinic brings together professionals from behavioral health, psychology, nutrition, developmental services, education, and family support to deliver comprehensive care under one roof.
We are particularly passionate about serving children with autism spectrum disorder, ADHD, developmental delays, behavioral challenges, learning differences, and feeding difficulties while also supporting adolescents, adults, caregivers, educators, healthcare professionals, and organizations.
One of the defining features of our clinic is our commitment to integrating Behavioral Health and Nutritional Psychology into our approach. We recognize the growing body of scientific research exploring how nutrition may influence brain health, emotional well-being, cognitive function, and behavior. By considering nutritional factors alongside psychological, developmental, medical, environmental, and social influences, we strive to provide holistic, individualized care that supports the whole person.
Today, Hadassah Behavioral Health Nutrition and Wellness Clinic Limited continues to expand its services with a vision of becoming one of Africa’s leading centers for behavioral health, autism services, nutritional psychology, professional education, research, and family-centered care.
