Shola Adewunmi, NP — Psychiatrist in New York

Hi there, I'm Shola!

I work with children through seniors, helping with anxiety, depression, mood disorders, trauma, and adjustment challenges. I'm dedicated to delivering personalized, evidence-based care tailored to your needs. I prioritize building trusting relationships and believe in collaborative decision-making.

My focus

I work with adolescents, adults, and older adults, offering assessment, diagnosis, and evidence-based treatment. My focus includes anxiety disorders, depressive disorders, mood disorders, including bipolar disorder, trauma-related conditions, and adjustment disorders.

My approach

I integrate therapeutic modalities to meet your unique needs. This includes Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy to address negative thought patterns, mindfulness-based techniques to enhance self-awareness and stress management, and psychodynamic therapy to explore underlying issues and foster insight.

My communication style

I create a warm, empathetic, non-judgmental environment where you feel safe and comfortable expressing yourself openly. My approach is collaborative. I actively listen to your concerns, validate your experiences, and empower you to be an active participant in your mental health journey.

My journey to mental healthcare

My passion for mental healthcare stems from witnessing the profound impact of mental health on individuals' lives. What drives me is the opportunity to make a meaningful difference, guiding people towards healing, resilience, and empowerment.

My goals for you

I emphasize setting realistic, achievable goals while challenging you to work towards meaningful change. Throughout the process, I provide support, guidance, and feedback to help you stay motivated and track your progress.

Our first session

You can expect active listening, empathy, validation of your experiences, and collaborative goal-setting. I discuss the treatment approach, answer your questions, and ensure you feel comfortable and informed about the therapeutic process moving forward.
