Olayinka Oyawusi, NP — Psychiatrist in New York

Hi there, I'm Olayinka!

I am committed to providing holistic mental health care to my patients. I studied nutrition and food science with a concentration in Dietetics, which informs my comprehensive approach to wellness and mental health treatment.

My focus

I like to assist clients in better managing their Depression, Anxiety, Bipolar Disorder, Impulse Control Disorders, Mood Disorders, Obsessive-Compulsive disorder (OCD), Oppositional Defiance disorder (ODD), Psychosis, Self-Harming, and Sleep or Insomnia.

My approach

I value creating a non-judgmental environment, practicing empathy, attentive listening, effective communication, and recognizing that a patient's needs take precedence as the crucial elements of patient care. I offer individualized care to tailor to your unique needs through medication management, therapy, and wellness programs.

My communication style

I strive to foster a supportive and empathetic environment during my sessions with patients. I create a safe space where individuals feel comfortable expressing their thoughts and emotions without fear of judgment. My patients often describe the experience of working with me as compassionate, respectful, and focused on their well-being.

My journey to mental healthcare

My background in nutrition and mental health has shaped my belief that true wellness comes from treating the whole person. I bring this holistic perspective to every patient interaction, combining evidence-based care with genuine compassion.

My goals for you

We'll work together to identify your goals and create a personalized treatment plan. Through regular check-ins and adjustments, I'll support you in building the skills and strategies needed to achieve lasting change and improved well-being.

In our first session, we'll discuss what brings you to care and what you hope to achieve. I'll learn about your history, current challenges, and strengths. Together, we'll begin developing a treatment plan that feels right for you.
