I'm Abiola Odusanya, D.N.P., PMHNP. I have 20 years of experience in psychiatry. I work with clients who have ADHD, depression, anxiety, grief, PTSD, bipolar disorder, and other mental health challenges. I'm a fun-loving mom of teens and young adults who knows firsthand that life can be messy, stressful, and unpredictable—whether you're a teen navigating school and friendships, a parent juggling family and work, or an adult facing life's unexpected challenges. I see each client as a unique person and understand that mental health isn't one-size-fits-all.

I take a holistic, individualized approach to care, seeing each person as more than their diagnosis. I work closely with clients and families to create a judgment-free space where you can feel heard, understood, and empowered in your mental health journey. My goal is to provide compassionate, practical care tailored to your needs.

Outside of work, I enjoy spending time with my family—talking, watching movies, and shopping. I also enjoy traveling, reading, and listening to gospel music. I believe mental health care can be supportive and uplifting, and I'm here to walk alongside you on your journey to healing, resilience, and growth.

As a Licensed Social Worker with a background in intensive healthcare, I bring a deeply compassionate, real-world approach to healing minds and supporting emotional well-being. I specialize in anxiety and depression, helping individuals navigate the heavy seasons of life with evidence-based, trauma-informed care.

I provide structured cognitive-behavioral therapy and personalized coping tools to support you in managing anxiety, overcoming depression, and facing life-altering challenges with renewed confidence and resilience.

Whether you’re seeking to find internal peace or develop practical strategies to thrive, you don’t have to walk this path alone. Let’s work together to build a fulfilling and resilient future.

Hi, I'm Simone, a licensed clinical social worker passionate about helping individuals navigate life's challenges. I strive to create a supportive space where clients can show up fully as themselves without judgment. I work with children, adolescents, adults, and older adults, and I meet each client where they are while honoring their unique identities, strengths, and cultural and lived experiences. Many of the clients I work with are seeking to heal from past traumas, improve family dynamics, build healthier relationships, manage stress and anxiety, and reconnect with their sense of purpose while rebuilding their self-confidence. 

My goal is to help clients feel empowered to grow, heal, and create lasting change. I believe therapy is a collaborative process that doesn't require you to become someone different—it begins with feeling heard and respected as you reconnect. My work incorporates CBT, DBT, solution-focused brief therapy, mindfulness, and motivational interviewing. 

I believe that no matter where you are in your journey, you do not have to navigate it alone. Taking care of yourself is the most courageous act you can take. If you are ready to take the next step and begin your healing, I invite you to schedule an appointment. Together, we can work toward creating the best and healthiest version of yourself.

I'm a bilingual psychiatric mental health nurse practitioner who believes mental health care should feel personal, collaborative, and judgment-free. I provide both medication management and psychotherapy, allowing us to address your mental health from a whole-person perspective. I work with adolescents, adults, and seniors navigating concerns such as anxiety, depression, ADHD, bipolar disorder, PTSD, OCD, and panic. I'm fluent in English and Spanish and welcome clients from all backgrounds, including those seeking culturally responsive care in either language.

My approach is collaborative, compassionate, and tailored to you. I value psychotherapy and believe meaningful progress comes from feeling heard, understood, and supported. When appropriate, I also collaborate with your therapist and other healthcare providers—with your consent—to help ensure your care is connected and aligned with your goals.

Starting or restarting your mental health journey can feel overwhelming, but you don't have to navigate it alone. I'm here to listen, understand, and support you without judgment. If you're ready to take the next step, I invite you to schedule an appointment. We can start where you are and work together toward feeling more balanced and like yourself again.
