About
As a woman, a mother, and someone who has experienced personal loss, I bring both professional expertise and lived experience to my work as a PMHNP, offering a compassionate, culturally responsive space where you can feel seen, heard, and supported in your healing.
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 one who can identify with my own personal trauma, I am here to offer support. I know that life can get tough. I have experience working with clients that have dealt with mental health disorders, substance abuse, domestic violence, grief and anger management. I offer CBT therapy, trauma informed therapy and use tools such as meditation, journaling and play therapy as well as others. With support, we can begin to feel better one day at a time.

My approach is gentle and caring, using CBT, narrative therapy, and trauma-focused solutions to help guide my clients to self-efficacy. I like to infuse journaling, meditation, and workbooks/resources to support my clients. I also have a 40-hour Domestic Violence Certificate and use Gottman training for couples.
As you are on your journey, you deserve support and a safe space to help you face your mental health challenges. Life can become better once you learn the coping skills, tools, and support systems to help you navigate through challenging times. Take the next step and schedule an appointment with me.
