Hi! I'm Olivia. I've been in therapy practice for six years, and am grateful for the opportunity to get to know you! As a queer and neurodivergent person, my career as a therapist has always moved in tandem with my commitment to social and economic justice. My work has taken me to settings with folks experiencing homelessness in South Los Angeles; with justice-involved adults in treatment court diversion programs in San Francisco's Tenderloin neighborhood; in young adult shelters for art therapy groups; with low-income immigrant parents of young children; and with teens and young adults with significant trauma histories.
Through all my roles I always commit to centering community and individual strengths that help arm my clients with the tools necessary to repel various types of systemic violence and oppression. I believe that therapy is inherently political because being human is political.
Hello! I’m Najwa Azizi, a board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner (PMHNP-BC) dedicated to helping individuals navigate life’s challenges with compassion and support. I specialize in treating anxiety, depression, ADHD, trauma, mood disorders, stress, and burnout through a personalized and collaborative approach to care. With a background in both behavioral health and critical care nursing, I understand the importance of treating the whole person — emotionally, mentally, and physically. My goal is to create a welcoming, judgment-free space where clients feel safe, heard, and empowered to grow, heal, and reach their full potential.
I am very honest, caring, real and genuine. Encouragement and support for their future journey.

Factors to Consider When Choosing an ADHD Therapist in Oakland
Searching for ADHD therapists in Oakland starts with knowing what kind of support fits your needs. Therapy can help with concerns related to focus, organization, time management, impulse control, and emotional regulation. Some people look for therapeutic support, such as cognitive behavioral therapy for ADHD, skills-based work, or executive function support. Others may also want medication management from a psychiatrist. Adult ADHD and pediatric ADHD can call for different experience, so review each therapist’s listed specialties, age groups, and approach before booking.
In Oakland, your search may include therapists near downtown, Rockridge, Temescal, Lake Merritt, or nearby East Bay neighborhoods. Virtual appointments can also make it easier to find an ADHD specialist for adults or a therapist with experience supporting ADHD alongside anxiety or depression. As you compare options, look at appointment availability, whether the therapist is accepting new clients, and whether a free phone consultation is offered. A therapist’s bio can show how they describe their style, session structure, and experience with ADHD concerns.
Therapy in Oakland can be a significant investment without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs and see your estimated out-of-pocket cost before you book. Headway helps you search for ADHD therapists who match your preferences and are accepting new patients, and you can enter your insurance details on Headway to confirm coverage and see your estimated out-of-pocket cost before you book. You can browse profiles, compare specialties, and book directly when you’re ready.
If you're already taking psychiatric medication and considering switching providers, talk to your current prescriber before changing or stopping any medication — most psychiatric medications shouldn't be stopped abruptly. Anyone experiencing thoughts of self-harm or in acute crisis should call 988 or go to the nearest emergency department rather than wait for an outpatient appointment.
