Olajumoke Adeyemi

Psychiatric Mental Health NP

Virtual • California


Olajumoke Adeyemi, NP, is a dual board-certified Family Nurse Practitioner and Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner based in Long beach, California. I specialize in maternal mental health and am dual board-certified in Family Practice and Psychiatry. This combined background allows me to understand both the medical and emotional complexities that can arise during pregnancy, the postpartum period, and the transition into motherhood.

I support women experiencing postpartum depression, anxiety, mood changes, intrusive thoughts, irritability, emotional overwhelm, and sleep disruption. My approach is compassionate, individualized, and centered on helping you feel more emotionally grounded and supported during this important stage of life.

If you’re reading this and quietly wondering, “Why does this feel so much harder than I thought it would?” — you are not alone.

Motherhood can be beautiful and deeply meaningful, but it can also feel overwhelming, isolating, exhausting, and heavy. You can love your baby fiercely and still feel anxious, tearful, irritable, depleted, or simply unlike yourself.

Struggling does not mean you are failing as a mother. Sometimes, it means you need a space where your well-being matters, too.

You deserve compassionate care that recognizes you as a whole person—not only as a mother. With appropriate support and treatment, it is possible to feel more like yourself again and experience motherhood with greater confidence, stability, and connection.

Saby Kirpal

Saby Kirpal

Psychiatric Mental Health NP

Virtual • Westlake Village, CA


I'm Saby Kirpal, a Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner dedicated to providing comprehensive mental health care. I hold Master's degrees from Chamberlain University and Walden University, graduating with Presidential Honors, reflecting my commitment to clinical excellence. My diverse professional background spans inpatient psychiatric hospitals, residential treatment centers, and outpatient clinics, giving me insight into mental health treatment at every level of care. I specialize in treating depression, anxiety, autism spectrum disorders, eating disorders, and substance use disorders across age groups. My experience includes working with children as young as eight through adults in crisis stabilization, residential treatment, and ongoing medication management.

What makes my practice unique is the integration of my nursing background with psychiatric expertise. I understand how physical health, medications, lifestyle factors, and mental health interconnect. Being trilingual in English, Hindi, and Punjabi, with conversational Spanish, allows me to serve diverse communities and appreciate how culture shapes mental health experiences.

I've worked from UCSF Health to community clinics, teaching me that excellent care isn't about the setting—it's about the relationship. Whether you're seeking help for the first time, between providers, or managing ongoing conditions, I'm here to partner with you. My approach centers on listening first, explaining clearly, and making decisions together. Mental health treatment should never feel like something done to you, but rather something we navigate together. I'm committed to creating a space where you feel respected, understood, and genuinely supported.
