Addiction therapists & psychiatrists in Buffalo, NY

I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) in the state of New York. My approach to therapy is warm, open-minded, collaborative, and supportive. Throughout that process, I use an integrative

approach utilizing DBT, CBT, strength-based therapy, and solution-focused therapy. I specialize in

couples’ therapy, and treatment resistant individual therapy.

Hello, I'm Olawande Awopetu, an ANCC board-certified Psychiatric Nurse Practitioner. I am honored to serve as a psychiatric and mental health nurse practitioner dedicated to enhancing and safeguarding your mental well-being. With my extensive background in the field, I specialize in delivering empathetic and comprehensive care for a range of mental health conditions, including anxiety, depression, ADHD, PTSD, substance use disorder, bipolar disorder, schizoaffective disorder, and schizophrenia.

Being a young professional in New York City means juggling a lot at once. A demanding job, relationships, family expectations, and the quiet question of whether you're actually building the life you want. If you're feeling stretched thin, stuck, or unsure of your next move, you're not alone, and you don't have to figure it out by yourself.

I work with driven, high-achieving individuals in their 20s and 30s who are navigating career pressure, relationship challenges, family dynamics, and the everyday stress of living and working in a fast-paced city. Many of my clients are successful on paper but feel anxious, burnt out, or disconnected from what actually matters to them. Others are at a crossroads, being a career change, a relationship decision, a move, a new phase of adulthood, and want support thinking it through clearly.

Therapy with me isn't just a space to vent. It's a space to grow. I'll challenge you when it's useful, support you when things are hard, and help you leave each session with something you can actually use. If you're ready to stop just getting through the week and start building a life that feels aligned and sustainable, I'd love to work with you.

I have been working with individuals, couples and families for many years. I am thought of as empathic, warm and engaging. I consider therapy to be a partnership. It is designed to work towards "your" goals, and it is my goal, to help you achieve them. I have worked with people having many different "struggles" or "transitions" in their lives. I am experienced in all areas from trauma, childhood and adult abuse, DV, anxiety, depression, sexuality, family or other relationships, along with substance use disorders/struggles. I also understand the specific challenges that come with parenting, and the issues we encounter coping with the varied neeeds of aging parents. I use many different modalities in our work. I believe that we all can benefit from having a therapist to work with, and I look forward to meeting you. While I currently reside in the Hudson Valley, I am from NYC, and do also understand the specific stressors of city life.

In my work, I am passionate about creating a safe and collaborative environment that can serve as a catalyst for self-understanding and change. I am warm and empathetic. I strive to help clients improve coping skills, interpersonal relationships, heal past trauma, and build self esteem and understanding. I have years of experience working with ages ranging from young children to adults on both inpatient and outpatient clinical settings.

I am a board-certified psychiatrist committed to delivering compassionate, evidence-based, and person‐centered care to individuals experiencing a wide range of mental health challenges. My training includes a general psychiatry residency in New Jersey and an advanced Addiction Psychiatry/NIDA‐T32 Research Fellowship at Columbia University in New York City, where I received specialized experience in the treatment of substance use disorders, comorbidity, and academic research.
