Anxiety and depression therapists and psychiatrists in Buffalo, NY

My name is Janet O’Hare. In my psychotherapy practice, I work with people of all ages and many backgrounds, with all kinds of goals and concerns. These often include:

· Addressing worries and stresses

· Navigating knotty problems in life

· Working on relationships

· Welcoming a new child into the family

· Dealing with a serious illness

· Handling a major career challenge

· Managing trauma-related issues

I am especially interested in the zone where the waves of the soul crash on the rocks of the body. I have a great deal of experience with trauma of many types, in many degrees of severity. I have also worked extensively with, and have a special love for, new families, mothers and childbearing. I am honored to be present at the end of life. I am a psychodynamic feminist and am deeply interested in history and in political and moral movements.

I’m a Licensed Mental Health Practitioner with extensive experience leading and providing care in community-based mental health programs. I’ve spent many years working with adults and young adults navigating anxiety, depression, trauma, work and family stress, and major life transitions.

As both a clinician and a leader, I value creating spaces where people feel seen, respected, and understood, especially those who may have felt overlooked in other systems. I’m particularly passionate about supporting women, professionals in helping roles, caregivers, and people of color who are balancing many responsibilities.

Clients often describe me as warm, grounded, and straightforward. I’ll bring clinical expertise, honesty, and compassion to our work together so you don’t have to go through this season of your life alone.

My name is Linda Nwahiri, I am a board certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner. I have vast experience as a nurse and APRN with over 12 years of experience in chronic disease and complex care management. As a Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner (PMHNP), I provide compassionate, evidence-based care through medication management and supportive therapy. I take time to listen to your story, answer your questions, and ensure you feel like an active partner in your care. I believe treatment works best when it's personalized and collaborative.

My goal is not only to help reduce symptoms but also to help you build resilience, regain confidence, and improve your overall quality of life. Whether you're seeking care for the first time or returning after previous treatment, you'll be welcomed with compassion, respect, and without judgment.

I look forward to getting to know you and supporting you on your journey toward better mental health and well-being.

I have been an LCSW for over 15 years, and anxiety is where I do my deepest work..the racing thoughts, the physical tension, the constant "what if" that won't quiet down. I also work with clients navigating depression, major life changes, grief and divorce. But if anxiety is running the show in your life, that is exactly where I want to start.

I became a social worker because I believe people are more capable of change than they are often given credit for—they need the right support to get there.

I'm a licensed clinical social worker with over a decade of experience working with individuals, families, and couples of all ages. I specialize in anxiety, depression, trauma, stress and mood disorders, ADHD, autism, and emotional dysregulation — but I'm always focused on the whole person, not just the diagnosis. I also work closely with parents and caregivers, because some of the most powerful change happens when the people around you understand you better, too.

I have 20 years experience and a compassionate heart. I am ready to walk beside you on your healing journey. Experienced treating veterans. I am honored to serve America's heroes! Individual therapy for adults only.
