Awawu Agbabiaka

Finding the right psychiatric provider can feel overwhelming — and I want you to know that reaching out takes real courage. I'm Dr. Awawu Agbabiaka, a board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner (PMHNP-BC) with a doctorate in nursing practice and a background spanning mental health and substance use care. I believe that healing looks different for everyone. My practice offers psychiatric evaluations, medication management, and ongoing collaborative care via telehealth across Maryland. I work alongside your therapist or primary care provider to ensure your care is connected, not siloed. You deserve care that sees all of you. I'd be honored to be part of your team.

My approach is collaborative, trauma-informed, and rooted in treating the whole person — not just symptoms. Whether you're navigating anxiety, depression, ADHD, a mood disorder, or the complex intersection of mental health and substance use, we'll work together to find a path forward that fits your life. I see adults, adolescents, and perinatal patients, and I'm deeply committed to providing affirming, culturally responsive care for the LGBTQ+ community, first responders, veterans, and women at every stage of life. For those who have experienced trauma, I bring a thoughtful, paced approach that prioritizes safety and trust.

Patients can expect a non-judgemental, supportive, and transparent provider. I have dedicated myself to motivating patients to be the best version of themselves through medication management and evidence-based therapies. I look forward to working with you!
