Risikat Lawal

I help my patients work toward complete physical, mental, and social well-being. With empathy, compassion, and professionalism, I create treatment plans tailored to your needs.

My goal is to remove the fear and stigma around psychiatric medications and treatments, while making you feel comfortable, supported, and empowered to take charge of your mental health. I treat every patient the way I would want to be treated — with respect, care, and understanding.

What I Offer

• Comprehensive psychiatric evaluations covering all aspects of your history
• Clear explanations of your diagnosis, why it applies, and treatment options
• Education on medications — why they are chosen, how they work, and what to expect
• Teaching of coping skills to manage stress and daily challenges
• Encouragement to be informed and involved in your diagnosis, medications, and treatment plan
• Respect, empathy, compassion, and attentive listening in every session

Tools Used in Treatment:

• Medication prescribing & management
• Motivational interviewing
• Brief psychotherapy

After our first session, you’ll feel heard, understood, and supported. You’ll leave with clarity about your diagnosis, treatment options, and the hope that things can get better — because you have a voice in your care.
