About Dr. Adeigbola

I grew up in New York City, where I learned to connect with people from all walks of life. Working with diverse communities has given me valuable experience in understanding and supporting individuals from different backgrounds, including various ethnicities, income levels, ages, genders, and sexual orientations, as well as those with different religious beliefs. I approach my work with sensitivity and cultural competence.

I earned my medical degree from Howard University College of Medicine and my undergraduate degree from Cornell University. My professional training took place at New York Presbyterian Hospital on both the Cornell and Columbia campuses. Over the course of my career, I have encountered many individuals going through significant life events, which has enhanced my ability to provide personalized psychiatric care effectively.

In my own professional life, I have worked in non-profit organizations, hospital settings, and private practice. At New York Presbyterian Hospital - Westchester Division, I served as the chief of the outpatient addiction clinic and later spent several years working in the Inpatient Women’s Unit. These diverse experiences have honed my skills, ultimately improving the lives of the people I worked with. For over a decade, I have been practicing privately.

My primary goal is to help individuals achieve mental wellness by collaborating with them to manage symptoms and providing education on mental health. I support my patients through their struggles, address concerns about treatment and medications, and assist them in regaining functionality and improving their overall well-being. Creating a welcoming and non-judgmental environment for all patients is crucial to me. I work collaboratively with each individual, helping them establish goals, develop plans, and implement changes while emphasizing the importance of active listening to truly understand their experiences beyond just their symptoms.
