Getting to know Adekunbi Akins

Hi, my name is Kunbi Akins. I am an experienced psychiatric and mental health provider serving Virginia and DC. I graduated with my master’s degree from George Washington University. I have strong expertise in conducting thorough assessments, diagnosis, and drawing treatment plans for my clients. I also provide medication management services, educating my clients and prescribing medications that best address their mental health needs and lifestyles. I do this in conjunction with psychotherapy services. I serve school-age kids starting from age 6, adolescents, and adults with ADHD, Autism, Depression, Bipolar disorders, Anxiety disorders, PTSD, and other life’s stresses. Your psychiatric medications are chosen and managed carefully, keeping safety, effectiveness, and evidence-based practice in mind, and are often combined with therapies. As a practitioner, I have helped many individuals make sense of life. Many young people and adults suffer from ADHD, which affects their daily function and productivity. My clients have many options of stimulant and nonstimulant ADHD medications to choose from, and these medications have proven effective for many of them. I also prescribe medications and offer psychotherapy to address conditions like Generalized Anxiety Disorder, social anxiety, panic disorders, and different types of phobias. Depression hurts, and many people do not know that depression can be accompanied by unusual symptoms like anxiety, irritability, insomnia, appetite changes, and chronic or somatic pain. Choosing the right medication for your depression is very important and cannot be overemphasized. Whether my client struggles with mood disorders, interpersonal conflicts, difficulty regulating strong emotions, or anxiety issues, I have used proven psychotherapeutic approaches to help them start living a happy life again.

More information on payments and coverage

Payment is due after each session and will be charged with your card on file for any portion of patient responsibility. Receipts will be provided at the time of the charge. This typically takes place 2-4 weeks after the session, once your insurance has had a chance to process the claim. We try our best to verify eligibility, but it is ultimately your responsibility to check coverage and out-of-pocket costs for services. For out-of-network visits, you will be billed at the provider’s self-pay rate, and we can provide an invoice for you to submit to your insurance for potential out-of-network reimbursement based on your plan’s benefits.
