Dr Waheed Olajide Lawal is a psychiatrist certified by the Royal College of Physicians and Surgeons in Canada, with more than 15 years of experience in the field. He runs a private clinic in Winnipeg, focusing on general adult psychiatry. His clinical work includes the diagnosis and management of conditions such as mood and anxiety disorders, schizophrenia, bipolar disorder, and neurodevelopmental challenges. His practice is marked by a steady, patient-focused approach and a deep respect for the individual needs of every person he treats. He understands that beginning psychiatric care is often a difficult step for many. Patients may feel uncertain, overwhelmed, or even fearful when seeking help. In response, he offers a calm, supportive environment where each individual is treated with dignity and without judgment. His ability to listen carefully and explain complex mental health issues in simple, understandable terms allows patients to feel more at ease. He encourages open dialogue and ensures that patients are involved in all aspects of their care. Rather than applying a one-size-fits-all solution, he carefully assesses each patient’s symptoms, history, and concerns. He aims to arrive at an accurate diagnosis and then build a treatment plan that fits the individual's circumstances. He often combines medication with various forms of psychotherapy, choosing the approach that best supports the person’s goals. Techniques like Cognitive Behavioral Therapy help patients reshape negative thoughts, while mindfulness practices may be introduced to support emotional balance and reduce stress. When treating more complex conditions such as psychosis, he takes a clear and structured approach. Symptoms like hallucinations and delusions can disrupt daily life and affect a person’s sense of reality. In these cases, he works carefully to help individuals regain control and function, often through the use of antipsychotic medication, ongoing therapy, and additional support services. He focuses on assisting patients to understand what they are experiencing and giving them the tools to manage their symptoms over time. His expertise also extends to neurodevelopmental disorders, including autism spectrum disorder and ADHD. He approaches these conditions with the understanding that they impact more than just mental health—they affect how people communicate, learn, and navigate daily life. He takes time to understand each individual’s needs and tailors a care plan that might include behavioral interventions, medication, or supportive routines. He also encourages practical lifestyle changes that improve focus, social engagement, and well-being. He regularly attends psychiatric conferences and educational events to ensure his practice stays aligned with current knowledge. These experiences allow him to remain informed about new research findings, treatment strategies, and technologies in the field.
