Yewande Noah, Nurse Practitioner
Yewande Noah, PMHNP, supports children, teens, and young adults across California in achieving emotional balance and mental wellness through thoughtful, evidence-based psychiatric care. At LifeStance Health, she offers medication management to individuals from infancy through early adulthood, collaborating closely with families and caregivers to ensure developmentally appropriate and compassionate treatment. Her practice emphasizes building trust with young patients and empowering them to better understand their mental health needs.
Yewande has particular expertise in child and adolescent psychiatry and is passionate about helping young people manage challenges related to ADHD, anxiety, and mood disorders such as depression and bipolar disorder. She also treats conditions such as obsessive-compulsive disorder, PTSD, and psychosis. Her clinical approach is both structured and nurturing, supporting children and teens who may be struggling in school, navigating family changes, or coping with trauma. Through a combination of medication management and mindfulness strategies, she tailors care to meet the unique needs of each patient, while involving families in the journey toward healing.
She is especially dedicated to working with children and adolescents in the foster care system, those on the autism spectrum, and individuals who have experienced head injuries or significant life disruptions. Yewande also provides affirming, inclusive care for LGBTQ+ youth and has experience supporting first responders and their families. Her practice incorporates additional services to meet the diverse needs of the communities she serves.
Outside of her clinical work, Yewande is an avid traveler and audiobook enthusiast who enjoys cooking, solving sudoku puzzles, and discovering new music. She finds joy in wordplay at events like the Bay Area Pun Off and is currently learning to swim, always embracing curiosity and growth—values she brings into her practice.
