I am a licensed psychologist in both Nigeria and the United Kingdom, with 10 years of professional experience. I have worked with clients experiencing stress, anxiety, depression, trauma, abuse, low self-esteem, and confidence issues, as well as relationship and marital difficulties. I also have experience supporting couples who are struggling in their relationships.
My approach is grounded in respect, sensitivity, and compassion. I believe in tailoring each conversation and treatment plan to your unique needs and circumstances. Seeking support takes courage, and choosing to work towards a more fulfilling and meaningful life is an important first step.

Online counseling, sometimes called teletherapy, refers to talk therapy delivered remotely through digital platforms, such as video calls, phone calls, or chat. It can be a great option for people who face barriers to traditional face-to-face therapy, such as those living in remote areas, individuals with mobility issues, or people with busy schedules that make it difficult to attend in-person sessions.
Teletherapy also offers greater convenience and flexibility, allowing clients to access care from the comfort of their homes. Research shows that the treatment outcomes with online counseling are often just as effective as with traditional therapy, providing a viable alternative for individuals seeking mental health support.
