Something brought you here — and that matters. Reaching out for support takes self-awareness and courage, and it's often the first real step toward change.

I'm a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist and Certified Employee Assistance Professional with more than 20 years of experience helping children, teens, and adults move through some of life's most challenging moments. Over two decades, I've learned one consistent truth: when people learn to recognize their own strengths, they're far better equipped to overcome what's holding them back.

My approach is direct but warm — I meet you where you are, not where I think you should be.

I was born and raised in one of Nigeria’s vibrant and bustling cities, where I learned the values of community, resilience, and compassion from an early age. Inspired by a deep desire to make a difference in people’s lives, I pursued my education in health care. This journey has been a blessing and a privilege, allowing me to work in health care and provide care for the people I love and serve.

My family and I have built a home filled with love and laughter. They bring joy and inspiration to my life every day. I'm excited to support my clients in bringing that same love and joy and laughter back into their own lives.

For over 10 years, I have dedicated my practice to supporting children, teenagers, and their families through life's ups and downs. Whether your child is facing a specifically challenging or traumatic season, or simply trying to navigate the everyday stressors of growing up, my goal is to provide them with concrete, healthy coping skills to help them thrive.

I believe that true healing and growth happen within the context of the family. Because of this, a vital part of my work involves partnering directly with parents. I am passionate about helping you support your child, encouraging healthy communication, and establish clear, loving boundaries. Together, we can create a supportive home environment that allows your child to build resilience, find their voice, and truly be the best they can be.

I believe everyone deserves a safe, supportive place to talk through life’s challenges. For the past 19 years, I have worked with individuals and families navigating difficult moments, helping them find clarity, healing, and renewed strength.

Find the right therapist for you

Headway makes it easy to find support for your mental health — from finding the right provider, to understanding costs, to scheduling with ease.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Mental Health Therapist in Buford, GA

Searching for therapists in Buford starts with knowing what kind of support fits your needs. Some people look for help with anxiety, depression, stress, grief, relationship challenges, or major life changes. Others search for buford counseling, marriage counseling in Buford, GA, or couples counseling in Buford, GA. As you compare therapists, look for listed specialties, therapy approaches, and experience that match what you want to work on. A therapist’s bio can also show how they structure sessions, communicate, and support people with concerns like yours.

In a smaller city like Buford, local therapist availability may vary by schedule, specialty, and office location. Virtual therapy can expand your options while still connecting you with a therapist licensed in Georgia. You may want to compare in-person and virtual appointments based on your calendar, privacy needs, and preference for meeting face to face. Before booking, review whether each therapist is accepting new patients, offers appointment times that fit your schedule, and provides a free phone consultation. Reading profiles closely can help you understand each therapist’s approach before you choose.

Therapy in Buford can be a significant expense without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs and get a clearer estimate before care begins. Headway helps you search for therapists who match your preferences, verify your insurance, and see estimated out-of-pocket costs before booking. You can browse Buford counselors, review detailed bios, and book directly when you’re ready.

If you're experiencing or worried about violence, threats, or coercion in your relationship, couples therapy isn't usually the right starting point — individual support is safer. The National Domestic Violence Hotline (1-800-799-7233, or text START to 88788\) can help you think through next steps.
