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.

Feeling overwhelmed, stuck, or not like yourself lately can be exhausting, and it’s hard to sort through everything on your own. I work with adults who are managing stress, anxiety, low mood, and life transitions such as changes in work, family, or relationships. Together, we’ll slow things down, make sense of what you’re experiencing, and help you build practical tools so you can feel more grounded, hopeful, and in control of your next steps.

Therapist

I'm a Licensed Professional Counselor who believes therapy should be a place where you feel safe, understood, and empowered to grow. I work with adults navigating anxiety, trauma, relationship challenges, life transitions, burnout, and identity exploration. Many of my clients are professionals, caregivers, and helpers who spend so much time supporting others that they forget to care for themselves. I provide sex-positive, kink-affirming, LGBTQIA+-affirming therapy and affirming care for people in consensually nonmonogamous (CNM) relationships, creating a space where you can show up as your authentic self.

Happy patient looking away

Find the right LGBTQ-friendly therapy provider for you

Headway makes it easier to connect with affirming therapists who understand your identity — from finding the right therapist, to understanding costs, to scheduling with ease.

Factors to Consider When Choosing an LGBTQIA Therapist in Savannah

Finding LGBTQIA+ therapists in Savannah starts with identifying care that is affirming, specific, and aligned with what you want to address. LGBTQIA+ counseling in Savannah may support people exploring identity, gender identity, relationships, family dynamics, anxiety, depression, or stress related to life changes. As you compare therapists, look for profiles that mention affirmative therapy, WPATH training, gender-diverse experience, or work with LGBTQIA+ communities. These signals can help you find a therapist whose listed experience matches your needs.

In a smaller city like Savannah, the number of local queer affirming therapy options may be more limited than in larger metro areas. Virtual appointments can expand your search while keeping in-person care available when it fits your schedule and preferences. Beyond specialty, consider appointment availability, whether the therapist offers a free phone consultation, and whether their background or approach feels relevant to you. Reading therapist bios can show how they describe their work with LGBTQIA+ populations, their communication style, and what to expect in a first session.

Therapy in Savannah can be a significant expense without insurance, and using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs. Headway helps you find LGBTQ friendly therapists in Savannah, GA who are accepting new patients, take your insurance, and offer clear cost estimates before you book. You can compare therapists, review bios, choose virtual or in-person care, and book directly when you’re ready.
