Have you been feeling overwhelmed by your ever-growing to-do list? Between work, dishes, laundry, cooking, and cleaning, you're feeling overwhelmed and shut down, and that's not including kids or school demands. Time management is a constant battle; you procrastinate, lose track of time, and miss important deadlines. It feels impossible to stay on top of everything. Your brain feels scattered and you feel like you’re underachieving, despite your potential and the effort you're putting in.

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.

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 Therapist in Watkinsville

Finding the right therapist in Watkinsville starts with getting clear on what you're looking for. Consider the concerns you want to address — whether that's anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, trauma, or life transitions — and look for a licensed provider who specializes in those areas. Watkinsville is part of the broader Athens-Clarke and Oconee County community, so you may also have access to providers in nearby Athens who offer virtual sessions.

When evaluating a therapist, credentials matter. Look for licensed professionals such as LPCs, LCSWs, psychologists, or psychiatrists who are trained in evidence-based approaches like Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), EMDR, or Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT). Reading a provider's bio can help you understand their style and decide whether they're a good match. Many providers on Headway offer a free phone consultation so you can connect before booking your first session.

Therapy in the Watkinsville and Athens area can be costly without coverage, but using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to lower what you pay. On Headway, you can enter your insurance details to see an estimated session cost before you book — and your out-of-pocket cost may be as low as $0 per visit. Nationally, Headway partners with over 100 insurance plans, making it easier to find a provider who fits both your clinical needs and your budget.
