Dr. Aderonke Oshibajo
Psychiatric Mental Health NP
Virtual & in-person • 13 mi away • Rolling Mdws, IL
Welcome! I have 30 years of experience supporting people through a variety of life challenges. I am a trauma-informed therapist and my specialties include helping with anxiety, trauma, stress management, life transitions, and depression. My deep, intuitive understanding includes lived experience, and clinical wisdom that only comes with decades of practice and life.
My approach to therapy includes Somatic-Focused therapy, Cognitive-Behavioral therapy, Compassion-Focused therapy, Polyvagal-informed, and Psychodynamic therapy. I am also a Certified Yoga Therapist so I am able to integrate the ancient tools of yoga into my work with you if you are interested; breath-based gentle movement, meditation, visualization, etc. The breath is the gateway to the central nervous system--calming and strengthening it is the key to reducing anxiety and healing trauma. This broad approach allows me to meet you where you are at while holding a safe, supportive space for you.
Working with others on their healing journey is my life's passion. We will start by building a strong, supportive relationship; warmth, compassion, and respect are at the very heart of my work. Our sessions will be tailored to fit your specific needs. I understand that seeking help can be difficult and it takes courage to take that first step. I will be honored to join you on your healing journey towards a more joyful life.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Mental Health Therapist in Elgin, IL
Searching for therapists in Elgin starts with finding someone whose training matches what you want support with. Therapists may focus on concerns like anxiety, depression, grief, relationship challenges, work stress, trauma, or life transitions. As you compare options, look for specialties, therapy styles, and experience that align with your needs. A therapist’s profile can also help you understand their approach, what sessions may look like, and whether their style feels like a fit.
In a smaller city like Elgin, the number of nearby in-person therapy options may be more limited than in larger parts of the Chicago area. Virtual therapy can expand your search while still letting you work with a therapist licensed in Illinois. When reviewing therapists, consider appointment availability, whether they are accepting new patients, and whether they offer a free phone consultation. Reading bios before booking can help you compare communication style, focus areas, and session format in one place.
Therapy in Elgin can be a significant investment without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs and see your estimated price before you book. Headway helps you find licensed therapists who match your preferences, lets you check insurance coverage for your plan, and offers virtual or in-person appointments. You can browse profiles, compare availability, and book directly when you’re ready.
