I'm a licensed clinical social worker (LCSW) with years of experience walking alongside individuals and families through some of life's most tender and difficult chapters — aging, illness, caregiving, grief, and major life transitions. I've worked across hospital, hospice, palliative care, dementia care, and community settings, and that breadth has taught me that every person's story is deeply unique.

Therapy and the journey to self-exploration can be hard. Together, we can navigate your path toward improved mental health and emotional well-being. My approach is solution-focused, centered on the immediate obstacles you are facing. While how you got here matters, what you choose to do next can have an even greater impact. As a clinical social worker with experience across private practice, hospital social work, parenting education, and community care, I bring a broad range of experience to support us in working through challenges together.

Therapist

Virtual • North Carolina


Have you been feeling anxious, distant from the people closest to you, or weighed down by a loss you haven't found words for? Have you been longing for something deeper? If so, I'm very glad you're here. I'm Olatunde, a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist with six years of experience. I connect deeply with my clients and help them connect deeply with others. I work with individuals, couples, and families facing anxiety, depression, stress, grief, end-of-life concerns, and the strain that can build in relationships and family life. I focus on men's issues, anger, identity, and the pressure to hold everything together alone. I do this work by being my "solid self" with you and empowering you to be your solid self with me, empowering you to be your truest self. When you experience that in therapy, it can open the door to change outside of therapy, becoming who you were made to be and finding the deepest intimacy.

I know how isolating that can be. In our work together, my priority is helping you feel truly seen, heard, and understood in a safe, confidential space where you can show up exactly as you are.

I believe therapy should be a place where you don’t have to have it all together. Many of my clients are high-achieving professionals who are used to being the “strong one” for everyone else, but privately struggle with relationships, boundaries, confidence, or life transitions. I strive to create a warm, collaborative space where you can show up authentically, gain insight into patterns that no longer serve you, and build healthier relationships with yourself and others. I especially enjoy working with Black women and LGBTQ+ adults and strive to create an affirming, culturally responsive space where clients can show up fully as themselves.

Life has a way of changing us, sometimes in ways we never expected. My passion is helping people navigate those moments with compassion, clarity, and confidence.

As a Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor (LCMHC), I believe healing isn't about becoming someone new—it's about reconnecting with the person you've always been beneath the stress, pain, burnout, or life transitions.

Whether you're struggling with anxiety, depression, overwhelming stress, relationship challenges, grief, substance use recovery, or simply feeling stuck, I provide a supportive, judgment-free space where you can be yourself. You don't have to have all the answers before you walk through my door.

My clients often describe me as genuine, compassionate, easy to talk to, and someone who isn't afraid to bring a little humor into the healing process. I believe therapy can be both meaningful and approachable. Sometimes the most powerful moments happen after we've laughed together.

Above all, I want you to know this:

You don't have to navigate life's journey alone.
