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 hold a Masters Degree in Social Work from the University of Tennessee and hold my clinical licensure in the state of North Carolina. I have spent much of my career serving those at end of life and also have experience assisting caregivers, those in transitional phases of life, and those who are bereaved. As a mother, I am invested in the wellness of all mothers and women and feel deep appreciation for the way mothers show up for countless others before themselves. I look forward to learning how I can walk alongside you in this journey.

I believe that most people have the answers within themselves to work through their own problems - my role is to help you unlock that inner wisdom. I have experience helping people who are struggling with anxiety and depression, or who are numbing out through substance use. My clients are often working through life transitions and other challenging situations, such as relationship issues, grief, or chronic pain. Perhaps you have not been handling your emotions very well. You may even feel hopeless, or unsure how to articulate what you are feeling. Therapy is a collaborative journey to a more healthy state of mind.
