Hello! I am Licensed Professional Counselor in the state of Georgia. I’m looking forward to our work together. It’s an incredible joy and honor to walk with you and to be a guide on the healing journey you have set out on. Working together there is a lot of transformation that can happen in your life. I have effectively helped many people and have specialized training to do so. Growth can be difficult and sometimes things get worse before they get better. The outcome of therapy is largely dependent on your willingness and commitment to the process.
Life can present many challenges including years of trauma, painful grief, anxiety, depression, and years of addictions. Transitions such as losing a career, lifestyle change, loss of a friend or family member or an identity crisis are also challenges that one can experience in life. There is hope!
Through the use of a Dialectic Behavioral Therapy approach we can explore the thoughts, emotions, and behaviors related to various situations and learn to alter them when needed for the better. Through this process it is possible to learn skills to use to better manage behaviors. While my primary theoretical orientations are Dialectic Behavioral Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Solution Focused Therapy, I recognize that each client is unique. I therefore, tailor counseling needs to each individual. In addition, should clients desire faith-based counseling, I do incorporate Christian related principles. Help is only a message away!
Additional areas of focus: Addictions, Relationship issues, Family conflicts, Grief, Intimacy-related issues, Parenting issues, Anger management, Career difficulties, Coping with life changes, Coaching, Compassion fatigue
These quotes represent just a few of the many positive reviews that we have received for Adeola Adefowoju. We don't pay anyone to provide their review and they are all made voluntarily. Some people's experience receiving therapy with BetterHelp might be different.
Amazing caring and patient counselor

In the short 4 weeks i have started counseling for the first time with Adeola, i have learned so much about coping with my Anxiety, Depression and Self esteem. I was very lucky to be able to connect with her and develop a rapport that allowed me to be honest about where i am at with my mental health. Even though the time was short i have so much hope for the future and have skills to take on to my journey. Thank you for your help , support and guiding me through my mental health journey.

I have been working with Adeola for a few months and came to her feeling like I couldn’t even face my problems, and I was out of hope. Within a few weeks it was clear that I could and with her endless patience and encouragement I feel a lot more confident about being able to take positive actions to slowly improve my life. She is real, authentic and listens to me no matter how many times I feel like I need to work through something! I always feel like she is able to be calm and kind even when I am feeling angry or upset about my past trauma and have difficult emotions. She has given me hope for the future and the ability to trust in myself to create a future, which is something I couldn’t have done without her. I will forever be grateful to her for this gift of new hope she has given me!

Adeola has been great. She always makes me feel heard and validated, but also gives good counsel on how to improve myself or better manage my emotional reactions. She has also been very understanding when I need to reschedule.

This is the third time I come back for therapy with Adeola, and I still can’t recommend her enough. She puts her soul into her work and it really shines through. She has given me amazing tools to manage my anxiety, tools that I will keep for life. I always feels happier and lighter after our sessions and I am very grateful. Thank you Adeola :)

Although my time with Adeola was short, it felt like I was receiving just what I needed. I never knew how scared I was in sharing, but having someone who is supportive and accepting as Adeola made me feel better. There were times when I questioned what she was saying about what I should do and how I should cope with certain things, but she would always clarify. I loved being able to write in my journal and her actually reading them and asking me questions pertaining to them. The worksheets I had done with her helped and I am overall satisfied with how Adeola has helped me.
