About Abisola

Abisola Adepegba is a licensed mental health counselor who helps people facing relationship troubles, family conflict, grief, parenting strain, and stress. She also supports people coping with anxiety, depression, bipolar concerns, trauma and abuse, intimacy issues, anger, low self-esteem, and work or career stress. She works with LGBT clients and those managing ADHD, compassion fatigue, or major life changes.

With 12 years of experience, she adapts conversations and plans to each person’s situation. Sessions focus on practical steps and clearer communication. She aims to be respectful and compassionate while helping clients move toward better day-to-day functioning.

Her background includes licensure as a Licensed Mental Health Counselor and as a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor in Maryland. Abisola has worked across settings that involved family and relationship concerns, grief work, and parenting support. She draws on evidence-based therapeutic techniques to guide sessions.

In therapy she will listen, reflect, and help people try new ways of handling conflict and emotion. Expect straightforward talk and collaboration on achievable goals. Progress is usually built through steady conversations and practice between sessions.

If you are looking for help sorting out commitment worries, attachment concerns, blended family challenges, or the effects of adoption and foster care, she offers direct support. To begin, follow the therapist directory’s Start Therapy process to match and schedule an initial session.

Approaches that guide online work

Abisola uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques focused on practical change and clearer communication. One common approach she relies on helps people identify unhelpful patterns in relationships and try new behavior choices; this is useful for communication problems, commitment worries, and intimacy issues. Another commonly used way of working focuses on coping skills for mood and anxiety symptom management, including grounding strategies, activity planning, and short goal-setting to reduce distress.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk with each person about their goals, preferences, and what has or hasn’t helped before. Together they decide which techniques to try and adjust them as needed over time.

If you are considering online sessions, confirm the specific session formats offered before booking. Many people find that remote work helps fit therapy into busy lives, makes it easier to keep regular appointments, and allows shorter check-ins when schedules are tight. Online meetings can reduce travel time and help people maintain continuity of care while they manage work, family, or other responsibilities.
