About Esther
She uses a mix of therapy methods to match each person’s needs. That can mean learning new skills for managing strong emotions, practicing ways to change unhelpful thoughts, or focusing on what matters most in life. Sessions are shaped to address stress, anxiety, relationship concerns, anger, low self-esteem, and changes like grief or career transitions.
Esther has substantial experience working with people affected by childhood trauma and abuse, attachment struggles, intimacy-related issues, and family-of-origin problems. She also helps with parenting stress, caregiver strain, compassion fatigue, and challenges related to attention differences and eating concerns. Her background includes both short-term problem solving and longer-term work.
Her style is respectful and compassionate. She tailors conversations and treatment plans to fit each person’s situation. Therapy often combines skill-building, reflective work, and concrete steps clients can try between sessions.
Clients can expect a collaborative relationship where goals are defined together. She invites people to take the first step and offers steady support while they make changes and learn new ways of coping.
Therapeutic approaches you can use online
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people clarify what matters to them and take small steps toward those values while accepting hard emotions. It is useful for anxiety, life changes, and feeling stuck. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and trying new behaviors to change mood and stress. It can help with anxiety, depression, and problem solving. Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) centers on understanding emotions and how they shape relationships and intimacy; it aims to increase emotional awareness and connection.Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to decide which methods fit their goals and preferences. That may mean combining techniques, trying one approach for a few sessions, and adjusting as needed.
The biography does not specify session formats, so confirm current online options before booking. In general, online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life, save travel time, and allow for shorter check-ins when needed. It can also make it simpler to access English or Yoruba-speaking care from outside the local area. The therapist can discuss how sessions will be arranged and what will work best for daily routines and goals.
