  • Trauma and abuse
  • Blended family concerns

About Olufemi

Olufemi Olugbemiro is an Ohio LISW with four years of clinical experience supporting adults through stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, self-esteem concerns, depression, and coping with life changes. He speaks English, Hausa, and Yoruba. He lists blended family issues among his additional focus areas, and also addresses concerns such as communication problems, codependency, and divorce and separation.

Olufemi uses straightforward conversation to help people sort out what matters most to them. Sessions focus on practical steps and honest reflection. He emphasizes collaboration so clients help set goals and test small changes between meetings.

He draws on evidence-based therapeutic techniques to address trauma, low mood, and anxiety, and adapts those methods to real day-to-day problems. That often means learning new ways to manage stress, shifting unhelpful thinking, and practicing different interaction patterns at home.

When blended household dynamics are part of the problem, he helps people clarify boundaries, manage loyalty conflicts, and improve communication with partners and co-parents. He also works with people facing addiction, fatherhood questions, immigration-related stress, and feelings of isolation.

People can expect clear explanations of proposed approaches and simple tasks to try between sessions. The payment model varies with location and uses a subscription that can be canceled at any time. To begin, a short matching questionnaire is completed and a first session is scheduled.

Approaches used and what online sessions involve

Olufemi works with evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on changing patterns that keep problems going. One common approach he uses helps people identify and shift unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns to reduce anxiety and depression. This method is practical and aims to give clear skills to use between sessions.

He also applies trauma-informed strategies to help people process past hurts at a pace that feels manageable. That typically includes grounding skills, pacing of material, and building ways to cope with intense memories or feelings while addressing how those experiences affect current relationships.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. He frames this as a collaborative process and will help clients choose methods that fit their goals and day-to-day life. Together they review what’s helping or not and adjust the plan over time.

If you plan to meet online, confirm the current session options before booking. The profile does not list specific session formats, so checking available formats is recommended. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time so therapy can be scheduled around family or work commitments.
