About Ajibola
Ajibola Obajimi is an Illinois Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor (LCPC) with four years of professional experience. He helps people who are dealing with stress, anxiety, relationship issues, trauma and abuse, grief, anger, addictions, low self-esteem, depression, and big life changes. Sessions are offered in English and Yoruba and he accepts international clients.
He approaches therapy believing the client knows their own story and brings strengths to the work. That means conversations focus on the person’s goals and practical steps they can try between sessions. He uses methods that encourage honest reflection and small, doable changes in daily life.
Ajibola integrates client-centered work with cognitive behavioral techniques and motivational interviewing. He also draws on Internal Family Systems to help people notice different inner parts that influence emotions and behavior. These methods are used to address problems like persistent anger, addictive patterns, and trauma reactions.
In a typical session he will listen to what matters most and then suggest strategies that fit the client’s situation. Examples include reframing unhelpful thoughts, practicing new responses to triggers, and strengthening motivation to change addictive behaviors. The focus is on clear, practical steps rather than lengthy theory.
People who start with him complete a brief matching questionnaire and then schedule a first session. Cost varies by location and sessions are billed through a subscription that can be canceled at any time.

How his approaches translate to online sessions
Ajibola uses client-centered therapy to focus on what the client identifies as most important. That approach involves listening closely and helping the client name goals and decide on next steps. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is used to spot unhelpful thought patterns and try practical exercises that change reactions and behavior. Motivational Interviewing helps when people feel stuck or ambivalent about change by strengthening personal reasons to move forward.Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. He will collaborate with the client to choose techniques that match their needs, goals, and preferences. That might mean emphasizing CBT skills for managing anger, or using motivational interviewing to address addictive behaviors while bringing in Internal Family Systems ideas when internal conflicts are a problem.

Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy schedule, allow for brief check-ins when time is limited, and reduce travel time. It can also allow people to use simpler setups like phone calls when bandwidth is an issue. The therapist and client will discuss what works best for practical needs and goals.
