Therapeutic Style: I view counseling as a collaborative relationship, and I work with students to achieve their goals by providing a safe and non-judgmental space where they can be their authentic selves and explore their mental health concerns. Although my therapeutic approach is grounded in person-centered and cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), I also draw from other relational approaches to counseling. I strive to meet students where they are and tailor my approach based on the needs of students.
Professional Interests: My areas of professional interest include anxiety, depression, trauma, interpersonal relationships, cultural adjustment and transition, identity development, Black, Indigenous and People of Color (BIPOC), immigrant and international student populations. Before joining Syracuse University, I worked in community mental health providing services to children and youth who experience sexual violence, abuse and neglect. I also completed my internship at East Tennessee State University Counseling Center, where I co-facilitated a BIPOC support group for students on campus.
Educational Background: I hold a bachelor’s degree in psychology from the University of Ibadan, Nigeria, and completed a master’s degree in mental health counseling at East Tennessee State University.
