Kemi Adelakun
I am a Licensed Certified Social Worker Clinical (LCSW-C) based in Maryland. I received my Masters from the University of New England and have been practicing in the Mental Health field for the past 6 years. I have developed therapeutic alliances with individuals by serving and leading with empathy and compassion, utilizing active listening skills and a holistic approach with a non-judgmental attitude. My practice is guided by cultural sensitivity and trust-building. I value the importance of human relationships, the dignity and worth of each individual, service, and competence. I help individuals with managing depression, anxiety, trauma, and self-esteem building.
What can clients expect to take away from sessions with you?
In our first session together, we will start with brief introductions and a brief discussion related to our expectations of this therapeutic journey. We will then dive into the specific challenges you're facing. This will help me create a tailored plan for us to work through in follow-up sessions.
Explain to clients what areas you feel are your biggest strengths.
My ability to develop a strong therapeutic alliance with clients, good listening skills, active listening skills, empathy, and my high level of the self awareness allows me to refer my clients to other mental health therapists who may be better able to help the client.
