I'm going to go out on a limb and guess that something isn't OK right now. That something might be new, or it might have been around a long time. You might be able to describe it perfectly, or you might just feel off without knowing why. Either way — you're here, and that's the only thing that matters right now. I start from wherever you are. No assumptions, no judgments, no one-size-fits-all approach. Just a genuine desire to understand you — what's brought you here, what you're carrying, and what you're hoping for. Therapy with me — whether you're coming alone or with a partner — tends to be honest and occasionally even a little lighthearted. The human experience isn't black and white, and neither is the work we'll do together. What stays consistent is that you'll have a space that belongs to you, where nothing you say or feel changes how I show up for you. For couples, that space belongs to both of you equally. I don't take sides. What I do is help you see the pattern you're both caught in — because most of the time it's the cycle doing the damage, not each other. When that shifts, something else becomes possible. No matter what it is you are navigating — depression, relationships, identity, or the gap between how you show up and how you actually feel inside — you don't have to have it figured out to reach out.

My name is Dr. Olushola Bakare, and my work centers on helping people recognize the strengths they already carry. Just as a fish is built to swim and a bird to fly, I believe each of us has our own natural way of moving through life, and my role is to help you find and lean into yours. I work with adults and older adults who are ready to feel more grounded, confident, and understood, in a space that is safe, warm, and free of judgment. To help make sure we are the right fit from the start, I want to be upfront that my practice does not currently include couples counseling, medication management, or completing disability, FMLA, or legal paperwork. I work with adults 18 years and older. If any of these are part of what you are looking for, I am happy to help you find a provider whose practice is built around that support.

Motherhood will change everything you thought you knew about yourself. I'm Amanda, a licensed mental health counselor specializing in matrescence, the identity work of becoming a mother. I work with women in pregnancy, postpartum, and the years that follow, when the woman who walked in no longer fits and you are not quite sure who is emerging. My clients are often high-functioning on the outside and quietly exhausted on the inside. They are tired of surface-level coping skills and ready to do the deeper work. I bring years of clinical experience, a background in executive healthcare leadership, and specialized training in perinatal mental health and EMDR. I also provide affirming, safe care for members of the gender expansive community. If you are willing to be honest, even when it is uncomfortable, we will do really good work together.

Depending upon your provider's specialty, you may also discuss the methods the therapist will use.
