Adisatu (Addie) Adeyemi , MD, LCPC

Adisatu (Addie) Adeyemi is a Maryland-licensed therapist with eight years of professional experience who helps people navigate emotional challenges and relationship strains. She works with individuals coping with stress and anxiety, managing family conflicts, and processing grief and loss, while also supporting improvements in motivation, self-esteem, and confidence.

As a licensed clinician holding the LCPC credential - Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor - Adeyemi centers her work on each person's strengths and lived knowledge. She approaches therapy with the view that people are experts in their own stories and brings that respect into collaborative care.

Adeyemi aims to make the decision to seek help feel meaningful rather than daunting, recognizing the courage involved in starting therapy. Her practice focuses on building on existing resources and fostering practical, attainable steps toward the changes clients seek, whether they are aiming to manage emotions more effectively, resolve family tensions, or regain motivation and self-assurance.

Client-Centered and CBT Approaches for Online Care

Client-centered therapy focuses on creating an accepting, nonjudgmental space where the therapist follows the client's lead, listens deeply, and helps the person draw on their own strengths to clarify goals and make decisions. This approach is useful for improving self-esteem, building motivation, and working through relationship and family concerns.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is a practical, skills-oriented approach that helps people identify unhelpful thought patterns and try different behavioral strategies. CBT can be especially helpful for managing anxiety, depression, stress, and coping with life changes by teaching tools for thinking and acting differently in challenging situations.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. Adeyemi works with clients to understand their needs, goals, and preferences and tailors the plan over time so the therapy method fits the person rather than forcing a single model.

Online therapy with video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging makes it easier to fit care into a busy life and to connect from home or other convenient locations. These options offer flexibility in scheduling, allow for different communication styles, and help maintain continuity of care even when in-person visits are difficult.
