Ajibola Obajimi

Ajibola Obajimi is a licensed clinical professional counselor in Illinois with four years of experience. He helps people who are struggling with stress, anxiety, depression, anger, grief, relationship concerns, and addictions. He speaks English and Yoruba and works with clients who bring multicultural concerns and complex life changes.

Ajibola approaches sessions with the belief that each person knows their story best. He uses Client-Centered Therapy to listen closely and create space for a person to be heard. He also draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to identify unhelpful thinking and build different habits.

Motivational Interviewing is part of his toolkit when someone needs support finding motivation for change. Internal Family Systems is used to notice different parts of a person’s inner life and how they relate to one another. These methods are adapted to the concerns a person brings, such as substance use, mood struggles, trauma, or relationship tensions.

Sessions focus on practical steps people can try between meetings. Ajibola emphasizes strengths, small experiments, and clear goals. He aims to make the work manageable and relevant to everyday life.

To get started, a person selects the Start Therapy button, completes a short matching questionnaire, and schedules according to the therapist’s availability. The subscription for sessions can be canceled at any time.

How his approaches work in online therapy

Ajibola uses Client-Centered Therapy to create a listening space where the client’s priorities guide each session. This approach focuses on understanding the person’s experience and responding without judgment, which can help when dealing with grief, relationship strain, or multicultural concerns.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, is another core method he uses. CBT helps identify patterns of thinking and behavior that maintain anxiety, low mood, or anger and then tests small behavioral changes to see what helps in daily life.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. He will collaborate with each client to choose methods that match their goals, needs, and preferences, and may combine techniques as those needs change over time.

If you are considering online sessions, confirm the current session options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule, offer shorter check-ins when needed, and allow conversations without travel. Discussing preferences early helps shape how sessions are scheduled and what methods are used so the work fits into everyday life.
