About Esther

Dr. Ogunjimi also brings experience with attachment issues, abandonment, codependency, communication problems, blended family concerns, and aging-related stress. She explains concepts plainly and uses real-world examples so skills translate to daily life.

How her approaches translate to online therapy
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice painful thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them, then choose actions that match their values. It is useful for chronic stress, anxiety, and anger that hold people back from living as they want. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and trying different behaviors to change mood and reactions; it is often used for anxiety, depression, and anger management. Client-Centered Therapy centers the client's perspective and priorities, offering reflective listening and support while people decide what changes to make.Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will talk with each person about goals, preferences, and what has or hasn't helped before, then suggest approaches to try. That decision remains a collaborative process and can be adjusted over time.
Confirm the session formats available before booking so you know how meetings will take place. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, reduce travel time, and allow follow-up conversations or skill practice between sessions. For some people, phone check-ins or shorter online meetings can be simpler on a workday, while others prefer a longer session to focus on emotional processing. Discuss format and scheduling when you complete the matching questionnaire and arrange your first appointment.
