About Olufemi
Olufemi Olugbemiro is an Ohio Licensed Independent Social Worker (LISW) with four years of clinical experience. He works with people facing stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, low self-esteem, depression, and major life changes. Olufemi also pays attention to guilt and shame as part of his work with clients.
He keeps sessions straightforward and collaborative. Conversations focus on the concrete problems you bring in, not abstract lists of techniques. He listens for patterns that keep you stuck and helps identify small, manageable shifts to try between meetings.
Olufemi draws on evidence-based therapeutic techniques. He helps people develop new ways to respond to hard memories, manage overwhelming feelings, and handle conflict more clearly. Sessions can include practical skills for coping and steady pacing through difficult topics.
He has worked with a wide range of concerns that often overlap, such as communication problems, codependency, addiction, immigration issues, fatherhood challenges, and midlife transitions. He will notice how these themes connect to feelings of guilt or shame and address them as part of broader goals.

How therapeutic approaches are used in online sessions
Olufemi uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on practical change. One approach involves working with thoughts and behaviors to reduce anxiety and depressive patterns by practicing new responses in everyday situations. Another approach addresses trauma and abuse by pacing difficult memories and teaching grounding and emotion-regulation skills to manage intensity without becoming overwhelmed.Finding the right approach is part of the work. He treats this as a collaborative process where client goals, concerns, and preferences guide which techniques are used. Together they check what helps and adjust the plan as needed rather than sticking to a single method.
Session formats are not specified in the biography, so confirm current options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when time is tight, or remove travel time so sessions are more convenient. Licensed professionals can use online meetings to practice skills between sessions, review progress, and plan concrete steps that fit everyday life.
