Hi, I'm Dr. Olushola Bakare (she/her), and I'd love to work with you.
I know how exhausting it can feel to keep pushing through anxiety, depression, ADHD, or concerns around intimacy and sexuality — especially when you've already tried to "just push through it" and you're tired of being tired. If that's where you are, I want you to know there's a path forward, and I'd be honored to walk it with you.
My practice is exclusively for adults (18+), and I specialize in anxiety, depression, ADHD, and sexual concerns. Concretely, that means: if racing thoughts or constant worry are running your day, we'll use cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) to identify the thought patterns driving it and build practical tools to quiet them. If you're managing ADHD, we'll focus on sustainable systems and self-compassion instead of shame. If depression has you feeling stuck or numb, narrative therapy helps us separate you from the problem so you can reconnect with your strengths and your story. If big emotions feel unmanageable, dialectical behavior therapy (DBT) gives you concrete skills for regulating them. And when you already know what you want but can't see how to get there, solution-focused therapy keeps us oriented toward real, achievable change rather than dwelling on what's wrong. If sexual concerns are part of what's weighing on you, this is a space where you can talk about that openly and without judgment.
Here's what working together looks like: in our first session, we'll talk through what brought you in, and from there we'll build a treatment plan together — one that reflects your goals, not a generic template. You'll leave sessions with practical steps to try, and we'll check in on what's working as we go. This isn't therapy done to you; it's therapy done with you, built around the strengths you already have.
If any of this sounds like what you've been looking for, I'd welcome the chance to work with you.
