About Abisola

Abisola Adepegba is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor and a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor with 12 years of experience. She is licensed as an LMHC in Hawaii and as an LCPC in Maryland, and also holds an LPC in Virginia. She helps people with relationship struggles, family conflict, grief and loss, parenting challenges, and anger-related concerns.

Her work is practical and conversational. Sessions focus on what is happening now and what changes feel doable. She listens for patterns that keep problems repeating, then works with clients to try different ways of responding. Expect straightforward talk and concrete steps you can practice between sessions.

Abisola also supports people facing stress, anxiety, depression, bipolar concerns, and career or self-esteem difficulties. She notes attention-related issues, trauma and abuse, and intimacy questions among the areas she addresses. Additional focus areas include adoption and foster care, attachment concerns, blended family dynamics, and caregiver stress.

She frames therapy as a cooperative process rather than a one-size-fits-all program. Treatment plans are built from client goals and adjusted as progress is tracked. This means trying interventions, noticing what helps, and shifting tactics when needed.

Sessions are conducted in English and organized around the client’s practical needs. For people who want clearer boundaries, better communication, or calmer reactions, sessions aim to translate insight into everyday changes.

How sessions work

How evidence-based techniques translate to online work

Abisola uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on practical change. One common approach is behavioral work that identifies unhelpful patterns and tests new responses in daily life; this helps with anger, stress, and relationship reactions. Another is problem-focused talk that breaks larger issues into manageable steps, useful for parenting challenges, grief, and career stress.

Finding the right approach is collaborative. The therapist and client review goals and try methods that fit the client’s needs and preferences. Plans are adjusted over time based on what actually helps, so the first few sessions are often about sampling techniques and deciding what to keep.

Confirm session formats before booking since the biography does not list specific online options. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy day, allow shorter check-ins when time is limited, and remove travel time. These practical benefits can help people practice new skills in their usual routines while working with a licensed professional to refine what works.
