About Abisola

Abisola Adepegba is a licensed counselor who helps people facing relationship strain, family conflict, grief, parenting challenges, stress, and anxiety. She works with concerns that range from mood difficulties like depression and bipolar symptoms to issues such as ADHD, trauma and abuse, and intimacy-related problems. Her style is direct and compassionate, and she focuses on practical steps people can use day to day.

With 12 years of experience, Abisola adapts conversations and plans to each person’s situation. She keeps sessions focused on the problems you bring and on workable strategies for managing them. Expect clear guidance about coping skills, communication, and habit changes rather than abstract theory.

Abisola holds LMHC and LCPC credentials and practices in Maryland. She describes her work as respectful and sensitive, and she aims to create a space where people can speak honestly about loss, anger, low self-esteem, or career stress. She also supports those dealing with adoption and foster care issues, attachment concerns, and caregiver stress.

Practical concerns like body image, eating-related issues, and work burnout are part of her caseload. She also offers coaching-style support for people wanting more structure around goals and daily habits. She encourages small, steady changes that add up over time.

To begin working together she asks clients to complete a short questionnaire and schedule sessions based on availability. Sessions are conducted in English and she does not accept international clients at this time.

How therapeutic approaches and online work fit together

Abisola uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques focused on thoughts, habits, and everyday coping. One common approach she uses helps people notice unhelpful thinking patterns and practice new ways of responding to stress and anxiety. This kind of work is useful for worry, low mood, and patterns that keep repeating. Another emphasis is on habit-focused coaching that breaks larger goals into small daily steps and builds routines to support mental health and better functioning.

Finding the right method is a collaborative process. The therapist will listen to your goals and preferences and then try practical tools to see what fits. Sessions often mix talking, skill practice, and simple homework so progress can be measured in everyday life rather than only in session.

Confirm the current online session options before booking, as formats are not listed here. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule, avoid travel time, and have shorter check-ins when a full session isn't needed. It can also let people use video or phone choices that match their energy level and bandwidth so therapy fits into their day.
