“She’s the best therapist I’ve ever worked with. She’s insightful and deftly bobs & weaves through the minefields of trauma and miscommunication as she helps you reflect and understand your truest self.
She’s also direct but in a perfectly timed or phrased way that doesn’t leave you feeling invalidated. She’s a wonderful therapist.”

“I cannot say enough wonderful things about our therapist, Dr. Christiana Awosan. She has been an absolute gift in our lives for the past four years. As both my individual therapist and our marriage therapist, she has supported us through every season with empathy, wisdom, and genuine care. Her ability to hold space with compassion while also challenging us to grow is unmatched. She listens deeply, asks the right questions, and brings such a calming, grounding presence into every session. In our marriage work, she has helped us communicate more honestly, love more intentionally, and navigate hard conversations with grace. Individually, she has helped me reconnect with myself, work through past wounds, and show up more fully in my life and relationships. We truly love her and feel incredibly lucky to have found someone who brings such heart and skill to her practice. She’s not just our therapist — she’s a foundational part of our healing and growth.
She’s simply the best.”

Getting to know Dr. Christiana Awosan
The provider is a “Marriage & Family Therapist" and their license number is 37FI00180900.
Christiana earned her doctorate in Couple & Family Therapy from Drexel University and is a licensed Marriage & Family Therapy Clinical Fellow and an AAMFT Clinical Approved Supervisor. She has contributed to psychological, behavioral, and psychophysiological research at Syracuse University and contributed to over a dozen peer-reviewed publications and presentations on topics related to racial trauma and therapy solutions for Black couples and families. Christiana is currently an Associate Professor in the Marriage & Family Therapy Program at Iona University. She founded Ibisanmi Relational Health in 2018 in response to the needs of Black and Brown communities.
What should a new client know about working with you?
“I envisioned a mental health private practice like Ibisanmi Relational Health – a practice committed to the mental, emotional, and relational healing of Black people/POC - since my undergraduate years at Syracuse University. I’m excited to work with the Ibisanmi Relational Health team to provide a healing space for our communities. This work allows me to help and empower individuals, couples, and families to mend and strengthen their relationships with themselves and others. I consider my work as a family therapist a calling. It is a great honor to be a holder of hope and a healer of relationships.”
What is your typical process for working with clients?
“You can expect therapy with me to be collaborative and grounded in Multicultural Relational Perspective – an approach that addresses the hidden wounds of marginalization, oppression, and stigma. I also integrate methods and interventions that emphasize the role of family and intimate relationships in psychological health, disrupt unhealthy communication and behavioral patterns, as well work toward your healing and fulfilling life.”
