Getting to know Lois Obeng

I am a licensed social worker dedicated to supporting individuals navigating anxiety, depression, life transitions, and everyday stressors. I know that reaching out for help can feel vulnerable, and I strive to create a space where clients feel welcomed with warmth, compassion, and respect. My goal is to help clients feel grounded, supported, and empowered as they move through their healing journey. My approach is collaborative, strengths-based, and culturally attuned. I believe each person brings valuable insight, resilience, and lived experience into therapy, and I work alongside clients to build on those strengths. Together, we move at a steady and manageable pace, tailoring treatment to each client’s needs, values, and goals.

What should a new client know about working with you?

New clients can expect a supportive, compassionate, and nonjudgmental space where they feel safe being themselves. I understand that starting therapy can bring up uncertainty, and I aim to meet each client with care and respect from the very beginning. Therapy with me is collaborative and individualized. I take time to understand what you’re going through, what matters most to you, and what you hope to gain from therapy. Whether you’re experiencing overwhelming emotions, adjusting to change, or looking for more balance and wellbeing, we will work together to build insight, practical coping tools, and lasting growth.

What is your typical process for working with clients?

My process begins with building a strong foundation of trust, comfort, and understanding. In the first session(s), we’ll spend time exploring what has brought you to therapy, identifying your current stressors, and discussing what you would like to work toward. From there, we collaborate to create goals that feel realistic and meaningful to you. I take a strengths-based approach, helping clients recognize resilience and patterns that may be contributing to distress while developing tools to support emotional regulation, confidence, and greater stability. I tailor therapy to each client’s pace and needs, and we regularly check in to make sure the work continues to feel supportive and aligned with your goals.
