Getting to know Olaniyi Oyedele

Hi there, I'm Olaniyi! My name is David Oyedele, and I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) with a Master?s in Social Work from Howard University. I am passionate about providing guidance and support to all my clients through their challenging situations. If given the opportunity, I look forward to working with you toward your desired goals. My approach I believe in meeting my clients where they are and tailoring the approach to their needs. I mostly use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Supportive Therapy to help clients gain insight into the challenges they are facing, while also providing support as they take crucial but necessary steps toward their desired goals. My focus I have been fortunate to work with clients between the ages of 3 and 71. My approach has been effective in helping early adulthood, midlife, and mature adulthood clients as they deal with depression, anxiety, and stress. I help them identify and develop positive coping skills needed to achieve their goals. My communication style My communication style is grounded in meeting clients where they are, creating an atmosphere of warmth and positive regard where they can feel free and relaxed to share their thoughts without judgment. I communicate to my clients that I am there in each session to actively listen and help foster solutions to their challenges. My journey to mental healthcare My journey to becoming a therapist was interesting. A therapist friend kept telling me I would be a good therapist, so I decided to take a deeper look into it. Since becoming a therapist, I have enjoyed what I do and find priceless satisfaction whenever my clients achieve goals that once seemed impossible. My goals for you I put the client in the driver?s seat when it comes to goal setting. I am there to provide support and suggestions. I truly believe that clients commit to goals they have actively participated in creating, as this is the reason they sought therapy in the first place.
