About Ajibola
Ajibola Obajimi is a licensed clinical professional counselor in Illinois with four years of experience. He helps people facing stress, anxiety, depression, grief, anger, relationship struggles, and addiction. He meets clients in a steady, respectful way and focuses on their strengths as a starting point.
Ajibola treats trauma and abuse and supports people working through post-traumatic stress and paranoia. He also works with process addictions such as gambling, exercise, and pornography, and with drug and alcohol addiction.
How Ajibola works
He aims to break big problems into smaller steps that feel manageable. His style centers on listening first, then building on what each person already knows about themselves. He uses conversational methods that help people notice patterns, test small changes, and stay motivated.
Sessions tend to be practical and goal-oriented while keeping space for the story behind the symptoms. Ajibola draws on Client-Centered Therapy to create a nonjudgmental setting and on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to address unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. He also uses Motivational Interviewing to support readiness for change and Internal Family Systems ideas to understand inner parts and conflicts.
He offers help in English and Yoruba and accepts international clients. People interested in starting begin with a short matching questionnaire and then schedule sessions to fit their needs.

Online support options
Approaches and online options that fit your life
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on hearing your experience without judgment and following your lead to set goals and pace. This approach helps people feel understood and builds a stronger sense of their own strengths and choices. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at how thoughts, feelings, and actions connect and uses practical exercises to shift unhelpful patterns, which can help with anxiety, depression, and mood concerns.Finding the right approach is part of the work. Ajibola aims to collaborate about methods that match your goals and preferences. He will talk with you about what you want to change, try approaches together, and adjust the plan as progress is made.
Online therapy offers flexibility through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video sessions allow face-to-face conversation, phone calls can work when bandwidth is limited, live chat can be a quick check-in, and messaging supports ongoing reflection between sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, family responsibilities, or travel while still working toward clear goals.
