About Ajibola

Ajibola Harris is a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor who welcomes people dealing with stress, anxiety, grief, parenting questions, or changes in life. She goes by Abby and speaks English and Yoruba. She has 14 years of experience and holds LCPC and LPC credentials including NV LCPC CP5566-R and TX LPC 85851.

Abby works online with clients in Texas and beyond, and she aims to make sessions feel straightforward and practical.

Background and approach

Abby uses clear, direct conversation to help people feel less stuck. She focuses on what is happening now and on small steps that make daily life easier. In sessions she listens without judgement, notices patterns that cause pain, and suggests simple tools to try between meetings.

Her approach blends client-centered listening with cognitive behavioral tools and solution-focused ideas. That means she pays attention to each person’s story, helps reframe unhelpful thoughts, and looks for immediate, achievable goals. When trauma is part of the picture she uses trauma-informed methods to guide healing at a manageable pace.

She aims to build a respectful, dependable connection from the first meeting. Abby values cultural awareness and aims to meet each person where they are. Her background and methods are used to tailor conversations and plans to what the individual needs.

Sessions are offered through online formats that fit busy schedules. Payment and scheduling follow a subscription model that can be adjusted as needed.

Approaches for online family and parenting concerns

Client-centered therapy focuses on listening and understanding each person without judgment. It helps people feel heard and encourages self-directed change by reflecting back what matters to them.

Cognitive behavioral therapy, or CBT, looks at the link between thoughts, feelings, and actions. It offers concrete techniques to reduce anxiety, manage mood swings, and change unhelpful habits in daily life.

Solution-focused therapy concentrates on small, practical steps and clear short-term goals. It is useful when someone wants fast, doable changes for parenting, relationships, or coping with stress.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with clients to choose methods that match their needs, goals, and preferences. Together they can adjust methods as progress is made.

Online sessions are offered by licensed professionals using video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. These options make it easier to schedule appointments around family demands, work, and travel. The variety of formats also allows people to continue work between meetings and to pick the style that feels most comfortable.

Client-Centered Therapy

The direction comes from you rather than from a set programme. The therapist offers a warm, non-judgemental space to think out loud and work at your own pace. Online, this rests on the relationship rather than on being in the same room.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)

CBT looks at the link between what you think, how you feel, and what you do. You work on noticing unhelpful patterns and practising steadier responses. It suits online sessions well, because much of the work happens between appointments and can be talked through from anywhere.

Solution-Focused Therapy

Rather than examining the problem at length, this looks at what is already working and builds on it. Sessions tend to be practical and forward-looking, with small achievable steps, which translates readily to shorter online conversations.
