About Oyeyemi

Oyeyemi Alabi is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in Texas who uses practical, hands-on methods to help parents and families manage stress and parenting challenges. She draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Solution-Focused Therapy to guide clear steps forward. Her style is warm and respectful and she listens first to understand each family's situation.

Oyeyemi focuses on common concerns like anxiety, depression, relationship strain, and parenting. She also works with issues related to ADHD, trauma and abuse, and intimacy-related problems.

Background and approach

She pays attention to developmental and neurodiverse needs such as autism, intellectual disability, and emotional distress. Sessions often emphasize straightforward tools. She helps people notice the thoughts and behaviors that get in the way and then practice changes that fit daily life.

She also helps families set small, achievable goals and build on what is already working. Her background includes work across school and personal settings, where she supported children and adults as well as their families. Oyeyemi explains interventions plainly and adapts them to each household’s routines and values.

She can include faith-based perspectives when that fits the family’s beliefs. She offers services in English and Yoruba. Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text messaging.

Getting started involves a short matching questionnaire and scheduling a session once a family chooses to begin.

How evidence-based approaches work online

Oyeyemi uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help families notice unhelpful thoughts and change small daily behaviors. CBT is practical and skill-focused, which can help with anxiety, depression, and stress-related parenting challenges.

She also uses Solution-Focused Therapy to help people set clear, short-term goals and build on strengths. This approach focuses on what is working now and on small steps that move a family toward its goals instead of spending long periods on past problems.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. She will collaborate with each family to choose methods that match their needs, goals, and values. That choice is revisited as progress is made and priorities shift.

Online sessions make this collaborative work more flexible. Video calls allow live interaction for skill practice and coaching. Phone sessions, live chat, and text messaging offer shorter, more frequent check-ins and are easier to fit around school and work. These options help families access therapy from home and use tools in real-life moments, which can speed up building new routines.

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.
