I’ve only had two sessions with Funmi so far and I already feel better about my mental health. She is very welcoming and allows me to speak freely without judgement. She offers tasks to better myself that I truly enjoy. I love this process so far.

- LMHC
I am a licensed mental health counselor, and a national certified counselor. I earned a Bachelor of Arts degree in International Relations, a certification in women’s studies from Florida International University, and earned a master’s degree in mental health counseling from Nova Southeastern University. I have worked in inpatient, outpatient, and residential treatment settings, and within the homeless shelter community. My therapeutic approach encompasses several modalities and theories, and as such, I have developed an eclectic style and approach to mental health care, and have experience working with young adults struggling with substance abuse and behavioral health issues. My passion lies in helping individuals find their purpose in having a fulfilling life as I utilize motivational interviewing, dialectical behavior therapy, cognitive behavior therapy, and solution focused therapy in my work. My goal is to earn your trust, it is never the other way around. Let us journey together in having you rediscover self-compassion, empowerment, and inner strength.

Online counseling allows you to receive care from a mental health practitioner via phone, video chat, or instant messaging. It is convenient for those who may have trouble getting to or would prefer not to have in-person therapy appointments. Starting at $65 per week, online counseling is generally more affordable than in-person counseling. A study by researchers at University of California, Berkeley found that online counseling can be just as effective as face-to-face therapy while being more convenient, affordable, and accessible.

She is wonderful, supportive and I am so lucky to have her!! A true gem of a person!
I’ve only had two sessions with Funmi so far and I already feel better about my mental health. She is very welcoming and allows me to speak freely without judgement. She offers tasks to better myself that I truly enjoy. I love this process so far.
She great! I can't say enough about how helpful she has been. She is very direct with my needs and has given me help real world suggestions that I have been able to easily utilize in my life as a the mother of three young children.
I love her! She’s helped me so much!
Funmi is easy to talk to and I find her so relatable. Funmi has the great ability to listen, assess, and summarize to make sure you are completely understood before offering coping strategies that you can apply. I find the solution-based, CBT, and DBT approach so useful to this stage in my life. I’ll continue to keep Funmi as a resource!
