John Ojewole

My communication style

I provide a supportive environment where clients can express themselves freely. My approach includes active listening, patience, and empathy, ensuring clients feel heard and understood. This foundation fosters a strong therapeutic alliance that encourages personal growth and self-exploration.

My journey to mental healthcare

With over twenty years of experience in psychotherapy, I have dedicated my career to addressing psychological distress within our community. My entry into this field stemmed from a profound commitment to understanding and alleviating the complexities of mental health challenges that individuals face.

My goals for you

After a preliminary assessment, I engage the client in discussions to clarify their primary therapy objectives and establish specific, measurable, and time-bound (SMART) goals. I also explain how we will measure progress throughout our sessions and highlight the importance of their active participation in achieving these goals.

Our first session

In the initial session, we will establish the therapeutic framework through introductions, informed consent, and guidelines. An assessment of the client's presenting issues will be conducted, and, if time permits, we will outline the goals for the therapeutic process.
