About Adekunle

Adekunle "Ade" Ojelade is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) licensed in Florida with 30 years of experience. He helps people manage stress, anxiety, addictions, trauma and abuse, depression, and offers coaching for life transitions.

Ade focuses on practical steps people can use right away. Sessions look at patterns that keep stress or addictive behavior going. He also addresses attachment and abandonment concerns, body image, chronic illness and pain, caregiver strain, and relationship communication problems.

His approach blends straightforward talk with skills practice. Ade uses client-centered methods to listen and respond to what matters most to each person. He integrates cognitive behavioral techniques to change unhelpful thoughts and DBT skills for emotion regulation and coping.

For people processing past hurt, he uses EMDR-informed methods to work with trauma memories alongside mindfulness techniques for grounding. Sessions aim to reduce symptoms and build skills people can use between meetings. He supports work on codependency, commitment worries, dissociation, and separation after divorce.

Ade has worked in both Europe and the United States and brings three decades of practice to complex cases. He accepts international clients and holds sessions in English. Before booking, people should confirm the current session formats offered and any subscription details that apply.

BHow sessions work

How these approaches translate to online care

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and responding to what matters most to the person. Online sessions use that style to set goals, clarify priorities, and guide each conversation toward concrete next steps.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and actions. In online sessions CBT often includes reviewing brief exercises, tracking patterns between meetings, and practicing new ways of thinking to reduce anxiety or depressive symptoms.

Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) teaches specific skills for managing intense emotions and improving communication. A few DBT techniques are well suited to online work because they involve short skill practices and real-life homework the therapist and client review together.

Finding the right approach is part of the process. The therapist will work with the client to choose methods that match needs, goals, and preferences. That collaborative decision may combine listening-focused work with CBT or DBT skills as appropriate.

Session formats were not listed in the biography, so confirm the current options before booking. Online care can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy schedule, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and remove travel time. Many people find that regular virtual meetings help them apply skills to day-to-day life and keep momentum between appointments.
