About Toyosi Awesu

Are you overwhelmed by life’s challenges, wrestling with anxiety, depression, burnout, immigrant challenges, stress, grief or shame? Are you seeking healing from religious trauma, going through relationship challenges as a couple or family, or academic stress? You don’t have to face these struggles alone. My journey into counselling includes my own experience with therapy, which has brought healing and personal growth into my life. I am committed to walking alongside you on your unique path toward healing and self-discovery.

Having lived the immigrant experience myself, I understand the complexities of adjusting to a new culture, the tug-of-war between maintaining your identity and embracing change, and the stigma that can surround seeking help. I also know the resilience and strength it takes to move forward, and I admire the courage to begin that journey.

Using an integrative approach that includes CBT, strength-based therapy, solution-focused therapy, narrative therapy, and emotionally focused therapy, I am here to help you process stress and identity struggles, build compassion, and navigate relationships and faith-related challenges.

Together, we can create a sense of safety while exploring your unique story, redefine your sense of self, and build on your strengths to help you thrive in your new context. It’s not just about healing—it’s about growth, relief, and rediscovering hope. Let’s embark on this journey together.
