About Lolade
Lolade Bakrin is a Licensed Professional Counselor who focuses on helping people manage stress, anxiety, depression, and relationship concerns. She creates a calm space where clients can talk openly about their experiences and feel heard without judgment. Her style is direct and practical, aimed at real change between sessions.
Bakrin draws on cognitive-behavioral ideas to help people notice how thoughts affect feelings and actions. She also weaves in person-centered and trauma-informed perspectives when those approaches fit the situation.
Background and approach
Sessions often include identifying patterns, practicing new skills, and setting small goals to try between meetings. Her background includes work in school-based and community mental health settings. That experience shaped her approach to managing emotional stress, improving communication, and supporting people through life transitions.
She has three years of professional experience as an LPC in Georgia. In sessions she uses plain language and clear steps, so clients understand what they’re trying and why. She helps people break big problems into smaller, doable changes.
There is attention to cultural context and multicultural concerns when they come up. People who struggle with self-esteem, body image, codependency, or social anxiety can expect focused skills work along with space to process feelings. Bakrin also addresses attachment issues, impulsivity, forgiveness, and finding life purpose as part of therapy when relevant.
Practical approaches for online therapy and growth
Many sessions use cognitive-behavioral techniques to help people spot unhelpful thoughts and try new behaviors. That approach is useful for anxiety, depression, and stress because it focuses on concrete skill-building and practice between sessions.Person-centered work creates space for people to share their experience at their own pace. It emphasizes listening and using the client's goals to guide sessions. Trauma-aware methods are included when past hurts affect current coping, with attention to pacing and safety in the conversation.
Finding the right mix of techniques is a collaborative process. The therapist will work with each person to choose approaches that fit their needs, goals, and comfort level, and adjustments are made as progress is tracked.
Online therapy is offered through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging to make care more flexible. Video lets people use visual cues and a closer conversation, phone sessions can work well when bandwidth is limited or a quicker check-in is needed, and messaging provides ongoing support between meetings. These options help fit therapy into a busy week and make it easier to keep momentum.
