About Esther

Her work includes attention to eating concerns, ADHD, anger, and navigating divorce or separation.
Her approach draws on Emotionally-Focused Therapy alongside cognitive and behavioral methods. Sessions often include focusing on emotions in the moment, identifying patterns that keep someone stuck, and practicing concrete skills to manage distress. She also uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Client-Centered Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, and Dialectical Behavior Therapy as tools when helpful.
Dr. Ogunjimi speaks English and Yoruba, and she accepts international clients. Cost varies by location and sessions use a subscription that can be canceled at any time. To begin, prospective clients are asked to complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session.
Her practice emphasizes clear conversation and practical steps. Conversations are shaped around the issues a person brings, with an aim to clarify feelings, improve communication, and strengthen coping strategies.
How her approaches translate to online sessions
Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) focuses on naming and working with emotions in the moment to shift unhelpful interaction patterns. It is often used when people want to better understand attachment-related feelings and recurring relationship dynamics.Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings while clarifying personal values and taking committed action. It can be useful for stress, anxiety, and coping with life changes.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to decide whether EFT, ACT, or other methods best fit their goals and preferences. This is an ongoing conversation rather than a fixed prescription.
Formats for sessions are not detailed in the biography, so confirm current session options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy day, reduce travel time, and offer shorter check-ins when needed. They also allow people to work with a licensed professional from different locations, and the therapist can adapt exercises and skill-building to the online setting.
