My name is Lihle Adeyemi. I am Licensed Marriage and Therapist, and also an Associate Professional Clinical Counselor. I completed my master’s in counseling psychology in 2020 from California Baptist University and began practicing therapy with students from elementary to high school level, and adults of all ages. I enjoy working with teens, adults, and couples.

Much of my work is informed by my own experiences growing up in a village in South Africa and eventually moving to the United States with my husband and two kids. I tailor my therapeutic approach to meet my client’s unique needs, culture, and life circumstances. I also believe that therapy is a collaborative process, and my role is to empower my clients to achieve their goals.

I understand that making the decision to seek help can be difficult, so I use an approach that is compassionate, direct, and non-judgmental to help create an environment where you feel supported in your counseling journey. Additionally, I use tools and interventions from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Solution Focused Therapy (SFBT), Family Systems Theory, Mindfulness Practices, Emotion Focused Therapy (EFT), and other attachment-based and empirically sound models.

I am also a professional singer – song writer and I incorporate my passion for music in my sessions when needed.
