About Esther
Dr. Esther Ogunjimi is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) in Texas with 21 years of experience in social work and mental health. She works with adults facing stress, anxiety, relationship concerns, anger, low self-esteem, and life changes. Sessions are offered in English and Yoruba and she accepts international clients.
Dr. Ogunjimi helps people who are coping with old wounds such as childhood trauma and abuse. She also supports those dealing with intimacy-related issues, attachment struggles, and patterns like codependency. Practical skills for better coping and clearer communication are a common focus in her work.
Her style draws on several practical therapy approaches, including cognitive behavioral work to change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors, acceptance-based strategies to deal with painful feelings, and emotion-focused techniques to understand key relationship moments. She also uses tools from dialectical methods to manage intense emotions and build distress tolerance.
Clients can expect straightforward conversations about what is getting in the way of feeling more steady and in control. Sessions focus on specific skills and small changes that can reduce overwhelm. She pays attention to how early relationships influence present-day choices and patterns.
Dr. Ogunjimi also addresses professional and caregiver stress, compassion fatigue, grief, parenting concerns, and career difficulties. To begin, a short matching questionnaire is completed and a first session is scheduled to set initial goals and steps forward.
How sessions work
How her approaches translate to online work
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings without getting overwhelmed by them, and then choose actions that align with what matters most. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thinking and practicing small behavior changes to reduce anxiety and improve mood. Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) looks at patterns in relationships and helps people name and respond to important emotions in clearer ways.Finding the right approach is usually collaborative. She will talk with the client about goals, what has or hasn’t worked before, and which methods feel most useful. Together they decide what to try first and adjust as needed over time.
The practical benefits of online work make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life. Online sessions can cut travel time, allow shorter check-ins when schedules are tight, and let someone connect from a quieter spot or during a work break. Confirm current session options before booking so you know which formats are offered and how they fit into your routine.
