About Adekunle
Adekunle "Ade" Ojelade is a Florida licensed clinical social worker (LCSW) with 30 years of experience. He focuses on life purpose, stress, anxiety, addictions, trauma and abuse, depression, and coaching. Ade is based in Florida and works with adults who are asking what comes next after change or loss.
Ade uses clear, practical conversations to help people who feel stuck. He draws on client-centered methods to listen for values and priorities. He uses cognitive behavioral tools to identify unhelpful thoughts and DBT skills to manage strong emotions and impulses.
He also brings trauma-focused methods such as Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) and mindfulness techniques for grounding when memories or intense reactions interfere with daily life. Sessions focus on concrete steps people can try between meetings. This often includes experiments, skill practice, and short check-ins about progress.
Ade treats issues that often follow big life changes - abandonment, attachment concerns, relationship and communication problems, codependency, and commitment worries. He also supports people facing chronic illness, caregiver stress, cancer-related challenges, and body image concerns. He works with mood concerns including depression and disruptive mood dysregulation related problems.
His approach is collaborative and practical. He helps clients weigh options, test changes, and notice what shifts. People who want focused work on direction, coping, or changing patterns will find sessions geared toward usable strategies and steady follow-through.
How therapeutic approaches guide online sessions
Ade uses client-centered therapy to focus sessions on what matters most to the person. That approach means the therapist listens first, follows the client's priorities, and helps shape goals together. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is used to map thoughts, feelings, and behaviors and to build practical exercises that address unhelpful patterns. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) supplies emotion regulation and distress tolerance skills for managing intense reactions and reducing impulsive behavior.Finding the right approach is part of the work. Ade discusses methods with each person and decides together which tools to use based on needs, goals, and preferences. That lets the approach change as progress and challenges emerge.
