Compassionate Therapy for Personal Liberation
Welcome to Celestial Shift Therapy
At Celestial Shift Therapy, we create an affirming, trauma-informed space where healing is rooted in self-acceptance, transformation, and identity exploration.
Whether you're navigating life transitions, past trauma, or the pressure to fit into roles that no longer serve you, we’re here to walk with you—gently, and at your pace.
Our Mission
Our mission is to shift how mental healthcare is experienced—especially for BIPOC and LGBTQ+ individuals. We offer compassionate, identity-affirming therapy that challenges the status quo and nurtures deep self-awareness, emotional resilience, and personal liberation.
Who We Work With
Celestial Shift Therapy focuses on working with adults who are:
Exploring their gender or sexual identity and seeking affirming, knowledgeable support.
Managing cultural or intergenerational trauma that shapes their relationships and sense of self.
Navigating codependency or challenging relationship dynamics with compassion and practical strategies.
Building confidence after years of internalized shame and negative self-beliefs.
Seeking a therapist who understands and relates to their lived experiences and values.
What Makes Us Different
Therapy should feel like coming home to yourself, not fitting into a mold.
At Celestial Shift, we center you. We blend Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), and strengths-based, trauma-informed care. This isn't about quick fixes but sustainable shifts that align with your most authentic self.
Meet Your Therapist

My approach is warm, direct, and nonjudgmental. As a Nigerian-American therapist, I deeply understand the complexities of identity, cultural expectations, and internalized shame—challenges that many first-generation Americans, immigrants, and BIPOC individuals face. Whether you're navigating anxiety, depression, trauma, or life transitions, I'm here to offer both support and accountability as you grow into your most grounded, authentic self.
My Specialties Include:
Anxiety and depression treatment
Trauma-informed therapy
Cultural identity and intergenerational conflict

I serve clients throughout Houston and the surrounding areas (and Florida), offering telehealth therapy sessions to fit your needs.
