Damian Okafor

Holistic Jungian therapist specializing in trauma and relationships

About

Hi, I’m Damian. I am registered and licensed in the UK with 9 years of professional work experience. I have experience in helping clients with stress and anxiety, trauma and abuse, coping with grief and loss, and anger management.

I trained in Regent’s University London and graduated with MSc in Psychotherapy and Counselling Psychology. I have experience working in some GP surgeries (NHS) and some counselling organisations in the UK. My therapy style is warm and interactive. I believe in treating anyone with respect, sensitivity, compassion, and I don’t believe in stigmatizing labels. My approach combines cognitive-behavioural and person- centred approaches. I’m a registered member of British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP) in the UK.

I believe that you are the expert of your story and that you have many strengths that will assist you in overcoming things that challenge you. Taking the first step to seeking a more fulfilling and happier life takes courage. I am here to support you in that process in a non-judgemental way.

Is Online Therapy the Right Fit for Your Needs?

Many people wonder whether virtual therapy can really help. For common concerns such as stress, anxiety, depression, relationship difficulties, and major life transitions, online therapy has been shown to be as effective as traditional in-person treatment for most people.

One major benefit is flexibility – clients can choose the mode of contact that fits their life, whether that is video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or in-app messaging. This range of options makes it easier to access support without rearranging commitments or travel.

Therapists who provide online services are licensed professionals, and clients are free to change therapists if they feel another fit would suit them better. For many people, virtual therapy provides an accessible, practical way to work on common mental health concerns and navigate life changes.
