About

Sylvia Akingbade is a licensed professional counselor practicing in Texas with eight years of experience in the mental health field. She has provided support to children, adults, older adults, and people living with disabilities, developing a deep understanding of how helpful it can be to have someone to process life’s challenges with.

Her therapeutic approach blends Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) with person-centered methods. CBT offers a collaborative framework to identify and challenge unhelpful thoughts and behaviors while keeping the individual’s goals central, and person-centered therapy allows the person to guide the pace and focus of sessions so the work reflects their needs and comfort.

In every meeting she seeks to create a supportive environment where people feel heard, respected, and empowered. She meets clients where they are - with empathy and without judgment - and emphasizes attending to the whole person to help make the path to healing clearer.

Sylvia considers this work more than a career - it is her calling. She encourages taking the first brave step and continuing to show up for the growth one seeks, and she looks forward to walking alongside individuals as they pursue their goals.
