My name is Wale and I’m a first generation Nigerian American woman (she/her) practicing as a licensed mental health therapist in New York State and Texas. I believe that therapy can not and should not look the same for everybody. In my practice, I like to structure the therapy around you, your needs, and identities. In order to do that, I always take a collaborative and humanistic approach with every client. My goal in each session is to create a safe and judgment free zone so that you can feel free to show up as your authentic self. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61d4dca6d2580f5fd4798d8d/0e8c5480-5371-473c-8619-0ff3d33e8cdb/DTS_Identity_Alex_Tan_3682.jpg Home https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61d4dca6d2580f5fd4798d8d/0e1596de-0fe8-4696-acb1-9b5bde700e65/DTS_Identity_Alex_Tan_3687.jpg Home https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61d4dca6d2580f5fd4798d8d/29129a90-a240-406d-9cb2-724f75b4d309/DTS_Grand_Design_Daniel_Faro_4118.jpg Home https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61d4dca6d2580f5fd4798d8d/5216f29c-585a-4c94-bff7-33294d44c88a/Tezza-7135.jpeg Home - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61d4dca6d2580f5fd4798d8d/54ac6a19-6b62-44f5-9925-12c66731e79e/Wale-11.jpg Home https://www.waleokerayi.com/template-for-duplicating- daily 0.75 2022-01-04 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61d4dca6d2580f5fd4798d8d/1641340103347-SM4UD8ASD8J282LN9KHC/C.jpg Template for duplicating ♡ https://www.waleokerayi.com/style-guide daily 0.75 2022-01-04 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61d4dca6d2580f5fd4798d8d/1641340075120-556NE1GEAUCBJ9CTCAWE/SQ-1.jpg Style Guide - Stack Image block https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61d4dca6d2580f5fd4798d8d/1641340075096-GARPF50N40LKEQPX8M9V/SQ-1.jpg Style Guide - Poster Image block https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61d4dca6d2580f5fd4798d8d/1641340075106-EU3QZP9OZ4Z42M6K7LA6/SQ-1.jpg Style Guide - Collage Image block https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61d4dca6d2580f5fd4798d8d/1641340075101-UO7QYR7A0VLB11IINL96/SQ-1.jpg Style Guide - Overlap Image block https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61d4dca6d2580f5fd4798d8d/1641340075115-8ETYABM6KPRQ8ADCBFF8/SQ-1.jpg Style Guide - Card Image block https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61d4dca6d2580f5fd4798d8d/1641340075111-RD84W5WDMR54U5TSVBS7/SQ-1.jpg Style Guide Inline image block https://www.waleokerayi.com/about daily 0.75 2024-12-10 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61d4dca6d2580f5fd4798d8d/774f0ba1-0828-4387-8d63-049445df70d4/Wale-14.jpg About https://www.waleokerayi.com/about/bibliotherapy monthly 0.5 2023-06-26 https://www.waleokerayi.com/about/groups-speaking monthly 0.5 2023-05-29 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61d4dca6d2580f5fd4798d8d/9e2bea83-b85f-4b9d-984e-22d4ce97e2ce/IMG_4227.jpeg About - Author Talks & Conversations - Author Talks & Conversations Throughout my academic and professional career, I have facilitated various workshops and conversations discussing mental health and the workplace, social media and mental health, artists and mental health, creators and mental health, racial trauma, microaggressions in the workplace, parenting/fertility, gender and sexuality, and social justice. I have also been able to tie my love of reading and mental heath together by facilitating various author talks. These author talks have been a great place to learn more about authors, their life, their creative process, and their mental health journeys. https://www.waleokerayi.com/about/relationship-therapy monthly 0.5 2022-01-07 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61d4dca6d2580f5fd4798d8d/53a6b616-1d81-40d2-8df3-fb599d76ba7b/DTS_Misc_1_%28Nich_Fancher%29_Nick_Fancher_4343.jpg About - Relationship Therapy - Relationship Therapy I strive to create a safe and non judgmental space for all relationships (couples, folks in an open/poly relationship, LGBTQ folks, etc.) to identify unhealthy patterns in their relationship. By addressing these unhelpful patterns, therapy can help them create new patterns to aid in a stronger bond. I work with folks in relationships who are struggling with communication, trauma, intimacy, boundaries, disconnection, and cultural differences. Relationship therapy can also be helpful for life’s transitions such as: moving in together, becoming parents, premarital counseling, and marriage/engagement. https://www.waleokerayi.com/about/individual monthly 0.5 2022-01-07 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61d4dca6d2580f5fd4798d8d/245eefcd-4ac6-464f-941f-8e822310a8c0/DTS_Identity_Alex_Tan_3672.jpg About - Individual Sessions - Individual Therapy My number one priority is to create a safe and non judgmental space where you can have raw and honest conversations about life’s stressors and the ways that they impact your daily life. My approach to therapy is eclectic, multiculturally competent, and collaborative. There is no “perfect” way to approach healing and growth so I build the therapy around each person's individual needs. Although every session looks different, my empathy and honesty never waver. One of the main benefits of therapy is that it offers an unbiased opinion that allows you to see things from a bigger perspective in situations where that may feel impossible. My role as your therapist is to support you through life’s biggest moments: life transitions, relationship issues, body image, depression, anxiety, trauma, cultural and multicultural identity issues, racial issues, gender and sexual identity development, and addiction. I am especially interested in working with creators, artists, and media folks. https://www.waleokerayi.com/about/therapy-for-authors monthly 0.5 2023-09-25 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61d4dca6d2580f5fd4798d8d/fccf085d-1f2e-41dc-8d1d-6d8142af5dea/IMG_6043.jpeg
