About me
Bio
Falling into the mental health field is definitely by a higher design not of my own. My name is Femi Olukoya. Born and raised mostly in United States and partly in Africa and Europe. I was born in down town Houston and grew up without a father figure. This being my situation, my grand father and some male figures in my extended family picked up the mantle and excelled in giving a template I could run with.
After High School I joined the U.S. Navy at 17 and was immediately shipped to Iraq. After I did my four year tour I transitioned myself back into the civilian world and began my journey in the Mental health field From Psychiatric Technician to licensed Clinical Therapist because of my experience with losing friends and shipmates to suicide and PTSD. I have been practicing in this field for 10 years. I have experienced a vast range of cultures in different countries and society and i pride myself in multicultural practicing. I am grateful for my experiences good and bad that have let me to being the best husband, father, son, brother, relative and friend i could possibly strive to be. I would love to be given the chance to do the same for you in a safe, non judgmental space.
My Approach
As a licensed Psychotherapist, I believe every client deserves peace and freedom to be their authentic self. That means therapy with me is centered around how to create the best version of you based on your goals, needs, values, and preferences. My favorite kind of work is deeply person-centered. We can build a relationship of trust and a space for exploring the authentic you. Being a veteran that’s been through modern combat in different countries, It takes a lot to get me out of my element. It would be hard to surprise me.
