Licensed Clinical Psychologists

“Trained in the United Kingdom in CBT-I. He resolves insomnia without pills. An experienced Clinical Psychologist whose caseload cut across all kinds of psychosocial problems including addiction.”

About Me

I help individuals resolve insomnia without medication, using effective, evidence-based strategies. As a UK-trained Clinical Psychologist, I specialise in CBT-I, a concrete method for lasting sleep improvement. My broad experience addresses various emotional and life problems, including addiction. This means I understand how sleep issues often connect with wider concerns. I am a good match for clients seeking practical, pill-free solutions for better rest and overall well-being.

Approach

When we work together, sessions focus on clear, structured steps to shift sleep and related life patterns rather than quick fixes. Based in Abuja and available online in English, I use brief assessments, collaborative goal-setting and between-session tasks that build new habits week by week. Sessions are measured and direct: we review sleep data, try tailored behavioural experiments and problem-solve links with stress or substance issues. This approach suits people seeking straightforward, skills-based change they can carry into daily life.
