Mr Jerry James Doka
Addiction Counselor
“A professional psychologist with years of experience in mental health management, addiction treatment, and rehabilitation. I have experience working with adolescents on drugs and other self-defeating behaviors. I am also a lecturer with Nasarawa State University Keffi. Nigeria.”
About Me
As an experienced psychologist, I guide adolescents through the complexities of drug use and self-defeating behaviours. Drawing on years in addiction treatment and mental health management, I help young people explore their unique challenges. We work together to understand underlying patterns. This helps develop practical strategies for navigating difficult emotions and building resilience. My approach supports a move towards healthier choices.
Approach
Working with young people facing substance-related problems, I concentrate on clear, practical steps that change daily decisions and reduce harm. In Keffi and online in English, sessions are structured, predictable and respectful of each person's pace, blending focused conversation with hands-on exercises. We set short-term goals, map and monitor triggers, practise coping and thinking skills between meetings, then refine plans based on what works. This approach tends to suit adolescents and adults who want practical, skill-based change.
