Nekpen Ogbebor

Counselor

An experienced counsellor and CBT practitioner. I encourage healing and recovery within a safe and supportive environment by providing evidence-based resourceful interventions.

About Me

As an experienced counsellor, I help you find healing and recovery within a safe, supportive space. Drawing on CBT, I provide evidence-based, resourceful interventions. We’ll work together to equip you with practical strategies for daily life. If you are seeking clear tools to manage challenges, my approach offers a grounded path forward. This can help you build lasting resilience.

Approach

You’ll notice sessions move with clear structure and gentle pacing, combining practical, skills-based work with space to explore feelings so change feels manageable. Based in Lagos, I offer in-person and online sessions in English, and with children or families we adapt activities and assessments to match developmental needs. Between meetings I set brief experiments or reflections to practice new responses and track progress, then we review what’s useful together. This way of working suits people who want steady, usable steps toward greater coping and clarity.
