Wanda Olugbala

For three decades, I’ve dedicated my practice to “Healing the Helper.” As a Licensed Clinical Social Worker and certified member of the Academy of Clinical Social Workers, I specialize in supporting those who consistently care for others—whether you’re a parent, healthcare professional, teacher, social worker, first responder, or community organizer. If you’ve spent years nurturing others while putting your own needs aside, I’m here to help you restore balance and rediscover your own wellbeing. My Therapeutic Approach I believe in creating a warm, collaborative partnership where we focus on solutions rather than dwelling exclusively on problems. By blending interpersonal therapy with cognitive behavioral techniques, we’ll address both relationship patterns and thought processes that may be contributing to burnout, compassion fatigue, anxiety, or depression. Together, we’ll build on your existing strengths while developing practical strategies for sustainable self-care and boundary setting. Your Healing Journey Our work together will be purposeful and hopeful. I’ll help you transform the exhaustion of constant giving into renewed energy, move beyond limiting beliefs toward confidence, and strengthen your important relationships. I understand the unique challenges faced by those in helping roles and offer a supportive space where you can finally prioritize your own needs without guilt. Small steps forward will be celebrated as we create a sustainable path where you can continue supporting others without sacrificing yourself. What to Expect in Sessions In our online sessions, you’ll find a respectful environment where your wisdom and experiences are valued. I won’t position myself as an authority with all the answers—instead, I’ll be a compassionate guide helping you uncover your own solutions. We’ll focus on practical tools you can immediately implement to establish healthier boundaries, nurture meaningful connections, and rediscover joy in both your personal and professional life. Your growth and healing are my priorities, and I’m committed to helping you create lasting positive change.
