Oluwakemi Babatunde

Oluwakemi Babatunde is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in South Carolina with seven years of experience. She uses a client-centered approach to help people work through stress, anxiety, depression, trauma, anger, and relationship concerns. Kemi writes plainly and listens closely to each person's story before suggesting ways forward.

She combines client-centered care with cognitive behavioral tools and solution-focused strategies. That means sessions often start by identifying what matters most to the client, then testing small, practical steps to change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. The aim is to help people see progress quickly and build skills they can use outside sessions.

Her background spans residential treatment, outpatient and inpatient settings, private practice, and school-based services. She has experience with organizations such as Correct Care Solutions, the Department of Mental Health, Justice Works, the Department of Corrections, and New Beginnings Counseling Firm. Those roles shaped her ability to work with a range of life challenges and crises.

In therapy she focuses on coping with life changes, parenting concerns, communication problems, self-love, and women's issues alongside core mental health concerns. Sessions are practical and goal-oriented, with attention to emotional safety and pacing that fits each person.

People starting work with her are guided through a short questionnaire and scheduling process to match goals and availability. Prospective clients should confirm current session options before booking to make sure the format fits their needs.

How her approaches translate to online therapy

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and building a trusting connection. The therapist follows the client's lead, helping them set priorities and move at a comfortable pace; this approach supports emotional processing and clearer decision making.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, helps people identify unhelpful thoughts and try different ways of thinking and acting. It is useful for worries, low mood, stress, and patterns that keep problems going because it emphasizes practical exercises and homework between sessions.

Solution-Focused Therapy concentrates on small, achievable steps toward the client's goals. Sessions tend to be forward-looking and action-oriented, which can make progress feel concrete and measurable.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will collaborate with each person to decide which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences. That means trying techniques, checking what helps, and adjusting the plan over time.

If you are considering online therapy, confirm the session formats offered before booking. The main practical benefits to consider are easier fitting of appointments into a busy week, fewer travel needs, and flexibility for shorter check-ins when days are tight. Discuss format options during the intake so sessions can be arranged to match schedule and day-to-day demands.
