Ekene Balogun
Certified Professional Counsellor
I hold an MA in Counselling Psychology and have extensive experience working with children, youth, individuals, and families. During my upbringing, I often felt insecure and overwhelmed by life. At times, I found myself feeling stuck and hopeless, searching for direction that was not always easy to find. However, once I realized that things did not have to be this way, everything changed for me.
It may come as a surprise or relief to know that feeling stuck is a common experience for all of us at some point. As human beings, we can feel anxious, uncertain, overwhelmed, vulnerable, and insecure. By taking an integrative and collaborative approach, we can work together to address challenges and move towards a desired path.
A famous quote states, “Life is 10% of what happens to us and 90% is how we react to it.” I believe that we gain valuable insights from our experiences. My goal is to help individuals reconnect with the hope that change can happen, barriers can be overcome, and quality of life can be maximized.
