Dr. Olutimmi Agbelemose, Psy.D.

Welcome!

Some days can feel heavy, like you're moving through life on autopilot and struggling to find the spark that used to keep you going. Maybe relationships feel harder to maintain, finding energy for daily routines is now nearly impossible, or the pressure to "hold it all together" leaves you feeling drained and disconnected. If you've been carrying that weight alone, know that things don't have to stay this way and support is within reach.

I specialize in helping teens and adults (18+) move through experiences of stress, anxiety, trauma, relationship concerns, life transitions, disconnection, and self-doubt. With me as your therapist, you'll find a non-judgmental space where you can slow down, be fully yourself, explore what's been getting in your way, and begin rewriting patterns that aren't serving you. I believe true healing happens in the context of a safe and trusting therapeutic relationship built on authenticity, humility, curiosity, and sometimes even laughter.

Therapy isn't about instant solutions - it's about gaining insight into what's been holding you back and creating strategies that work for your life. Together, we'll identify the cycles that keep repeating and build a plan for moving forward, giving you the tools and confidence to make the changes you're hoping for. I'm passionate in helping people develop what a healthy, fulfilling life looks like for them, while honoring every individual's unique identity, cultural values, and life experiences.

My approach is collaborative and tailored to your unique needs so you don't have to navigate your challenges alone. I draw from Interpersonal Therapy (IPT), Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Humanistic and Psychodynamic principles, as well as mindfulness, self-compassion, and holistic practices. I also incorporate elements of Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) and Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT) to uncover each individual's specific concerns, strengths, and goals.

Taking this first step can feel daunting, but I'm here to walk alongside you as you begin this journey in creating a life that feels more grounded, purposeful, and aligned with who you are. I offer therapy virtually across California and in-person in Newport Beach. Let's take that next step together.
