A conversation with Marvel Adeyemi
-
I realised that some of my friends and family ask me for advise about their relationships or situations. They say that I am insightful, objective, have good listening skills and empathetic. So I decided to study counselling and social works so I can be empowered with knowledge and tools to effectively support my community.
-
I believe our thoughts, beliefs and world views influence our behaviours. Therefore, psychoeducation, motivational interviewing, cognitive behavioural therapy, including behavioural interventions, behaviour modification, cognitive interventions and cognitive therapy in general has influenced my clinical practice.
-
I am interested in Holistic health, including the mind, body and soul.
-
I use person centred, CBT, solution focused , Family systemic approach, Interpersonal techniques, Relaxation strategies, mindfulness, meditation and skills training techniques.
-
I believe progress is being made when clients feel empowered and begin to make little changes in their lives. I help clients set SMART goals so that progress can be measurable. Also, I evaluate and assess regularly to ensure positive treatment outcomes. Together with my client, necessary adjustments are made based on client situations and feedback.
-
Therapy helps me explore my emotions, thoughts and behaviours; helping me identify my strengths and areas that could use improvements, Therapy also provides me with effective tools to reach my goals.
-
A feeling of fulfilment knowing I have helped someone's mental health flourish.
-
Yes, when a client does not show up for a session.
-
I believe one of the significant problems we face in the world today is inequities and poor access to health care.
