Lolade Bakrin, LPC

Lolade Bakrin is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) who helps people manage anxiety, stress, depression, and relationship concerns. She offers a calm, nonjudgmental space where clients can talk about what feels hardest. Many people come to her feeling stuck during life transitions or struggling with self-esteem and trauma. Her work often looks at how thoughts, feelings, and actions connect. She uses practical strategies to help people notice patterns and try different responses. Sessions include sorting out communication problems, managing impulsivity, and coping with grief or infidelity. Bakrin draws on cognitive behavioral therapy, along with person-centered and trauma-informed ways of working when helpful. She helps people build skills they can use between sessions, such as emotion regulation and clearer communication. The approach is collaborative, with goals set together. She has worked in school-based and community mental health settings. That experience includes supporting people from diverse backgrounds through academic pressures and emotional stress. Her three years of clinical experience inform a straightforward, empathetic style. Starting therapy with her begins with a short matching questionnaire and scheduling. She practices in Georgia and conducts sessions in English. People who want to try therapy can expect support with attachment issues, body image, codependency, social anxiety, and women's issues among other concerns.

How evidence-based approaches translate to online care

CBT focuses on noticing unhelpful thoughts and testing different behaviors to change how someone feels and acts. It is often used for anxiety, depression, stress, and relationship patterns and centers on practical skills and short-term experiments. Person-centered work emphasizes listening, empathy, and building a trusting relationship so people can explore concerns at their own pace. Trauma-informed elements pay attention to safety, pacing, and the ways past hurt can affect present relationships and emotions. Finding the right approach is part of therapy. The therapist will collaborate with each person to choose methods that match their needs, goals, and preferences. That may mean starting with cognitive techniques and adding person-centered or trauma-informed practices as things change. Confirm the session formats before booking, as the biography does not list specific online options. In general, online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy schedule, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when days are tight. Some people find it simpler to focus on therapy when they can join from a convenient location, and others appreciate not needing to take extra time for commuting. Licensed professionals can adapt exercises and homework to work well in virtual sessions when that format is available.
