Wanda Olugbala, LMSW
About me
My name is Wanda Olugbala. I have more than 25 years experience as a fully licensed social worker in the state of Michigan. Together my clients and I explore the true barrier(s) to their peace, prosperity, and a life well-lived. Using elements of both interpersonal and cognitive behavior therapies, I partner with my clients so that you may wage your own personal revolution for self-care. I believe in you and my goal in our work together is to strengthen your resolve to live a fear-free life. I am dedicated to helping adults repair and strengthen their primary relationships in such a way that they bring up competent, healthy, successful families where positive self esteem and self concept are the norm. My partnerships with clients have allowed them to navigate anxiety, depression, divorce, fertility challenges, empty nesting, parenting struggles, caregiver fatigue and more.

Reviews
These quotes represent just a few of the many positive reviews that we have received for Wanda Olugbala. We don't pay anyone to provide their review and they are all made voluntarily. Some people's experience receiving therapy with BetterHelp might be different.
I feel so heard in my sessions. She validates my thoughts and feelings and puts into words things I struggle with. After my first session, I felt as though a huge weight had been lifted off of my chest because someone was there to listen to me, understand the feelings, put them into prospective and words, and was in my corner. I have gained great insight into how mental health plays into my day to day life and I use my techniques and strategies learned everyday.

Wanda has been an amazing asset to my life. I am very picky when it comes to therapists and I can honestly say that she has been the support I've needed through this rough time in my life. I highly recommend her to anyone who needs someone to talk to.
