Helping You Find the Right Fit

At Ibi Ayo, we understand how important it is to feel comfortable with your therapist. Finding the right fit can sometimes feel a bit like dating and we want to make that process as seamless as possible.

Our onboarding form is designed to help us understand what’s bringing you to therapy, your preferences (such as virtual or in-person sessions), and your scheduling needs. This allows us to thoughtfully match you with a therapist who aligns with you.

Our goal is to remove any friction that might get in the way of finding the right fit. Your responses play a key role in this process, so we encourage you to be as open and honest as you feel comfortable.

Everything you share is treated with care and kept strictly confidential.

This will be your first full session at Ibi Ayo. This session is a gentle starting point where we take time to get to know you and understand what brings you to therapy. We will explore the concerns you’re facing, your current experiences, and any goals or hopes you have for therapy, whether you are seeking clarity, tools for managing stress, or a safe space to process deeper emotional challenges.

We will talk through how therapy works, including confidentiality, session frequency, and what to expect moving forward. By the end of the intake session, we will collaboratively create a plan for therapy that feels aligned with your goals, ensuring you feel informed and supported as we begin your journey toward healing and growth.

Therapy sessions typically last 60 minutes and are scheduled weekly or bi-weekly, depending on your needs and availability.

Together, we will regularly review your progress and adjust session frequency if needed, ensuring therapy remains supportive and flexible for you.

We offer therapy in-person at our quiet, welcoming Lagos office and virtually for clients who are far away or who prefer to connect from home or wherever they feel safe and comfortable.

In-person therapy: Allows for a calming change of environment and face-to-face connection.

Virtual therapy: Offers flexibility, reduces commute stress, and can be accessed from anywhere, providing consistent support even during travel or busy seasons.
