Reviews
These quotes represent just a few of the many positive reviews that we have received for Chidi Ojinnaka. We don't pay anyone to provide their review and they are all made voluntarily. Some people's experience receiving therapy with Teen Counseling might be different.
Chidi put my worries and self deprecating thoughts at bay and re awakened the intrinsic knowledge of my true potential.
Sometimes the best advice is no advice but rather reassurance that what you’ve been doing is enough. Once we accept that we are enough exactly as we are, then we can begin deeper healing and move towards our higher self with a solid foundation of self love.
For me Self trust is an area where I struggle. Chidi has helped me see that I am not as far away from deep self trust as I may believe.
He instills in me wisdom that carries me through the week. He is an incredible therapist and I would recommend him to anyone seeking guidance.
Chidi is kind and wise and has already been a big help to my son
He has been a tremendous help to me. He has a remarkable ability to identify and prioritize the issues that need to be addressed first. So far, I’ve been genuinely impressed by his expertise, insight, and guidance, and I’m very grateful for his support.
Great person helped me with all my troubles and just a genuine therapist to listen and help your problems
I cannot say enough good things about my therapist and the support he has given me. He has been incredibly helpful during one of the hardest periods of my life, when I honestly didn’t know how I was going to pull myself out of rock bottom and get back on my feet.
From the beginning, he has been supportive, understanding, and genuinely committed to helping me work through everything I’ve been dealing with. Therapy with him has given me the tools, perspective, and encouragement I needed to keep moving forward.
If you’re going through a difficult time or feel like you don’t know how to get yourself back on track, I would absolutely recommend him. He has made a real difference in my life, and I’m very grateful for the help and support he has given me.
I’ve had a great experience and will definitely continue seeing him. I highly recommend him to anyone looking for a therapist who truly cares about helping you through the hard times. ❤️
Chidi’s great at his profession!
Appreciated his ability to listen and give advice. He took the time to understand and shared perspectives which really helped.
Chidi has been easy to share our feelings with. He took the time to get to know us and what it is we are looking to enhance or change in our relationship. He reads body language and helps us dig deeper to resolve conflicts. He is direct, yet kind. He offers solutions and support.
Very experienced in parenting solutions. Listens to what you have to say, validates your feelings and offers a new perspective on issues you are dealing with.
This is exactly what I needed
I am so glad we have been linked for couples therapy with Mr. Ojinnaka. He has responded very quickly from the beginning, has always been polite and courteous, and is a great listener. I feel like I can be myself and openly express my emotions in our sessions, and even when I apologize for 'rambling', he quickly encourages me to communicate and reminds me that I am in a safe place to do so. I feel like he listens with intent to hear the whole picture, asks questions that make us think in different ways, and helps us to come to our own understanding so we learn through the process of healing. We are so grateful for his patience, knowledge and direction, and we look forward to continuing sessions with him so we can grow stronger both as a couple and as individuals.
Sensible and intelligent. Relates well to his clients. Gives praise freely and recognizes issues as they arrive. Highly recommend!
Knowledgeable.
Spoke to both parties in a respectful manner and addressed concerns brought up, giving advice on moving forward with resolution.
Chidi is a highly skilled therapist. He has enough experience and expertise in what he does. I appreciate his patience and attention during our sessions.
Listens, is able to address needs positively, attentive to both partners, points out challenges without shaming
He is very wise and gives good counsel. He is upbeat and encouraging. He has had a lot of experience.
Very pleased, it's helping a lot because of who he is and what he does.
Chidi Ojinnaka
Listens to the patient needs as well as concerns. He is a great listener, his way of guidance and advice is great. He is very patient with his patients. He is very understanding and concern about his clients mental and well being.
He has helped me stay focused, he does check in with me at least once a week, he also returns messages in a timely manner.
Over all in my opinion he is a wonderful therapist
I’m grateful to have worked with him.
Chidi is very helpful and understanding. I would recommend people to Chidi that is struggling with anxiety.
He is a good therapist who listens and helps.
Mr Chidi hears me out and has provided many tools and reminders of how to handle my “need work on “ concerns. Amazing listener and always provides relatable examples
Chidi has been great so far. He is a very knowledgeable and understanding therapist. This is my first time doing therapy and he has made my experience so far very positive and pleasant.
He has been extremely helpful and been a key factor in my husband’s recovery
I feel comfortable talking to him, and I truly value and respect his advice. Part of the reason I chose him is because I missed the sound support and guidance I used to receive from my late father.
Mr. Chidi’s experience and life lessons have been invaluable in helping me realize that I need to prioritize myself and my daughter above everything else.
Since I’ve been taking baby steps, it’s starting to work. I hadn’t realized how burned out I was, and now I can finally name what I’ve been feeling: parental fatigue.
He doesn’t just tell me what I want to hear—his advice is practical, grounded, and applicable to real life.
Has been very personable, yet professional in the same manner. Has been a pleasant experience, and I actually look forward to our conversations!
Chidi is patient, kind, offers solutions and tools, stories that are fitting. He makes us smile and laugh. Session 2 and we are already finding more reasons to be happy together. Long way to go but we see a light and Chidi helped and will continue to help us do that.
Chidi does a wonderful job of listening, and using his experience and knowledge to help you understand and to give you ways to help you through your experience. I would recommend him to anyone looking for advice.
Chidi is the most authentic person I’ve come across and has helped me so much.
Very personallable. Easy to talk with. And feels like he actually listens.
Does a fabulous job
Chidi is thoughtful and kind. He provides valuable insight and actionable feedback.
