Meet Bola.
Bola is the founder and therapist at SereneMind Therapy, where she passionately supports Black African immigrants and the unique challenges they encounter. As a Black woman who immigrated from Nigeria as an international student, she knows firsthand the complexities of adapting to a new culture while grappling with discrimination and feelings of loneliness. Her own journey often included being the only Black person in various educational settings. With over a decade of experience in community-based and clinical environments, Bola is devoted to helping individuals, couples, and families embrace their identities and cultivate resilience as they face life's hurdles together.
Bola loves to spend her free time singing, reading, catching up on movies, and engaging with her church community. As an active board member of a nonprofit dedicated to providing accessible, inclusive, and cutting-edge learning opportunities, she is committed to empowering individuals, especially immigrant families, to thrive in their personal and professional lives. Her passion for helping others truly shines through in everything she does!
