10 licensed therapists for career and workplace mental health

Career and Workplace Mental Health Therapists in Nigeria

Licensed therapists for what work does to your head: a boss who bullies, a layoff, a promotion you are terrified of, a career you chose for your parents, or the decision to leave the country. Sessions by video, voice or chat.

Focused support

Why see a therapist who focuses on career and workplace mental health

Work takes most of our waking hours, and in Nigeria it carries the weight of a whole family's expectations. A job loss is a crisis for everyone you support. An oga who humiliates staff in meetings, a workplace where harassment is normal, the constant am-I-good-enough of impostor syndrome, a career chosen to please your parents, or the choice between staying and leaving the country: these are mental health problems as much as career ones, and the therapists here treat them that way.

Sessions happen inside the Mytherapist.ng app, by video, voice or chat, so you can talk before work, at lunch in your car, or after hours. You book and pay in the app.

This page suits people recovering from a layoff or a long job search, anyone being bullied or harassed at work, professionals who are succeeding and still feel like a fraud, people stuck in a career they hate, and anyone whose work stress has started to show up as anxiety, insomnia or drinking. It also suits managers who are struggling with the weight of leading people.

A first session looks at what is happening at work, how it is affecting the rest of your life, and what you want: to cope better where you are, to decide about leaving, or to recover from something that happened.

Good to know

Questions people ask about career and workplace mental health

Is this career coaching or therapy?

Therapy. A career coach helps you plan the next move; the therapists here help with what work is doing to you, such as anxiety, burnout, lost confidence or the hurt of being bullied, and with the decisions that follow. Many people use both, and the therapist will say if a coach, a lawyer or an HR route would serve you better.

I just lost my job. Can therapy help?

Yes. Job loss hits identity, money and status all at once, and the first month is often the hardest. A therapist helps you handle the shame and fear, structure your days, manage the family questions and look for work without panic driving every decision. Our post on the first month after losing your job is a good start.

Can a therapist help with a toxic boss or bullying?

Yes. You cannot change your boss from a therapy session, but you can stop their behaviour defining how you see yourself, work out your options, record what is happening, and decide whether to raise it, stay or leave with a clear head.

Is it confidential?

Yes, with one limit. What you tell your therapist stays between you. The exception is a risk to life: if your therapist believes there's a real and immediate risk of serious harm to you or to someone else, including a child, they may need to act on it. That can mean contacting emergency services or someone who can reach you. They'll tell you when they're doing this, wherever it's safe to.

How much does it cost?

Each therapist sets their own rate, from ₦10,000 a session. Some therapists offer a student rate or a free first consultation, and it shows on their profile below.
