About Adejare

Adejare Mcmillan is a Florida Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) with over 10 years of professional experience. He works with people facing LGBT concerns, relationship problems, trauma and abuse, grief, and depression. Adejare centers sessions on practical steps people can use to manage symptoms and make decisions about next actions.

He treats relationship difficulties by helping clients name patterns and practice clearer communication. For trauma and abuse he focuses on stabilizing reactions and building coping skills one step at a time. When grief or depression makes daily life feel heavy, he uses straightforward strategies to restore routine and increase manageable activity.

Adejare frames clients as the experts on their own stories and draws on their strengths to move forward. He avoids jargon and explains options in plain language so people can choose what feels workable. Sessions are collaborative; he helps people set short-term goals and test new approaches between meetings.

His background includes a decade of clinical work in Florida supporting people through loss, identity questions, and relationship strain. He has worked with issues connected to abandonment, attachment, adoption and foster care, and with people navigating alternative sexual cultures such as BDSM and kink. He also has experience addressing chronic illness, caregiving stress, and communication problems.

Sessions are held in English and he accepts international clients. Adejare uses a subscription-based scheduling model that can be canceled at any time. To begin, people complete a brief matching questionnaire and schedule their first session.

How evidence-based approaches translate to online sessions

Cognitive and behavioral techniques focus on noticing unhelpful thoughts and testing different behaviors. These methods help with depression, anxiety, and recurring relationship patterns by teaching specific skills and small experiments to change daily routines.



Stabilization and coping skill work emphasizes grounding, emotion regulation, and practical routines to reduce distress after trauma. This approach is about building tools to manage strong reactions before addressing deeper material.



Choosing the right approach is part of the work. The therapist and client review goals, symptoms, and preferences together and try methods that fit the client’s pace. Adjustments are made over time based on what helps most.



The biography does not list specific session formats, so confirm the current online options before booking. In general, online sessions can make scheduling easier and help fit therapy into a day with less travel. Phone sessions can be used for brief check-ins when video is difficult, and shorter sessions can fit around work breaks. These practical benefits often help people keep progress steady while they test different approaches.
