Tina Ashiofu (she/her)

Tina is the owner of Ilera Psychological Services and is a Registered Provisional Psychologist.

Professionally, she has worked in social services, mental health, and community support, supporting individuals from diverse cultures and life stages. These experiences have shown her the strength and uniqueness in every person’s story.

On a personal level, she understands how anxiety, self-doubt, and life’s big questions can feel overwhelming. Coming from a family of five, she has seen firsthand how uncertainty can shape us—but also how support can make a difference. Her own journey has taught me that no one has to face their struggles alone, and it’s this belief that drives my work.

Today, she combines her education, professional experience, and personal understanding to create a safe, compassionate space for clients. Whether through therapy, advocacy, or simply listening, her goal is to help others find clarity, confidence, and their own path forward.
