Our story

From ChangeMakers Services to CM MindCare

ChangeMakers Mindcare was founded by Samuel Oyewole Ajayi with a simple vision: young people should not have to choose between silence and unaffordable care.

Backed by clinical psychologists, psychiatrists, and counsellors, we provide confidential professional support that helps students and youth work through stress, anxiety, addiction, and everyday mental health challenges.

Together, we are changing the story of mental health — one conversation at a time.

Mission

Provide affordable, anonymous, youth-friendly care — connecting young people with professionals anytime, anywhere.

Vision

A Nigeria where no student is left alone with their mental health because help felt too far, too costly, or too exposed.

How we work

Confidential first-line counselling, with a clear path to senior psychiatrists when a case needs deeper clinical care.

What we help with

Care for real-life pressure

Stress & burnout

Support for academic pressure, work strain, and exhaustion before it becomes a crisis.

Anxiety & depression

Compassionate care for worry, low mood, panic, and the weight that is hard to name.

Addictions

Specialised support for substances, gambling, and compulsive habits that feel hard to stop.

Psychiatric & emotional challenges

A path to senior psychiatrists when symptoms are severe, persistent, or unsafe to hold alone.
