AYAKO is an evaluation service rooted in a fusion of the ethos of a West African traditional marriage, systems engineering, and psychology. In essence this integration creates a powerful approach to fostering healthy and successful marriages by integrating the problem solving of systems engineering, the individual and relational insights of psychology, and the rich cultural wisdom of West African traditions. By blending these fields a matrix framework is created that addresses not only the individual psychological needs of partners but also the systemic dynamics of the relationship within the context of family culture and community.
Developed by Dr. Alabi Adesina (EDDCP), an Education and Counseling Psychologist, AYAKO offers structured insights into the current state of a marital union, helping COUPLES identify strengths and challenges using a six-function framework.
The goal is not to judge, but to guide — offering a mirror to your relationship through a professional, confidential, and culturally aware process.
