About Adebola

Adebola Ajayi welcomes people looking for a straightforward, warm place to talk about stress, anxiety, trauma and life changes. She is introduced here by name so readers know who they will meet. Her style aims to be clear and down-to-earth for someone scanning on a phone.

Adebola uses a person-centred way of working that helps people find their own voice. She also draws on cognitive behavioural ideas to help with thinking patterns, and psychodynamic ideas to understand deeper feelings.

02

How Adebola works

Sessions are conversational and focus on what matters to the client now. She has three years of professional experience and is a member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, BACP. That membership is listed as her credential.

Her practice addresses a wide range of concerns including depression, grief, relationship and intimacy difficulties, parenting strains, and career questions. Additional areas she supports include attachment issues, codependency, communication problems, domestic violence, and post-traumatic stress. Adebola also helps people facing guilt, shame, loneliness, midlife questions and money worries.

Her approach aims to combine practical ideas with space to reflect on life patterns and meaning. Sessions are offered in English and she sees clients in the United Kingdom as well as international clients. People meet her for one-to-one work that mixes short-term coping strategies with longer conversations about past and present influences.

How her approaches translate to online therapy

Adebola blends person-centred work with cognitive behavioural techniques to help people online. Person-centred therapy focuses on listening and supporting a person's own discoveries, which can be useful for exploring feelings about relationships, parenting and life purpose. Cognitive behavioural therapy looks at thoughts and behaviours and offers practical exercises to manage anxiety, low mood or stress.

Finding the right approach is collaborative. Adebola will talk with each person about their goals and preferences and suggest which methods to try first. She adapts sessions over time so therapy matches what the person needs in the moment and the steps they want to take.

Online sessions use video calls, phone sessions, live chat or text-based messaging, offering practical flexibility. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation, phone sessions can be better when bandwidth is limited, live chat suits brief check-ins, and text messaging supports ongoing reflection between longer sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, family and travel commitments while keeping the therapeutic focus intact.
