About Folashade

Folashade Dada is a counsellor who focuses on practical, person-centred work. She uses clear talking, reflective listening, and structured exercises to help people who feel stuck by stress, anxiety, low mood or relationship difficulties. She welcomes conversation about loss, life changes and parenting pressures and aims to make sessions easy to follow for worried people scanning on a phone.

Folashade draws on a mix of approaches tailored to each person.

02

How Folashade works

She uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to help people notice thoughts and refocus on values. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy is used to identify unhelpful thinking and test new ways of coping. Attachment-based ideas help look at patterns that affect intimacy and communication.

Her practice also addresses sleeping problems, anger, career worries and challenges linked to health or caregiving. She supports people dealing with grief, abandonment themes, adoption and foster care matters, and body image concerns. The work is practical and paced to the individual’s needs.

Folashade holds BACP, which indicates accreditation with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy. She has four years of experience offering therapy in the United Kingdom and also accepts international clients in English. Sessions are offered in several formats to fit different schedules.

Sessions combine warm listening with focused tasks and short homework where helpful. Folashade aims to help people build clear coping skills and to make small, steady changes that fit their life.

Online support options

Approaches that translate well to online therapy

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice difficult thoughts without getting stuck and to choose actions that match their values; it suits stress, anxiety and life transitions. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) focuses on spotting unhelpful thoughts and testing new behaviours through practical exercises that can be done between sessions. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationships shape current patterns and can help when intimacy and communication cause pain.

Finding the best approach is something to do together. Folashade will discuss your goals and preferences in the first sessions and suggest which methods to try. That collaborative process lets you adjust focus as needs change, so the plan fits your circumstances and feels manageable.

Online therapy offers flexibility and a range of ways to take part. Video calls are useful for in-depth conversation and visual connection, phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited, and live chat or text sessions work well for short check-ins or when writing feels clearer. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, caregiving or travel, while keeping the therapeutic work consistent and goal-focused.
