About Oludamilola

Oludamilola "Dami" Oladele helps people dealing with addictions, stress, anxiety and low self-esteem. He also supports those facing life changes and people trying to stop smoking or vaping. Dami works in English and Yoruba and practices in Australia as an AHPRA-registered clinician with three years' experience.

Dami keeps sessions simple and straightforward. He focuses on listening first, then helps clients set practical goals. Conversations aim to build confidence, strengthen coping skills and improve day-to-day functioning.

02

How Oludamilola works

He uses techniques drawn from acceptance and commitment therapy, cognitive behavioural therapy and solution-focused work. That means helping people notice unhelpful thoughts, try small experiments, and commit to actions that match their values. Trauma-focused methods inform his approach when past events are affecting current life.

Clients often come for help with communication problems, mood difficulties, midlife transitions and young adult issues. Dami also supports people wanting to build self-love and improve motivation. He creates a calm, non-judgemental space so people can speak honestly about what feels hard.

Starting therapy with him involves picking clear, manageable steps. Sessions aim to be collaborative and goal-oriented rather than long lectures. Dami is developing an independent practice and continues to learn through supervision and ongoing professional reading.

Online support options

Approaches that suit online counselling and practical change

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings without being driven by them. It encourages choosing actions that match your values, which can help with addiction, anxiety and motivation issues. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thinking patterns and testing different behaviours to reduce symptoms and improve mood. Solution-Focused Therapy looks at practical steps and small changes that move you toward your goals rather than analysing problems at length.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will discuss which methods fit your needs, goals and preferences. Together you will try strategies and adjust the plan based on what helps most, making decisions collaboratively rather than imposing a single method.

Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat or text-based messaging to suit different situations. Video is good when visual contact helps the conversation, phone works well when bandwidth is limited, chat can be useful for quick check-ins, and messaging suits short or flexible exchanges. These options make it easier to fit counselling around work, study and family life while still working with appropriately qualified or registered professionals.
