How Olufunmilayo works

The therapist listens closely and helps people notice what already helps them cope. Olufunmilayo has five years of professional experience and holds BACP registration. She has worked with issues such as self-esteem, motivation, depression and coping with life changes.

She also supports people facing trauma, intimacy concerns, sleep or eating difficulties and chronic pain or illness.

How client-centred methods work online

Client-Centred Therapy places the person’s experience at the centre of the work. The therapist listens without judgement and helps the client clarify their own goals and values. This style is useful for anxiety, depression, low self-esteem and relationship concerns because it builds on what already helps the individual.

In practice Olufunmilayo aims to be collaborative about approach. She will talk with each person about what feels most helpful and adapt the way they work together. Finding the right fit is part of the therapy process and decisions are made together based on needs, goals and preferences.

Online sessions are offered as video calls, phone sessions, live chat or text-based messaging to make therapy easier to fit into daily life. Video calls let people use visual cues, while phone sessions need less bandwidth and can suit shorter check-ins. Live chat and text messaging provide flexible options for quick reflections or ongoing support between calls.
