About Adebola
Adebola Ajayi is a counsellor and a member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP) with three years' experience in practice. She works with people who are facing stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, depression, relationship and family concerns, and issues around self-esteem and career. Sessions are conducted in English and she accepts clients in the United Kingdom and internationally.
Adebola uses a person-centred way of working that helps people notice and use their own voice. She combines that with practical tools from cognitive behavioural approaches to address unhelpful thoughts and patterns. The overall style is collaborative and direct, with a focus on what people want to change now.
She has worked with trauma, work-related issues and emotional difficulties arising from separation, grief and family problems. In sessions she helps people understand attachment patterns, communication problems and codependency dynamics. This can include looking at how guilt, shame or isolation affect day-to-day choices.
Adebola also draws on psychodynamic ideas to explore how past relationships shape current behaviour. Motivational interviewing and solution-focused techniques are used to set concrete goals and small, manageable steps. People can expect a mix of talking, reflective questions and practical exercises tailored to their concerns.
Her way of working suits people who want clear conversation about patterns that leave them drained. She supports planning next steps, improving boundaries, and finding ways to cope with life changes. To begin, follow the site prompts to match and book a first session.
How sessions work
How her approaches work in online sessions
Adebola combines person-centred work with cognitive behavioural therapy and motivational interviewing. Person-centred work focuses on helping people find their own perspective and voice, useful when someone feels they keep putting others first. Cognitive behavioural therapy looks at thoughts, feelings and behaviours and offers practical exercises to change unhelpful patterns. Motivational interviewing supports people who are unsure about change by exploring their reasons and finding internal motivation.Deciding which approach to use is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk with the client about goals, preferences and what feels most helpful. Sessions can shift over time so that reflection, skill-building or focused goal work are balanced according to progress.
Session formats are not specified in the biography, so confirm current options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when time is limited, and remove travel time. Registered or accredited professionals often use online sessions to keep continuity when life is hectic and to support steady progress toward practical goals.
