About Olubunmi
Olubunmi Jones is a BACP-registered counsellor in the United Kingdom with four years of practice. She works with adults dealing with stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, grief, sleep problems, depression, parenting strains, low self-esteem and codependency. She also supports people facing life transitions and compassion fatigue.
She offers individual and group work and focuses on building a trusting relationship with each person. Sessions are practical and conversational. She helps people name how their past and present affect choices and relationships.
Olubunmi uses a relational way of working that draws on attachment ideas. She also blends client-centred listening and existential questions about meaning and responsibility. In sessions she invites reflection, gentle challenge and practical ways to try new boundaries or routines.
People who come to her talk through how they give too much, lose themselves, or cope around someone else’s mood or drinking. She pays attention to family of origin patterns, abandonment, attachment, body image, chronic illness and difficulties around fertility or parenting.
Her approach includes mindfulness practices to help with sleep and anxiety, and narrative techniques to unpack repeated life patterns. She works to clarify what matters to the person and what small, manageable steps could look like day to day.
How sessions work
How her approaches translate to online work
Olubunmi often uses attachment-based ideas in her work, which look at how early relationships shape current patterns. This approach helps when someone keeps putting others first, has trouble saying no, or struggles with abandonment fears. It supports clearer boundaries and understanding of repeating relationship habits.She also uses client-centred counselling, which means listening closely and following the person’s pace. This helps people feel heard and to make choices from a clearer place. Existential questions are used when someone is facing big life changes or a sense of emptiness, focusing on values, responsibility and what gives life meaning.
Finding the right approach is part of the process. The therapist will work collaboratively to decide which methods suit the person’s goals and preferences. That might mean combining attachment work with mindfulness or narrative techniques over several sessions.
Please confirm the currently offered session formats before booking, as these are not specified here. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life, reduce travel time and allow short check-ins around work or caring duties. It can also let someone choose whether to use video, audio or another supported option depending on what feels most practical.
