About Ronke

Ronke Adeyemi is a BACP-registered counsellor with eight years of clinical experience in the United Kingdom. She holds an MA in Counselling and Psychotherapy and a post-qualification diploma in Couples Counselling. Ronke has worked in hospices, domestic abuse charities and private practice, and she also completes ADI-R assessment interviews alongside therapeutic work.

She helps people facing depression, anxiety, relationship challenges, trauma and bereavement. She also supports those dealing with self-esteem, identity and cultural concerns. Codependency and intimacy-related worries are among the issues she addresses in sessions.

Her approach blends several evidence-informed methods. She uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to help people notice thoughts and move toward meaningful action. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy is used to identify unhelpful thinking patterns. Attachment-Based ideas and Emotionally-Focused Therapy inform work around relationship patterns and emotional connection.

Ronke has experience working with neurodivergent clients and conducts structured assessment interviews for neurological evaluations. Her background in hospices and domestic abuse services informs how she works with grief, trauma and people living with complex stressors.

In practical terms sessions focus on clear goals and steady progress. She supports people to set boundaries, address people-pleasing and cope with the effects of another person’s behaviour. People can expect collaborative, straightforward sessions that aim to build skills and clarity.

How sessions work

How her approaches translate to online work

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy helps people notice unhelpful thoughts and choose values-based actions rather than getting locked into rumination. It suits people who want to reduce avoidance and take small practical steps toward goals. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early and current relationships shape trust and emotional responses, and it can help with intimacy and codependency patterns people bring into adult relationships.

Choosing the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. The counsellor will discuss goals, preferences and what feels most helpful, and will work with the client to decide which methods to use. That means trying practical exercises together and reviewing what helps most over time.

Session formats are not specified in the biographical summary, so please confirm the current options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life, for example by avoiding travel, allowing shorter check-ins during a lunch break, or making it possible to meet from a quieter place without being on camera. Registered or accredited professionals often find that many therapeutic tasks translate well to remote sessions, including talking therapy, behavioural experiments and emotion-focused exercises.
