Adenike Oduwusi, BACP, NCPS

Adenike Oduwusi brings eight years of experience in counselling and psychotherapy to her practice. She trained as a psychotherapist and holds BACP and NCPS credentials. Adenike speaks English and Yoruba and works from the United Kingdom. She aims to create a calm space where people can talk about stress, anxiety, grief and other painful experiences.

Adenike uses practical, evidence-informed approaches and adapts them to each person’s needs. Sessions focus on what matters most to the client and on small, manageable steps that fit daily life. She pays attention to attachment patterns, personal stories and the values that shape choices.

Clients often come with concerns such as low self-esteem, depression, relationship strain, parenting pressures or burnout from care roles. Adenike also supports people facing life changes, chronic health challenges, migration-related stress and issues tied to prejudice and discrimination. Her work includes intimacy and commitment questions, forgiveness, and finding purpose.

Her style is warm and attentive. She listens for what is not said as well as what is spoken. Conversations are collaborative and paced to the individual, with an emphasis on clarity and practical tools when they help.

Sessions are available in several formats, including video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text messaging. International clients are welcome. To begin, a short matching questionnaire is used to help schedule an appointment and plan the first steps.

How Adenike’s approaches work in online therapy

Adenike often draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) to help people notice difficult thoughts and feelings and still move toward what matters to them. ACT is about clarifying values and taking small steps that reflect those values, which can help with anxiety, depression and life transitions.

She also uses Attachment-Based Therapy to look at how early relationships shape current patterns. This approach helps people understand closeness, trust and intimacy issues and supports changes in how they relate to others.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Adenike collaborates with each person to agree what methods fit their goals and preferences. She tailors sessions over time, combining elements from different approaches when that serves the client best.

Online work is offered through video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text messaging to give practical flexibility. Video suits deeper conversations where seeing each other helps, phone calls use less bandwidth, chat can be useful for short check-ins, and messaging allows ongoing written reflection between sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, caregiving or travel and to keep continuity when schedules change.
