Adeniyi Charles Soyombo, BACP

Adeniyi Charles Soyombo is a counsellor based in the United Kingdom with four years of professional experience. He sees clients for concerns such as trauma, grief, depression and stress. He approaches work with the view that each person knows their life best and already has strengths to draw on. Seeking help is a brave step, and he aims to support people as they move towards a more fulfilling life.

With a background recorded as BACP, Adeniyi uses Client-Centred Therapy to create a respectful, non-judgemental space. This approach focuses on listening closely and following the client’s pace. He also draws on Existential Therapy to help people reflect on meaning, choice and values when life feels uncertain.

Sessions are practical and plainspoken. Conversations look at what is causing distress now and what might make things better. He helps people develop coping strategies for anxiety, sleeping problems, anger and addictions. Adeniyi also addresses relationship strains, communication problems and feelings of isolation.

Other areas he supports include guilt and shame, multicultural concerns, immigration issues and compassion fatigue. He works with post-traumatic stress, social anxiety and questions about life purpose and self-love. Where helpful, he explores forgiveness and control issues alongside practical steps.

People who appreciate calm, straightforward conversation tend to fit well with his style. He aims to empower people to make choices that match their values and goals. Adeniyi invites whoever is ready to take the next step to find out more about how he can help.

How his approaches work online and in conversation

Adeniyi uses Client-Centred Therapy to focus on each person’s experience and strengths. This way of working means the counsellor listens closely, mirrors what is said and helps people find their own solutions. It is useful for anxiety, low mood and problems with self-esteem.

He also draws on Existential Therapy to look at meaning, choice and values. This approach helps when someone is struggling with life purpose, loss or major change and wants to make clearer decisions about what matters to them.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. He will talk with clients about their needs, goals and preferences, and together they decide which methods to try. That collaborative process helps tailor sessions to what each person wants to get from therapy.

Online formats available include video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation; phone sessions work well when bandwidth is limited or for shorter check-ins. Live chat and text messaging suit people who prefer writing or need flexible, on-the-go options. These choices make therapy more accessible and easier to fit around work, family and daily life.
