Adetayo Abraham-Adeyemo, BACP

Adetayo Abraham-Adeyemo offers calm, straightforward support for people feeling overwhelmed by stress, anxiety, relationship strain or life changes. She introduces a simple, compassionate way to talk about what matters and helps clients find practical steps forward. Sessions are collaborative and paced to the person's needs so conversations feel manageable.

Adetayo uses a blend of client-centred listening and cognitive behavioural methods to help people notice patterns and try new approaches. She focuses on everyday problems like work and career pressures, low mood, grief, anger and intimacy-related concerns. She also supports people dealing with trauma and abuse and those coping with caregiving or compassion fatigue.

Across ten years in practice she has worked with people facing midlife transitions, loneliness and identity questions. She brings attention to attachment, communication and commitment issues when these come up. Practical problem-solving and clearer thinking are combined with respect and sensitivity to each person's story.

Sessions are adapted to what each person prefers, using collaborative discussion and straightforward exercises when useful. Adetayo explains techniques in plain language and helps clients test small changes between sessions. The aim is to build sustainable ways to manage stress, improve relationships and find clearer direction.

She is registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, holds experience in coaching for career concerns, and works from the United Kingdom. Conversations are offered in English.

Approaches and online options for everyday problems

Adetayo combines client-centred counselling and cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT) in online work. Client-centred counselling focuses on listening, empathy and helping the person set the pace of sessions; it is useful when someone needs understanding and personal space to talk through issues. CBT helps people notice unhelpful thinking and behaviour patterns and practise small changes to reduce anxiety, low mood or relationship conflict.

Finding the right approach is part of the process. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences and what has or has not worked before, then try methods that match those needs. This is a collaborative process and approaches can be adapted as therapy progresses.

Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat or text-based messaging to fit different lifestyles. Video calls let people read facial cues and have a fuller conversation. Phone sessions work well when a lower bandwidth or a quicker check-in is needed. Live chat or messaging can suit short, frequent touchpoints or times when typing feels easier. These options make it simpler to fit therapy around work, caregiving and travel commitments.
