Elizabeth Oyewole, BACP

Elizabeth Oyewole is a counsellor in the United Kingdom with seven years of professional experience and a BACP credential. She aims to help people feel supported and to build skills for managing difficult feelings. Elizabeth focuses on practical, steady progress rather than quick fixes. She works in English and accepts international clients.

Her approach is calm and collaborative. She listens first, then helps people name what is most pressing. Sessions often focus on stress, anxiety, depression, addictions, trauma and parenting concerns. Elizabeth also addresses issues such as abandonment, attachment difficulties, blended family strain, grief around illness or cancer, and caregiver stress.

Elizabeth uses attachment-based work to look at how early relationships shape current patterns. She uses client-centred methods to keep sessions focused on the person's priorities and strengths. Trauma-focused techniques are brought in when people need to process hurtful or overwhelming experiences.

Conversations are straightforward and practical. She helps people develop coping strategies, set small goals, and try out new ways of relating. Appointments may include talking, guided reflection, and planning simple steps to try between sessions.

People often come for help with control issues, codependency, substance use, separation or divorce, or chronic pain and illness adjustments. Elizabeth aims to create a steady space where change can be explored at a manageable pace.

How these approaches work in online therapy

Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early bonds influence current relationships and emotional patterns. Online sessions can help people notice those patterns, try new ways of connecting, and practise different responses in daily life.

Client-Centred Therapy focuses on the person's own goals and strengths. The therapist listens without directing, and helps the person find their own solutions. This approach is useful for building self-awareness and confidence in decision-making.

Trauma-Focused Therapy concentrates on processing past hurts in a paced way. It aims to reduce the immediate emotional charge of painful memories and support gradual recovery from traumatic or abusive experiences.

Choosing the right approach happens together. The therapist will talk with the person about needs, goals and preferences, and then suggest which methods to try first. Plans can be adjusted over time as progress and comfort change.

Online work offers practical flexibility through video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging. Video is good for face-to-face conversation and seeing non-verbal cues. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth or visual focus is limited. Chat and messaging suit brief check-ins, written reflection, or fitting support around a busy day. These options help people access therapy from different locations and at different times, making it easier to keep regular sessions.
