Foluso Orebiyi, BACP

Foluso Orebiyi is a counsellor with 13 years' experience working with people facing emotional pain and life changes. She practices in the United Kingdom and offers support in English and Yoruba. Foluso focuses on helping people find steadiness during stressful or overwhelming times.

Her sessions use a person-centred approach that puts the client’s experience first. She listens without judgement and helps people name feelings and patterns. That style makes it easier to try small changes and notice their effects.

Foluso also draws on cognitive and behavioural tools to help with unhelpful thinking and coping skills. She uses strategies from Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Dialectical Behaviour Therapy when they fit the situation. These tools are used alongside deeper work around attachment and important relationships.

She supports people dealing with anxiety, depression, trauma and abuse, grief, addiction, low self-esteem and relationship or intimacy-related issues. Foluso also helps with career questions, parenting strain, sleep problems, anger and managing major life transitions.

People can expect a mix of reflective conversation and practical techniques. Foluso sometimes uses coaching methods to help clients set direction and take steps towards goals. She aims to help people reconnect with strengths and build steady routines that support wellbeing.

Sessions are available online in several formats. International clients may be supported. Getting started involves a short matching questionnaire and scheduling to suit each person’s needs.

How her approaches work online

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, helps people notice unhelpful thoughts and commit to actions that match their values. It is useful for anxiety, stress and navigating life transitions. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationships affect current patterns and can help with trust, intimacy and connection difficulties.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Foluso will talk with each person about their goals and preferences and decide together which methods to try. That collaborative process means techniques are adapted to fit the client rather than forcing a single model.

Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat or text-based messaging to provide flexibility. Video calls let people use visual cues for deeper conversation. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or a shorter check-in is needed. Live chat and text messaging suit people who prefer writing to speak and who want brief, ongoing contact between sessions. These options make it simpler to fit therapy around work, family or travel commitments.
