Tolulope Elizabeth Fakunle, HCPC

Tolulope Elizabeth Fakunle works as a counsellor in the United Kingdom and brings eight years of professional experience to her practice. She is registered with the Health and Care Professions Council, HCPC. Her style is calm and straightforward, aimed at helping people facing everyday pressures and deeper emotional concerns.

She focuses on stress and anxiety, depression, relationship and intimacy-related issues, and addiction matters. She also supports people dealing with trauma and abuse, grief, eating and sleeping problems, and the strain of parenting and caregiving. Tolulope pays attention to how attachment, body image and communication problems affect day-to-day life.

Sessions are practical and person-centred. She treats each person as the expert on their own life and works alongside them to find workable steps forward. Conversations are steady and respectful, with tools introduced that people can use between meetings.

Tolulope uses a mix of approaches to suit different needs, including acceptance and commitment ideas, cognitive behaviour techniques, emotion-focused work and dialectical skills. She adapts methods depending on the concern and the person’s preferences. This flexible approach helps when coping with life changes, career choices, or questions of meaning and self-worth.

She offers help in English and Yoruba and provides sessions through video, phone, live chat or text-based messaging. To begin, users follow the site Start Therapy button, complete a short matching questionnaire, and schedule sessions according to availability.

Approaches that guide online conversations

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, focuses on helping people notice their thoughts and feelings without being led by them. It encourages identifying values and taking small steps towards a meaningful life, which can help with anxiety, depression and life transitions.

Client-Centred Therapy puts the person’s experience at the centre. The therapist listens with warmth and respect, helping people feel heard and clearer about their next steps. This approach is useful for building self-trust and working through relationship or self-esteem concerns.

Finding the right method is part of the work together. Tolulope will talk with each person about needs, goals and preferences and then suggest approaches that fit. The choice of technique is collaborative and may change as progress is made.

Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone, live chat or text-based messaging to make therapy more flexible. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation, phone calls require less bandwidth, and live chat or messaging can suit short check-ins or people who prefer writing. These options help fit sessions around work, caregiving or other commitments and make it easier to keep continuity of care.
