Compassionate, practical counselling for life challenges
About Adetayo
Adetayo Abraham-Adeyemo offers calm, practical support for people feeling overwhelmed by stress, anxiety or life changes. She presents a warm, respectful manner and aims to build trust quickly so conversations can focus on what matters to the client. The first paragraph briefly introduces her and her style in an accessible way.
With ten years of experience, Adetayo draws on two main ways of working. She uses Client-Centred Therapy to listen closely and shape sessions around the client’s priorities.
Background and approach
She also uses Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, which looks at patterns of thought and behaviour that keep problems going. Sessions are collaborative and paced to the individual. She aims to help people notice small shifts that make daily life easier.
Practical ideas and short exercises are used when useful, alongside gentle reflection and empathic listening. Adetayo has helped people with stress, anxiety, relationship and intimacy-related issues, low self-esteem, career concerns and grief. Her practice also covers parenting strain, compassion fatigue, trauma and abuse, anger, depression and coping with midlife changes.
She offers support for additional concerns such as attachment issues, communication problems, isolation and life purpose. She is a British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy member, listed as BACP. Sessions are available in English and she works with international clients via online formats.
To begin, people complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule sessions according to the therapist’s availability.

How these approaches work online
Client-Centred Therapy asks the counsellor to follow the client’s lead, offering close listening and reflection so the person sets the pace and topics. It is useful for exploring feelings about relationships, grief and stress and for building confidence to make changes.Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, or CBT, focuses on how thoughts and behaviours keep problems going. Sessions often include short exercises and practical tasks to try between meetings, which can help with anxiety, low mood and coping with life transitions.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. The counsellor will discuss goals and preferences and together decide which methods to try. This is a collaborative process and can be adjusted as progress is made.
Online sessions offer practical flexibility. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation when visual cues help. Phone sessions are useful when connections are poor or a shorter check-in is needed. Live chat and text-based messaging suit people who prefer to write, want flexible timing or need brief support between calls. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, family and travel commitments.
