As a qualified counsellor, I provide a safe, confidential, and non-judgemental environment where I can help you gain insight into the less conscious aspects of your thinking, behaviour and feelings.There are many reasons why people come for counselling. Together we can explore and address concerns surrounding many different issues, ranging from; Bereavement and loss., Anxiety/fear.· Change: divorce, redundancy and many others.· Relationship issues.· Abuse: past or present, sexual, physical, mental or financial.· Confidence and self esteem.· Addictions.· Depression.· Eating disorders.
My role as a therapist is to help you find clarity and perspective so you can build healthy relationship with yourself and others and better manage your internal and external world. Over time, you will gain your own insights allowing you to feel more in control and able to trust in your own strengths and internal resources, allowing you to make the changes needed to improve your life and well-being. I work in a client-centred and collaborative way adopting different counselling approaches to suit the client's needs. However, I emphasize on the commitment of the client to therapy because they are the master of their own mind and experience.
There will be times that it may be challenging as we explore parts of ourselves we might prefer to avoid or feel are unacceptable. If we are willing to take the risk, within the safety of the therapeutic space, counselling rewards us with a deeper understanding of ourselves and enriches our lives with more awareness and meaning.

This therapist is genuinely an amazing one. She talks to you on a very human level, makes you feel heard and helps you to see a side of things you may have not seen before. She is an amazing listener and always asks you if her own thoughts of the situation actually reflect what you may be feeling, which i think is great as she doesnt force her view of the situation on you. Highly reccommend her!

Bola manages to make me see things from different perspectives, which has helped me gain clarity and approach challenges in healthier ways. She listens with patience and compassion, while also gently encouraging me to think deeper and challenge unhelpful patterns. I always leave our sessions feeling lighter, supported, and more empowered.

Bola is simply amazing!
I came to therapy feeling heavy, at a low point, and with a lot to deal with and heal from. It was my first time trying therapy, and I wasn't getting much help from a previous therapist. A friend recommended BetterHelp, and after registering, I was matched with my therapist, Bola.
Speaking with Bola was a breath of fresh air. Not only is she softly spoken, but she also listens well and always has a way of summing up what you're feeling and are unable to properly express. She's an absolute professional, very well grounded in her expertise, very empathetic and understanding, and, I must say, full of wisdom. Through her immense support, I was equipped with the tools to be and to continue to live a healthier and more fulfilling life.
I can only recommend her.

I had my first session with Abolanle a couple of days ago and I haven’t stopped thinking about it since. Within the first session of getting to know me, I had so many little realisations about myself, my behaviours, my relationships. Things that not many people would be intuitive enough to see at first glance. Bola mentioned more helpful insights within our first session than I had within 2 sessions with my previous therapist. I throughly enjoyed the session and my head was racing after. I’m very confident that Bola will help me process emotions and understand my patterns to help me get to the place I want to be! When reflecting, I wanted to pass on this feedback, as Bola clearly is a kind, compassionate person (especially to want to be in this line of work in the first place) but she is also very insightful and intuitive which is not a skill all people are blessed with. Thank you Bola ❤️
