My speciality as an accredited counsellor in the UK, is using CBT to work with and support young people, families, and couples. I help them to understand their trigger points, and find healthier ways to manage their emotional difficulties and trauma.
I have used my work to support people with a variety of mental health challenges, including anxiety, depression, low-mood, OCD, PTSD, work difficulties, relationship problems, bereavement, self-harm, suicidal thoughts and much more. I have also, spent a lot of time supporting people who have experienced emotional and physical abuse. My model is professional, holistic, empathic and non-judgemental with a focus on CBT, Person-centered, Humanistic, Integrative and psychodynamic. I listen to clients and treat them with respect. Working with the clients, I devise a strategy that meets their individual needs.
It is my ethos to encourage clients to be happy to focus on their own strengths and start to feel empowered.
I look forward to working with you, and giving you the tools to be in control of your emotions and changing your story.
Additional areas of focus: Adoption and Foster Care, Commitment Issues, Immigration Issues, Multicultural Concerns, Obsessions, Compulsions, and OCD, Postpartum Depression, Self-Harm, Young Adult Issues
Clinical approaches: Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Client-Centered Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)

Adeshalewa is the best therapist I've ever had. Not only she listens and tells her opinion with no judgement, but she also sends helpful material whenever I needed. She's highly professional.

I have had a few sessions now and can already feel progress, I came to therapy sceptical as I have had bad experiences with other providers in the past - but it has been worth the investment
