About Adeshalewa
Adeshalewa Kolawole is a counsellor practising in the United Kingdom with ten years of experience. She holds BACP accreditation, which is shown as BACP. She draws on several approaches to help people manage stress, anxiety and low mood.
Her style is calm and direct. She listens and treats people with respect. Sessions focus on identifying what sets off strong feelings and building practical ways to cope day to day.
Adeshalewa uses Client-Centred Therapy alongside Cognitive Behavioural Therapy and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy. That means she pays attention to what matters to each person, works on patterns of thinking and behaviour, and helps people choose values-based action. The work can include practical coping skills, checking how thoughts affect mood, and planning small steps forward.
She has supported people dealing with trauma and abuse, obsessive thoughts, postpartum depression, self-harm and relationship strain. She also offers help for immigration and multicultural concerns, adoption and foster care related issues, and challenges often faced by young adults.
Her approach aims to be non-judgemental and collaborative. Together with the person she will plan a strategy that fits their needs and builds on their strengths. People who want clear tools and a caring listener may find this approach helpful.
How Client-Centred, ACT and CBT work online
Client-Centred Therapy focuses on hearing what matters to the person and creating a respectful, accepting space. It helps when someone needs a supportive listener and someone who follows their pace.Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, helps people name their values and take small steps towards them despite difficult thoughts or feelings. It can be useful for persistent anxiety, low mood and motivation problems. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, or CBT, looks at thinking and behaviour patterns and introduces practical skills to reduce distress and manage symptoms such as obsessive thoughts or panic.
Choosing the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will discuss needs, goals and preferences and then agree what to try together. That may mean combining elements from different methods to suit the person.
The practical benefits of online therapy include more flexibility to fit sessions around work, study or family routines, and the ability to use tools like worksheets or screen-sharing during a meeting.
