Modupe Awonuga

Modupe Awonuga is a counsellor registered with the BACP - British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, with four years of clinical experience. She focuses on relationship and parenting concerns, low self-esteem, depression and coping with life changes. She also supports people working through issues such as abandonment, attachment difficulties, body image, guilt and shame, and questions about life purpose.

Modupe uses a mix of psychodynamic thinking, client-centred practice and trauma-informed care to help people untangle difficult patterns. Sessions are conversational and aimed at understanding feelings, past influences and current choices. She listens for recurring themes and helps clients consider different responses to familiar problems.

Her background includes an Advanced Diploma in Counselling plus further diplomas in Therapeutic and Psychotherapeutic Counselling. She completed trauma-informed training and has experience from a placement with NHS Talking Therapies, formerly IAPT. She also volunteers with a mental health organisation and stays active in professional development through supervision and workshops.

In practice she helps individuals who feel stuck in work or life to sort priorities and make clearer decisions. Modupe can help people manage low mood, regain confidence and address relationship patterns that keep repeating. Sessions may also include practical support such as advocacy and signposting for accessing other services.

She works in English and accepts international clients. The cost of sessions varies with location and they use a subscription model that can be cancelled at any time. To begin, clients complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session.

How therapeutic approaches are used in remote sessions

Attachment-based work looks at how early relationships shape current patterns. In online conversations this approach helps identify repeated ways of relating that cause pain and shows how new interactions can be tried out in everyday life.

Client-centred practice emphasises listening and validating the person's experience. The therapist offers open questions and reflections so clients can clarify their own priorities and make decisions that feel more possible.

Motivational Interviewing focuses on practical steps for change. It helps people weigh pros and cons, explore mixed feelings and build small, manageable goals when motivation is low.

Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. The therapist discusses goals and preferences with each person and together they choose methods that fit current needs. That collaborative planning can be revisited as things change.

The biography does not specify session formats, so confirm available options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life, allow shorter check-ins when time is limited, or remove the need to travel. Registered and accredited professionals often find remote sessions useful for continuity of care and for people who need more flexible scheduling.
