About Temitope

Temitope Adeshina is a BACP-registered counsellor practising in the United Kingdom with four years of professional experience. She works with people facing stress, anxiety, family and parenting concerns, self-esteem issues and major life changes. She also focuses on attachment and abandonment concerns, body image, caregiver stress and related relational difficulties.

Her background includes roles in mental health agencies, a grief service and school settings. Those roles shaped how she talks with people about loss, transition and identity. She has worked with a wide range of life stories and everyday struggles.

Temitope describes her style as integrative. She draws on client-centred listening, cognitive behavioural strategies and psychodynamic ideas to help people notice patterns, test new ways of coping and make small changes that matter. Sessions tend to be practical and conversational rather than formal or technical.

She pays attention to relationships and early experiences as ways to understand current problems. That can help when worries tie back to family of origin, attachment or commitment issues. She also uses solution-focused tools for clearer next steps when people want immediate practical change.

Sessions are offered in English and Yoruba. International clients are accepted. If someone is unsure what kind of session they want, she asks a few questions first and then suggests an approach to try in the initial meeting.

Therapeutic approaches and how online sessions fit

Temitope uses client-centred therapy, which means she listens carefully and helps people make sense of their experience in their own words. This approach suits those who want space to be heard and to build self-understanding.

She also uses cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT) to look at thoughts and behaviours that keep problems going. CBT is practical and can help with anxiety, low mood and everyday stress by testing small changes and new coping strategies.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Temitope will discuss your goals and preferences and suggest which methods to try. That decision is collaborative and can change as you try different ways of working together.

If you plan to meet online, please confirm current session formats before booking because the biography does not list specific options. Online sessions can make it easier to fit meetings around work, reduce travel time and allow shorter check-ins when life is busy. They can also allow a session without being on camera if video feels difficult, or a quieter conversation when bandwidth is limited. Registered or accredited professionals can help arrange the practical details so sessions fit into everyday life.
